Do you have a child with chronic bronchitis?
In addition to treating coughs, Prospan® by Helixia® Kids helps improve the respiratory function of kids with chronic bronchitis.
Did you know?
Even if you’ve taught your kids to cough into a tissue or into their upper sleeve, it’s still important that they wash their hands after coughing to keep their germs from spreading. Yes, they may complain, but your household will be happier in the end!
Efficacy
How does dried ivy leaf extract work?
-
1 Dried ivy leaf extract, the active ingredient in Prospan® by Helixia® Kids, liquefies the sticky mucus trapped in the airways of the lungs.
-
2 It then acts as an expectorant, allowing the mucus to be coughed up more easily.
-
3 The air passages relax and widen. As a result, it helps you breathe better.
