Cough mixture 450ml The Ayurveda Arkashala best buy

Detailed Ingredient Information

The efficacy of this mixture is rooted in its high concentration of bronchodilatory herbs:

• Vasa (Adhatoda vasica / Adulsa): The primary active ingredient, rich in vasicine, which acts as a powerful expectorant and bronchodilator.

• Yashtimadhu (Glycyrrhiza glabra): Provides a demulcent effect to soothe a sore throat and reduce inflammation.

• Bibhitaki (Terminalia bellirica): Known for its astringent properties that help clear throat infections and pacify Kapha.

• Sunthi (Zingiber officinale): Warming ginger that aids in breaking down mucus and boosting immunity.

• Pippali (Piper longum): A respiratory tonic that enhances the absorption of the other herbs.

• Dhataki (Woodfordia fruticosa): Used as a natural fermenting agent for the self-generated alcohol base.

• Cashew Apple Juice: Traditionally used in specific Arkashala batches to provide a natural nutritional and soothing base.

Key Therapeutic Benefits

• Mucolytic Action: Effectively liquefies thick, sticky phlegm, making it easier to cough up and clear the lungs.

• Soothes Throat Irritation: Calms the “tickle” in the throat that causes persistent dry coughing.

• Bronchial Relaxation: Helps dilate the airways, providing relief from chest tightness and mild wheezing.

• Non-Sedative: Unlike many allopathic syrups, it does not contain antihistamines that cause sleepiness, allowing for use during work or study.

• Wide Range of Use: Indicated for common cold, bronchitis, smokers’ cough, and allergic respiratory distress.

Precautions

• Diabetes: The syrup contains a sugar/jaggery base; diabetic patients should consult their physician before use.

• Pregnancy: High doses of Adulsa (Vasa) can stimulate uterine contractions; pregnant women must seek medical advice.

• Alcohol Content: Contains self-generated alcohol (up to 12% v/v), which is a natural byproduct of the Ayurvedic fermentation process.

• Dosage: * Adults: 10–20 ml (2-4 teaspoonfuls) 2–3 times a day with lukewarm water.

  • Children: 5 ml (1 teaspoonful) 2–3 times a day or as directed by a pediatrician.
