Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture Mentholated Expectorant 300ml

When a chesty cough strikes, you need a medicine that works to clear the congestion and soothe your throat. Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture Mentholated Expectorant 300ml combines active ingredients to effectively relieve the symptoms of chesty coughs, including phlegm and congestion, and eases sore throats.

How Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture Works

This powerful expectorant contains a blend of active ingredients designed to provide comprehensive relief:

• Menthol: Known for its cooling and decongestant properties, menthol helps to relieve the feeling of congestion in your chest and airways, making breathing easier.
• Liquorice Liquid Extract & Squill Tincture: These are traditional expectorants that work by helping to loosen and thin the mucus and phlegm in your chest. This makes it easier for you to cough up and remove the excess phlegm, clearing your airways.

Together, these ingredients work to calm irritation, reduce the discomfort of a chesty cough, and support your body in clearing the respiratory tract. It's a non-drowsy formula, allowing you to get on with your day.
