About Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture
The strong dark stuff: Covonia's mentholated mixture has been clearing troublesome chesty coughs since 1968 with squill, liquorice and a levomenthol hit you can feel on the way down. The big bottle for a household that gets through winter on it. Non-drowsy, unmistakably Covonia, and this is the 300ml bottle.
Why people swear by the menthol wallop
Squill and liquorice are traditional expectorants that help loosen thick phlegm so it can be coughed up, but it's the mentholated vapour rising through the airways that gives Covonia its following: the immediate sense of a chest opening up. Gentler syrups exist; this isn't trying to be one.
How to take
Adults and children over 12: one or two 5ml spoonfuls every four hours as needed. Children 5 to 12: one 5ml spoonful every four hours. Not for under-5s. The taste is strong; that's rather the point.
Good to know
Each dose contains about 2.6g of sugar and a small amount of alcohol, so allow for it with diabetes, and don't use with a heart condition. A cough that lasts more than three weeks, or comes with breathlessness, chest pain or blood, needs a GP. See our full cough and cold range.

Frequently asked questions
How is this different from the 150ml?
Same mixture, twice the volume, and better value per dose. The 150ml is the one to try first if you haven't had Covonia before.
Can I take it with paracetamol?
Yes. It contains no paracetamol or decongestant, so it sits alongside a cold and flu remedy. Don't double up with another cough medicine.
Is it suitable for diabetics?
It contains about 2.6g of sugar per 5ml dose. Many people with diabetes can allow for that, but Covonia's sugar-free chesty syrup is the easier choice.
