Patanjali Kadha is a powerful herbal formulation designed to relieve symptoms of cough and cold, leveraging the antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and soothing properties of ingredients like tulsi (holy basil), mulethi (licorice), ginger, and black pepper. These herbs help to clear the respiratory tract, reduce inflammation, and strengthen the immune system. It can provide relief from throat irritation and coughing, often offering soothing effects relatively quickly, especially when consumed warm, as the warmth helps to ease the throat and promote better absorption of the herbs. For the best results, it is typically advised to take the kadha 2–3 times a day, especially when symptoms first appear. While Patanjali Kadha can be used by children, the dosage should be adjusted according to age—typically, a lower dose for younger children (around 1–2 teaspoons) and a higher dose for older children or adults (1–2 tablespoons). It is important to consult with a healthcare provider for precise dosages for children. Regular use may yield better results, but many people notice relief within a short time when used consistently.
