    Covonia Original Bronchial Balsam Syrup relieves a non-productive coughs such as those associated with the common cold and bronchitis. Covonia Original Bronchial Balsam Syrup gives a fast-acting syrup for suppressing coughs, relieving irritation in the chest or sore throat.

    Covonia original bronchial balsam syrup contains two active ingredients; dextromethorphan and menthol.

    Dextromethorphan is a type of medicine called a cough suppressant. It works by blocking the cough reflex.

    Dextromethorphan reduces the nerve signals that are sent from a part of the brain called the coughing centre to the muscles that produce coughing. This reduces the urge to cough.

    Menthol has mild cooling and decongestant properties that help soothe a cough and ease congestion in the nasal passages and lungs.
