Description

Buttercup BronchoStop Cough Pastilles – 10 Pack

Buttercup BronchoStop Cough Pastilles are herbal pastilles used to help relieve the symptoms of both dry and chesty coughs, as well as throat irritation associated with bronchitis. They are suitable for adults and children aged 12 and over.

⸻

How It Works

The active ingredient, thyme herb dry extract, has natural antispasmodic and expectorant properties. This means it helps to calm the cough reflex, reduce throat irritation, and loosen mucus — making it easier to clear your airways whether your cough is dry or chesty. The pastille dissolves slowly in the mouth, allowing the active ingredient to work directly on the throat and airway lining.

⸻

Directions for Use

Adults and children aged 12 and over: dissolve one pastille slowly in the mouth. Take up to 6 pastilles per day as needed, spaced throughout the day. Do not chew the pastilles — allow them to dissolve fully. This medicine is not recommended for children under 12 years of age. Always read the patient information leaflet before use. If you are unsure about the correct dose, speak to your PillSorted pharmacist.
