Product introduction
Asthakind Pro Suspension is a sugar-free cough suspension built around a single active ingredient, levocloperastine, which is used specifically to calm dry cough. It is often chosen when a straightforward, single-salt option is preferred over multi-ingredient cough formulas. The mango-flavoured, sugar-free base makes it easier to take regularly without adding sugar to the diet. It is available only with a doctor's prescription.
Storage: Store below 30°C, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and keep out of reach of children.
