Tulsi and mulethi come together to create one of Ayurveda’s most soothing cough remedies. Learn benefits, safety, and when to see a doctor.

Ayurveda’s Approach to Cough Relief

Coughs are often signs of aggravated Kapha or dryness in Vata. Ayurveda turns to herbs like tulsi and mulethi that soothe tissues, open the chest, and promote easy breathing—without suppressing natural healing.

Why Tulsi + Mulethi Works

  • Tulsi: Warming, immune-supportive, opens respiratory channels.
  • Mulethi: Cooling, demulcent, lubricates the throat.

How to Use Herbal Cough Syrup Safely

Adults may take 1 tsp every 4–6 hours. Children require adjusted dosing based on age; always consult a pediatrician or practitioner.

Home Care Tips Alongside the Syrup

  • Warm water sips throughout the day.
  • Steam inhalation with tulsi or mint.
  • Avoid cold or iced foods.
  • Early bedtime and reduced screen exposure.

When to See a Doctor

If the cough lasts more than 3–5 days, worsens, or comes with fever, shortness of breath, or chest pain, seek medical attention. Licorice-based products should be used carefully by those with hypertension.
