No, Care Mucus Cough Sugar-Free Syrup targets mucus coughs, otherwise known as chesty coughs and works by coating your throat in a soothing film to relieve irritation. A dry cough, also known as non-productive cough, doesn't generate any phlegm. Dry coughs are typically caused by dust particles, infection or foreign bodies, making your upper airways feel inflamed. If you're looking for dry cough medicines that address non-productive coughs, talk to a pharmacist or contact your doctor.

Care Mucus Cough Sugar-Free Syrup is an oral formula that provides symptomatic relief from chesty (productive) cough symptoms. It's formulated with citric acid monohydrate together with glycerol, sodium benzoate, maltitol liquid, and aniseed. The colourless liquid lines your throat, combating pain and itchiness due to persistent coughing.

The active ingredient in this medication is citric acid monohydrate. The other ingredients include glycerol, maltitol liquid (includes sorbitol), sodium benzoate, aniseed flavour (contains propylene glycol E1520), and purified water.
