Buttercup Syrup Original 150ml

**Suitable for 12 years of age and above**

Buttercup Syrup gives rapid relief for symptoms of coughs, colds and sore throats.

It contains two active ingredients which help it to do this:

• Squill liquid extract, which is a plant extract and has a mild expectorant effect. This means it loosens mucus by making it thinner, therefore making it easier to cough up, and allowing you to clear you airways easier.
• Capsium Tincture, which gives the medicine an aromatic, warming flavour.

These ingredients combine with a syrup base which coats and soothes the throat and relieves irritation.

Adults and children over 12 years of age:

Two 5ml spoonfuls, three times a day and at bedtime when the cough is troublesome.

Keep out of sight and reach of children.

If symptoms persist, or this medicine upsets you in any way, consult your doctor.

As with all medicines if you pregnant, breast feeding, or taking any other medication, consult your doctor before taking this product.

If you exceed the stated dose, consult your doctor or casualty department.
