One of the best ways to be initiated into herbal medicine is by using a herbal cough syrup. This tonic is designed for dry, irritating and unproductive coughs where the cough is interrupting sleep or is otherwise known as ‘unproductive’.

Cough Medicine is now Liquoice free for those who need to avouid Liquorice due to high blood pressure, this soothing demulcent cough elixir will to help finish off the lingering viral or bacterial by-product – a dry cough. Polysaccharides in Marshmallow and root and Ribwort leaf combined with saponins from Kumerahou leaf, an Aotearoa native, soothe the mucous membranes in the respiratory tract leading to reduced inflammation in the lungs, soothing a cough instantly. Kumerahou is wild harvested here in New Zealand, supporting local iwi. Wild Cherry has an anti-tussive action reducing the cough reflex, plus Ribwort, a classic lung soother which is able to help soothe a dry cough.
