Theratuss is an innovative product developed by GSK, designed to relieve symptoms of cough and upper respiratory tract irritation through a natural, well-tolerated formula tailored to the needs of different age groups. Its complex formulas, based on plant extracts and components with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential, are developed to support both symptomatic relief and the body's natural defence mechanisms.
Forms of release
Theratuss is available in two distinct pharmaceutical forms, tailored to patient preferences and needs:
- Theratuss ProNatural syrup – is a medical device intended to relieve dry and productive coughs.
- Theratuss Natural tablets (16 tablets) – provide a practical solution for combating throat discomfort, hoarseness and pharyngeal inflammation.
Indications for use
Theratuss syrup is recommended for the relief of both dry and productive coughs, thanks to its soothing and emollient action on the irritated mucous membranes of the respiratory tract. Its action is based on a patented blend of polysaccharide and polyphenolic fractions from plantain, marshmallow and elderberry.
Theratuss lozenges are recommended for soothing sore throats and provide effective support for strengthening local and systemic immunity. Thanks to its rich content of medicinal plants with anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties, the product helps to ease breathing in cases of mild congestion.
Dosage
For Theratuss syrup, the dosage regimen varies according to age.
- Children aged 1 to 6 years are recommended to take 5 ml (one measuring spoon) twice a day.
- Children over 6 years of age can take 10 ml (two measuring spoons), administered twice a day.
- For adults, the usual dose is 10 ml two to three times a day.
For Theratuss tablets, the recommended dose for adults and children aged 6 years and older is one tablet every 3–4 hours. For children aged 5 to 6 years, the maximum number of tablets is three per day.
