Buttercup Cough Syrup, Original 200ml (A)

**Suitable for 12 years of age and above**

Buttercup Syrup gives rapid relief for symptoms of coughs, colds and sore throats.

It contains two active ingredients which help it to do this:

• Squill liquid extract, which is a plant extract and has a mild expectorant effect. This means it loosens mucus by making it thinner, therefore making it easier to cough up, and allowing you to clear you airways easier.
• Capsium Tincture, which gives the medicine an aromatic, warming flavour.

These ingredients combine with a syrup base which coats and soothes the throat and relieves irritation.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE:

• For oral use only. Shake bottle before use.
• Adults, the elderly and children over 12 years: Two 5ml spoonfuls three times a day and at bedtime, if the cough is troublesome.
• Do not use for more than one week.
