GRINTUSS ADUL SYRUP
180 g
DRY AND CHESTY COUGHS
MEDICAL DEVICE
Grintuss syrups are medical devices composed of PolIresin® - a plant-based complex - and Honey that act both during the dry cough phase, counteracting inflammation of the mucosa, and during the mucus phase, promoting hydration and removal of mucus from the upper airways.
Grintuss syrups exert a protective, soothing and anti-inflammatory physiological action on the upper respiratory tract through the following mechanisms of action:
· Barrier - Forms a protective film on the mucosa and protects it from contact with irritants.
· Antioxidant - Reduces free radicals generated by inflammation of the mucosa.
· Mucoregulatory - Helps to hydrate the mucus of the upper airways, thereby making it less viscous and easier to clear.
· Lubricating - Reduces friction between the epiglottis and pharynx while coughing, thereby counteracting the vicious cycle that contributes to inflammation.
· Hydrating - Helps to preserve the integrity and functionality of the mucosa.
Grintuss syrups modulate the cough without suppressing it, respecting the important role coughing plays in protecting the airways.
INDICATIONS: treatment of dry and chesty coughs, for both coughs in the acute phase and persistent coughs.
EFFICACY AND SAFETY: in a comparative clinical trial with placebo (Canciani et al. 2014)1, which was conducted in 102 children (aged 3-6 years) with acute and persistent cough for more than 7 days, it was found that Grintusssignificantly reduced both daytime and night-time coughs, and was particularly effective in the subgroup of children with more intense coughs.
The study also confirmed the product's high safety profile.
