HOW IT WORKS?

Mechanism of action

Ayurcalm can work by a variety of mechanisms such as

Antitussive effect:Helps to suppress the cough reflex. This is often achieved by acting on the cough center in the brain.

Expectorant effect: Helps to loosen mucus and phlegm so that they can be coughed up more easily. This is often achieved by stimulating the production of mucus or by breaking down mucus.

Anti-inflammatory effect: Helps to reduce inflammation in the airways. This can help to relieve symptoms such as a sore throat and chest tightness.

Immunomodulatory effect:Helps to modulate the immune system. This can help to prevent or shorten the duration of a cough.

Benefits of Ayurvedic cough syrups

• Relieves various cough types: Ayurvedic cough syrups are formulated to relieve dry, wet, and allergic coughs by soothing the throat, suppressing the cough reflex, and clearing mucus.
• Supports immunity: Herbs like tulsi, ginger, and honey possess immune-boosting properties that help the body fight off respiratory infections and support overall healing.
• Non-drowsy formulation: Unlike many conventional cough suppressants, most Ayurvedic syrups are non-sedative and free of alcohol. This allows for clear-headed, daytime use without impairment.
• Addresses the root cause: Rather than just suppressing symptoms, these syrups address the underlying imbalances in the body that may contribute to respiratory issues.
• Safe for long-term and sensitive use: The natural, plant-based ingredients make Ayurvedic syrups gentle on the system and generally safe for regular or long-term use for recurring coughs. They are also often suitable for children, with appropriate dosage under medical guidance.
