Store out of reach of children.

How do they differ from other respiratory support blends?

The following are all words used to describe a cough: barking, croupy, deep, dry, hacking, hollow, in fits, loose, racking, rattling, suffocative, and whooping. A cough can be productive or non-productive. Worse during certain times of day and in certain conditions. Accompanied by a wide variety of additional symptoms and so much more.

Thus, there is a need for a wide variety of formulas to treat coughs! Each contains a slightly different combination of herbs to address the different types of coughs. We cannot diagnose or prescribe which products you should use so work with a qualified healthcare provider to decide what's best.

What else should I know?
Some people with ragweed allergies cannot tolerate Elecampane. Please always consult with your healthcare provider before adding anything new.
