description | Cough is one of the most common reasons for seeking medical treatment, and there are many reasons for its occurrence. Conventional expectorants are the most widely used medications in paediatric practice to this day, among which one may identify a large group of drugs with reflexive action that usually contain plant-derived substances. The article reviews present-day knowledge on the mechanisms of action and clinical efficacy of these drugs, provides practical recommendations on the rational use of expectorant therapy for bronchopulmonary diseases in children. It is known that the efficacy of treatment with medicinal plants is caused by their complex multicomponent composition. The use of combination drugs that have a simultaneous effect on various pathogenetic mechanisms of inflammation and coughing is becoming a promising area of mucoactive therapy. Due to relative safety, affordability and efficacy, the modern official herbal medicine is increasingly becoming the subject of informed choice in paediatric practice. |
