Instructions for use and dosage

According to the instructions for use, chest collection No. 2 is used in the form of a decoction. To prepare a decoction, pour 5 g of herbs (equivalent to 1 tablespoon) into an enameled saucepan, pour 1 cup (200 ml) of boiled and cooled water and cover with a lid. Into the pan bigger size you need to pour water and bring it to a boil, after which the stewpan is lowered into the pan so that it touches the water, but does not touch the bottom of the pan. This cooking method is called a water bath.
The broth should be in a water bath for 15 minutes, then the saucepan should be removed and left on the table for 45 minutes. Next, you need to cover a small sieve with gauze and, having filtered the solution through it, how to squeeze out the residue. Strained infusion should be poured into a glass with a volume of 200 ml, add boiled and cooled water at room temperature to the top.

If you bought a breast collection packaged in paper bags, then to prepare the infusion, you need to lower 1 bag into a glass or mug and add 200 ml of boiling water, after which you need to cover the container with a lid or saucer and leave it on the table for 15 minutes for infusion.

Before drinking the decoction, it must be shaken well.

The dosage of the decoction depends on the age of the patient:

Adults and over 14 years old are recommended to drink 1 glass of warm broth up to 3 times a day.
Children from 12 to 14 years old should take 0.5 cup 3 times a day.
Children from 7 to 12 years old - 0.25 cup 3 times a day.
Children from 3 to 7 years old - 2 tablespoons of infusion 3 times a day.

Important! Take a decoction of breast collection should be only after eating.

The duration of the course of treatment is determined by the doctor, it is usually from 2 to 3 weeks.

If the broth is not to your liking, you can add jam or juice to it.

Application features

Despite the high degree of public confidence in funds based on medicinal herbs, there are some nuances that are worth paying attention to.

Side effects

Medicinal herbs are plants, this should be remembered by people who have already had cases of allergic reactions associated with plants.
A negative effect can also have an excess daily dose infusion (, bowel disorder), although careful studies on this case have not been conducted.

The decoction should be taken with caution in conjunction with other drugs, since the interaction with other drugs has not been thoroughly studied.

It is impossible to combine breast collection therapy with drugs that depress cough, since the latter do not make it possible to remove liquefied sputum from the respiratory tract.

Separately, it is necessary to dwell on the possibility of treatment with breast collection No. 2 at. Although there are no herbs in its structure that are forbidden to be used by pregnant women, during this period the body's sensitivity to allergens increases. Therefore, it is better to start treatment in the second trimester with small doses of decoction, carefully observing the reaction of the child. If even small signs appear, the reception should be immediately abandoned. And the doctor should make the decision to be treated in this way.
The effect of the infusion on the ability to drive a car has not been studied, but there are no components in its composition that can slow down the reaction rate.

The drug is not prescribed to children under the age of 3 years due to high risk development of allergic reactions.

Shelf life and storage conditions

Herb packs should be stored dry, protected from moisture and direct sun rays place at a temperature not exceeding 25 °C. It is highly recommended to choose a storage location away from children. Under such conditions, the drug can be stored for up to 2 years.

Important! The prepared broth should not be taken at the end of 2 days from the moment of preparation - it loses its medicinal properties and may sour.

Medical collection you can prepare it yourself, but you must follow the method of drying and collecting. Breastfeeding treatment does not have a pronounced effect, so doctors recommend supplementing it with medications.

Herbal therapy is a long-term method, but its effectiveness is confirmed by centuries of tradition. Despite this, decoctions of medicinal herbs should be taken under the supervision of a doctor and according to his prescription.

When a child is tormented by a cough, parents are faced with a choice: give him a regular medicine to drink, which will give a quick and lasting effect, or give up “chemistry” and use natural. Chest cough collection for children is more useful, as it does not additional load weakened by disease children's body, although it acts more slowly than the pharmaceutical drug. What are the features of breastfeeding, when and how to give it to children?

With a cough that occurs as defensive reaction to cleanse the respiratory tract, drugs that thin and remove sputum (mucolytic) are well suited. natural remedies relieve a coughing fit if for some reason it is not possible to visit a doctor immediately. But they should be used without prescribing with caution: individual allergic reaction on the components.

Breast collection helps to successfully remove mucus from the respiratory organs and gradually improve them: natural herbal ingredients have not only expectorant, but also antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects. Such herbal preparations are different in composition, and in pharmacies they can be found under numbers (the more medicinal herbs in the composition, the higher the number).

Selecting and preparing a drink

Depending on the composition, the collection can be used when various diseases. Here are just a few of them:

SARS;
flu;
chronic, acute, obstructive bronchitis;
laryngitis;
pharyngitis;
tracheitis;
bronchial asthma;
pneumonia.

All these are diseases of the upper and lower respiratory tract, accompanied by the formation of sputum and its difficult separation.

There is an opinion: children under five years old should not be given expectorants. The airways of the child are narrow, which will not allow sputum to fully depart. But, since it is also impossible to delay its discharge (otherwise it will become a focus of infection), in any case, you need to consult a doctor.

When choosing a drug with your doctor, you will be guided by the following factors:

the age of the child;
the nature of the disease;
related diseases.

Chest cough collection for children under one year old is not suitable, since a multicomponent composition can cause allergies. It is recommended to brew any one plant. For this, thyme, licorice root, coltsfoot, chamomile, Ivan tea are suitable. For example, pour 1 teaspoon of thyme into 300 ml of boiling water, let it cool down and give the child 1 teaspoon 4 times a day.

Children from a year are best suited for compositions from minimum quantity ingredients. Older children (from 5 years old) can take charges No. 3 and No. 4, but only if they are not allergic. For example, in breast collection No. 4 - wild rosemary, a highly allergenic plant, therefore, the dosage cannot be exceeded, and if a reaction (itching, redness of the skin, rash, swelling) is detected, immediately stop treatment with this remedy.

Breast collection No. 2 for children has an anti-inflammatory and mucolytic effect, strengthens the immune system. Most often it is used for laryngitis, tracheitis, bronchitis. It contains 30% licorice root and large plantain and 40% coltsfoot leaves. The product should be taken warm, 4 times a day, 100 ml, shaking before use. Store it in a cool place and no more than two days. The course of treatment is two to three weeks, until complete recovery.

If you purchase filter bags with chopped herbs, they are easy to brew by filling one bag with a glass hot water and covering with a saucer for better infusion. Filter bags are handy if you need a decoction to take orally or as a gargle. If you took out a composition of dried herbs, it will need to be strained after brewing.

Instructions for preparing a drink.

Pour a tablespoon of raw materials with 1 cup of non-hot boiled water.
Bring to a boil, keep in a water bath under the lid for 15 minutes.
Cool for 45 minutes at room temperature.
Strain the infusion through cheesecloth in four additions, squeeze out the rest.
Dilute the infusion with boiled water at room temperature, bringing to a volume of 200 ml.

How to take collection

For therapy to be safe and effective, some simple rules must be followed.

Follow the directions for preparing the decoction on the packaging. If the doctor advises other methods of brewing and dosage based on the characteristics of your child, listen to him.
You need to drink the remedy before meals, in small sips, slowly. But if the child is very small, and besides, he has problems with gastrointestinal tract, it is best to drink an infusion of reduced concentration and dose, and certainly after a meal.
Make a schedule. Approximately the same time should elapse between doses.
Healing drinks can be alternated(of course, after consulting a doctor), so that the child's body receives more useful substances.

Chest collection for cough, having expectorant effect, should not be taken simultaneously with antitussive pharmaceuticals - they block the cough center of the brain and / or reduce sputum production. The discharge of sputum will be difficult, it will begin to stagnate, and the causative agent of the infection can spread throughout the respiratory system because of this.

Table - Age norms taking breastfeeding

Children over three years old can add a little honey, jam or lemon juice to the drink.

Breast collection is often used for inhalation. Ready infused broth should be poured into the tank of the inhaler (nebulizer) and let the child breathe for 7-8 minutes. Inhalations do not help only with a dry cough.

How to deal with dry cough

Clear the airways and remove toxic substances allows moist cough. Therefore, doctors call it "productive." You help the child by giving him mucolytics. But a dry cough is “unproductive”. It will not allow the body to cleanse itself, but only increases spasms in the bronchi and causes irritation of the larynx. Dry cough chest preparations containing chamomile, thyme, eucalyptus, sage will help ease attacks, reduce inflammation and irritation in the airways, and stimulate sputum discharge. In addition, they have a disinfectant effect. You can drink them, and even gargle with them.

Sage is great for healing. He has useful vitamins and acids, it also has an expectorant effect. Here's how to make it (the recipes are suitable for children aged 2+).

Pour 1 tablespoon of dry sage with boiling water (200 ml) and boil for 4-5 minutes.
Insist for 10-15 minutes.
Give your child a warm drink at bedtime daily until the cough is gone.

Cough sage for children can also be prepared with milk.

Pour 1 tablespoon (or 1 filter bag) of sage with 1 cup of milk, boil.
Let the milk cool to room temperature, then boil again.
Strain the milk through cheesecloth in four additions so that there are no grass particles left in it.
Put a small piece into the milk butter, cover the glass with a saucer, let it brew.
Warm up before use. You can add a little honey or sugar to the milk (starting from 3 years).
Give your child a drink before bed, then wrap up warmly.

Pharmacies sell sage lozenges that you can use any time your baby has a coughing fit. Some types of lozenges are recommended from the age of three, but they are usually used from the age of six.
During treatment, the child needs constant attention and advice from a pediatrician. In addition, for effective treatment it is always necessary to select herbs according to the characteristics of a particular patient. Getting rid of the main symptoms is not enough: only the doctor will determine whether your baby has fully recovered.

In addition to such remedies as breast collection for children, there are many others that the doctor can also advise: compresses, massage chest, rinsing, warming, inhalation. Complex treatment will help you in short time cope with the disease. Other important recommendations: make sure that the child does not get cold and tired, give him vitamins and healthy food, walk with him on fresh air- all this strengthens the immune system. And diseases, as you know, are always easier to prevent than to treat.
