    Numark Adult Dry Cough Linctus eases irritating, tickly dry coughs that don't produce mucus (thick phlegm), also known as non-productive coughs. Containing dextromethorphan, a potent cough suppressant, this oral solution helps to reduce a dry cough by blocking the nerve signals that trigger coughing. Then it prevents the muscle from activating the coughing centre. This dry cough medicine is suitable for adults and children aged seven and above and contains the active ingredient dextromethorphan hydrobromide.

FAQ

  • Why do I have a dry cough?

    Your dry cough may be down to various conditions:

    • Allergies
    • Heartburn
    • Asthma or other lung conditions
    • Smoking

    Dry coughs don't make you expel phlegm (mucus) unlike chesty coughs which cause you to cough up catarrh (mucus). Usually, a dry cough is temporary, however it can last longer. If your dry cough lasts for more than eight weeks, it's known as a chronic cough (in adults). A chronic cough in children lasts four weeks.
