For the cough that hangs on after a cold, or the tickle that starts every time you talk. 150ml bottle, pharmacy-only, for adults and children over 12.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy dextromethorphan\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA dry cough has nothing to bring up; it's a reflex misfiring. Dextromethorphan acts on the cough centre in the brain to turn that reflex down, which is why it's the standard cough suppressant, and why it's kept for dry coughs: on a chesty cough it would trap the mucus you need to clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to take\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdults and children over 12: 10ml up to four times a day, using the measuring cup, no more than 40ml in 24 hours. Not for under-12s. Don't take with any other cough and cold medicine. If the cough lasts more than a few days, see a pharmacist or GP.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot within 14 days of an MAOI or alongside SSRI antidepressants (risk of serotonin syndrome), and not with asthma, COPD or a chesty cough without advice. Stick to the dose: dextromethorphan taken in excess can cause dependence, which is why the pack carries an addiction warning.
