ALPHA – COFF
Introduction
A cough is a sudden noisy expulsion of air from the lungs as part of a defence mechanism to remove unwanted materials. It may occur as a result of a reflex action caused by irritation of any part of the respiratory mucous membranes. The cough may be dry, productive (loose) or spasmodic in nature.
A dry cough occurs when the mucous membranes of throat, larynx, or bronchi are affected by viral respiratory infections or irritation by tobacco smoke or pollution. In cases of bacterial complications, chronic diseases of the respiratory tract or after prolonged immobilisation, the cough may develop a productive character. The sputum is of different quantity, consistency, odour and colour. In some patients, a cough may be entirely of nervous origin. The spasmodic cough is a typical symptom of croup and whooping cough.
The lungs are exposed to approximately 7000 litres of air per day with all its suspended particulate and microbial contents. Most of the large particles are removed by nasal filters, mucociliary mechanisms and antimicrobial action of the lung fluids (macrophages). In spite of this, a cough is a very common symptom associated with respiratory infections.
All ingredients of Alpha – Coff are proven homoeopathic remedies for different types of coughs. This combination makes the product effective in the treatment of dry, spasmodic and productive coughs.
Indications: Dry cough stage, as well as expectoration stage of cold and flue like symptoms; irritative and spasmodic cough.
