A persistent cough or sore throat can make daily life uncomfortable and tiring. Buttercup Original Cough Syrup is a traditional remedy, trusted by families for generations, to bring gentle, effective relief from all kinds of coughs—whether dry, tickly, or chesty—as well as the symptoms of colds and sore throats. This herbal syrup is perfect for use at home, work, or school and is easy to take for adults and older children.
How Does Buttercup Original Cough Syrup Work?
Buttercup Original Cough Syrup contains two key herbal ingredients:
- Squill Liquid Extract (0.0031ml per 5ml): Traditionally used as an expectorant to help loosen and clear mucus from the chest, making coughs more productive and easing breathing.
- Capsicum Tincture (0.0025ml per 5ml): A natural warming agent that helps to soothe sore throats, reduce irritation, and bring comfort to inflamed airways.
This combination not only calms the cough reflex but also supports the body’s natural recovery from colds and respiratory discomfort.
