An in-depth discussion of this theme can be found under the heading cough because when this disturbance becomes chronic it’s necessary to study the possible causes in order to treat it. The classic cough due to a winter cold must be attended to immediately with a series of effective remedies that should always be kept on hand as a sort of first aid kit.

Minerals that have an anti-infection action, such as Copper (from 2 to 6 doses per day to be gradually reduced) or Oximix 1+ (4-5 doses per day to be reduced as symptoms subside).

An important anti-infection agent such as Melaleuca Essential Oil can be taken orally, as shown in the video about this remedy.

The following homeopathic medicines can be used immediately: Antimonium tartaricum 30 CH (if the cough is dry) or Bryonia 5 CH ( if the cough is productive) to be used along with Orthohistaminum 9CH. Take 3 granules of Antimonium or Bryonia and 3 granules of Orthohistaminum.

Among the cough syrups that can be used, we suggest Stodal ( 1 tbsp 4-5 times per day) or Corotuss at the same dosage. In the case of a winter cough aggravated by pollution, it is important to take a sulphuric preparation as well.
