For relief from a dry cough

The easy application of the herbal medicinal product is also convincing: Simply adjust the amount of the syrup with the enclosed measuring cup, take it and let it work in the mouth and throat for a short time. In addition, it is recommended not to eat or drink 30 minutes after taking the Phytohustil® cough stimulant syrup in order to allow the protective film to form optimally.
