Dr. Wang Xingsheng
For dry cough, compound licorice tablets may be taken orally under a physician’s guidance. These tablets not only suppress coughing and help expel phlegm but also provide nourishment to the respiratory tract. As a commonly used traditional Chinese patent medicine, they are also indicated for bronchial asthma and bronchitis. Alternatively, cough syrup may be taken orally to alleviate symptoms, offering cough-suppressing and lung-moistening effects.
