Benylin Dry & Tickly Cough Syrup 150ml

Benylin Dry and Tickly Cough Syrup soothes the tickly sensation that makes you want to cough. The irritation in the throat produces a tickly sensation and you cough, even though there's no mucus or phlegm to cough up. The glycerol and demineralised liquid sugar in this non-drowsy formula help to soothe the tickling sensation of your cough so that you can get back to your day. A dry & tickly cough is a non-productive cough and no phlegm is produced. If you have a dry cough, your cough may feel tickly, and you won’t produce phlegm or mucus.
