Mucoplant

Mucoplant products are available in the form of syrups, with various compositions and strengths, tailored to the needs of users.

For example, there is Mucoplant syrup form with extract of prickly pear extract to relieve irritative cough or Mucoplant syrup form with extract of prickly pear, echinacea and vitamin C. These forms allow easy administration and are available in 250 ml bottles.

Mucoplant products are indicated for the relief of dry irritative cough or productive cough caused by respiratory conditions such as colds or other upper respiratory tract infections.

The soothing effect of extract of poppy leaf has a calming effect on irritated mucous membranes, helping to protect them and reduce cough symptoms.

Mucoplant is also useful in cases of productive cough, as it has expectorant effects, making it easier to clear accumulated mucus from the airways.

The recommended dose depends on the patient's age, the type of product and the doctor's recommendations.

For children between 3 and 6 years of age, ½ teaspoon (2.5 ml) 3 times a day is recommended.

For schoolchildren, the dose is 1 teaspoon (5 ml) 3 times a day, and adults may take 1 tablespoon of syrup (15 ml) 3 times a day.
