I have a sore throat and a dry cough. Which cough syrup should I take?

Asked by Female, 35 · 10 days ago

For a dry cough, an over-the-counter cough suppressant containing dextromethorphan is generally recommended to help quiet the cough reflex. For your sore throat, you can use throat lozenges containing active ingredients like amylmetacresol, or soothing demulcents. Simple home remedies like warm water with honey and staying well-hydrated can also provide significant relief. If you also have mild body aches or pain, paracetamol or ibuprofen can help. Please consult a local pharmacist to ensure these are safe for you, especially if you have other health conditions. Seek medical attention if your symptoms worsen, or if you develop a high fever or difficulty breathing.
