A persistent tickly cough can significantly disrupt your daily routine and affect your sleep. When you suffer from a dry cough without mucus, the constant urge to cough can be exhausting for your body. Noscapect 40 Tablets offers a targeted solution by effectively suppressing the cough reflex, helping you find rest and comfort for the whole family again.
- Suppresses the cough reflex immediately thanks to the active ingredient noscapine, meaning you need to cough less often.
- Specially developed for dry coughs and tickly coughs, allowing your throat and airways to rest.
- Easy-to-swallow film-coated tablets that ensure accurate dosage per intake.
- Suitable for both adults and children from 6 years old, making it a practical choice for the home medicine cabinet.
How it works
The active ingredient in this medicine is noscapine hydrochloride. Unlike medicines that dissolve mucus, noscapine specifically targets the suppression of the cough reflex in the brain. This makes it an effective support for types of cough where no mucus is produced, also known as a non-productive cough. As your trusted health partner, VitAdvice always advises reading the package leaflet carefully for safe use within your daily routine.
