Bells Baby Cough Syrup is a gentle, non-medicated soothing syrup specifically designed for infants and young children. Unlike adult cough medicines that contain strong suppressants or decongestants, this syrup uses a simple, traditional formula to provide comfort to a child’s irritated throat. It is free from artificial colors and is formulated to be very mild.
This product is primarily indicated for the relief of dry, tickly coughs and sore throats in babies. It is used to:
Soothe Throat Irritation: Provides a protective coating (demulcent) over the throat to reduce the "scratchy" feeling.
Calm Tickly Coughs: Reduces the urge to cough caused by minor throat irritations.
Relieve Post-Viral Irritation: Helps soothe the lingering throat dryness that often follows a common cold.
Comfort During Teething: Sometimes used to soothe the throat when excess saliva from teething causes minor irritation.
Infants (3 to 12 months): 5ml (one teaspoonful) taken 3 to 4 times daily.
Children (1 to 5 years): 10ml (two teaspoonfuls) taken 3 to 4 times daily.
Infants under 3 months: Not recommended unless specifically directed by a pediatrician.
Note: If symptoms do not improve after a few days, consult a healthcare professional.
To help your baby feel better:
Administration: Give the syrup to your baby using a medicine spoon or an oral syringe.
Timing: For best results, give the dose after feeds rather than before, so the syrup stays on the throat for as long as possible.
Consistency: Use the syrup regularly for 2–3 days to maintain the soothing effect on the throat.
Storage: Keep the bottle in a cool place and ensure the cap is tightly closed after use.
Bells Baby Cough Syrup typically utilizes a simplified, safe formula:
Glycerin (Glycerol): A natural demulcent that coats and protects the mucous membranes of the throat.
Sugar Base (Sucrose): Provides the syrupy consistency needed to coat the throat and makes the medicine pleasant for infants to swallow.
Aniseed/Blackcurrant Flavor: Depending on the specific variant, these natural flavors make the syrup more palatable for young children.
Indicated For: Infants from 3 months up to 5 years of age.
Safety Profile: It is non-drowsy and does not contain antihistamines, decongestants, or alcohol, making it one of the safest options for very young children.
Medical Consultation: If the child has a high fever, a persistent "whooping" sound, or difficulty breathing, seek medical attention immediately.
Q: Can I give this to my 4-month-old baby?
A: Yes, Bells Baby Cough is specifically formulated for infants from 3 months onwards. It is much safer for this age group than standard "Paediatric" cough syrups that contain active drugs.
Q: Will it make my baby sleepy?
A: No. It contains no sedatives or antihistamines. However, a baby may sleep better simply because their throat is no longer irritated and they are not coughing as much.
Q: Can I mix it with milk?
A: It is most effective when given directly so it can coat the throat. Mixing it with a full bottle of milk may dilute the soothing effect and prevent the medicine from sticking to the irritated areas.
