Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture, 300ml

Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture 300ml is a mentholated oral expectorant medicine containing levomenthol, squill tincture and liquorice liquid extract for the symptomatic relief of productive chesty coughs and sore throats. Rather than suppressing a useful productive cough, the formulation helps support mucus clearance while soothing irritation in the throat.

Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture 300ml, officially authorised as Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture Mentholated, is a non-drowsy expectorant medicine for symptomatic relief of productive chesty coughs and sore throats. Each 5ml contains levomenthol 4mg, squill tincture 0.6ml and liquorice liquid extract 0.125ml. Squill provides reflex expectorant action, liquorice has soothing demulcent and mild expectorant properties, and menthol provides a cooling sensation that can help relieve congestion associated with chesty coughs. Adults and those over 12 years take 5–10ml every four hours when required, while children aged 5–12 years take 5ml every four hours when needed. Available through Dock Pharmacy, a legitimate, established GPhC-registered UK pharmacy.

Benefits

Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture helps relieve productive chesty coughs by supporting the removal of mucus and phlegm rather than suppressing the cough reflex. Squill contributes expectorant action, liquorice helps soothe throat irritation and provides mild expectorant activity, while levomenthol provides a cooling sensation that can make congestion feel more comfortable.

The formulation is non-drowsy when taken as directed, making it suitable for daytime use. The 300ml bottle also provides a larger pack option for customers who prefer more product than the standard 150ml size. Covonia

How to Take

For adults, older people and children over 12 years, take one or two 5ml spoonfuls, equivalent to 5–10ml per dose. For children aged 5–12 years, give one 5ml spoonful. The appropriate dose may be taken every four hours if required. Medicines.org.uk
Do not exceed the recommended amount. If the cough persists or becomes worse, speak to a doctor or pharmacist rather than continuing prolonged self-treatment. Medicines.org.uk

Side Effects

Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture is generally used without serious problems, but hypersensitivity and gastrointestinal reactions have been reported. Allergic-type reactions may include widespread hives, flushing or contact dermatitis. Medicines.org.uk
Liquorice may also cause sodium and water retention and reduced potassium levels in some people. If you develop significant swelling, a persistent rash, unexpected weakness or another concerning reaction, stop taking the medicine and seek medical advice. Taking excessive quantities may cause more serious gastrointestinal, neurological or cardiac effects, so the recommended dose should not be exceeded. Medicines.org.uk

Cautions

Do not take Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture if you are allergic to any of its ingredients or if you have a cardiac disorder, as heart conditions are specifically listed as a contraindication in the current SmPC. Medicines.org.uk
Each 5ml contains 1.3g glucose and 1.3g sucrose, which should be considered by people with diabetes. People with hereditary fructose intolerance, glucose-galactose malabsorption or sucrase-isomaltase insufficiency should not take this medicine. Each 5ml also contains 282mg ethanol; the authorised information states that this small quantity is not expected to cause noticeable effects. Medicines.org.uk
Squill may interact with thiazide or loop diuretics, as these medicines can lower potassium or magnesium and potentially increase the risk of cardiac rhythm disturbances. Carbenoxolone may also increase sodium and water retention and reduce potassium levels. If you use regular heart medicines, diuretics or medicines affecting potassium, speak to a pharmacist or doctor before taking Covonia. Medicines.org.uk
During pregnancy, the authorised information advises caution and recommends seeking medical advice if necessary. Store the bottle below 25°C and keep it out of the sight and reach of children. Medicines.org.uk

Why Choose Dock Pharmacy UK?

Choosing a cough medicine online should involve more than simply finding the largest bottle or lowest price. Dock Pharmacy is a legitimate, established GPhC-registered UK pharmacy, registered under GPhC reference 1091481. Its latest published inspection outcome is Standards met, and the regulator confirms that it supplies over-the-counter medicines through its website. Pharmacy Inspections
Buying through a registered pharmacy gives customers access to professional pharmacist support, which is particularly useful with Covonia Chesty Cough Mixture because it contains several active components, sugar and alcohol and is unsuitable for some people with cardiac conditions. A pharmacist can also check whether your regular medicines, including certain diuretics, could interact with the formulation.
Professional advice is also valuable when a cough persists, worsens or is accompanied by breathing difficulty, chest pain, high fever or other concerning symptoms. In these circumstances, continued self-treatment may not be appropriate and further medical assessment may be needed.
