Husten- Und Bronchial Tee (Fennel, Bitter, Thyme, Plantaginis Lanceolatae Folium, Liquorice Root)

Husten- Und Bronchial Tee is traditionally used to alleviate mild respiratory symptoms associated with cough and throat irritation. It may be selected as a supportive measure during seasonal colds or mild bronchial irritation.

• Helps soothe a dry or tickling cough.
• May reduce mild throat irritation caused by coughing.
• Supports expectoration of thin mucus in bronchial irritation.
• Provides a comforting warm beverage during cold weather.
• Can be used alongside non‑prescription cold remedies for additional comfort.
• Suitable for adults and older children who can safely drink herbal tea.

• The herbal constituents act on the respiratory mucosa through several mechanisms: fennel and thyme contain volatile oils that exhibit mild antitussive and expectorant activity, while licorice root provides demulcent effects that coat the mucous membranes. Plantain leaf contributes anti‑inflammatory flavonoids, and bitter herbs stimulate salivation and mild gastrointestinal reflexes that can indirectly promote mucus clearance. Together, these actions help reduce cough sensitivity and facilitate the movement of secretions.

Adverse reactions to Husten- Und Bronchial Tee are generally uncommon, but they can occur, especially in sensitive individuals.

Herbal components can interact with certain medications or conditions. Consider these guidelines:

Avoid

• Concurrent use with antihypertensive drugs if consuming large quantities of licorice root.
• Combining with other strong antitussive agents, which may increase sedation.
• Use with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) due to potential hypertensive reactions.

Use with caution

• Diabetes medications, because plantain leaf may influence blood glucose.
• Diuretics, as licorice can cause fluid retention.
• Herbal supplements containing similar botanicals to avoid excessive dosing.
