what is present in cough syrup - #25291

Julian

I am really curious about something that's been bothering me for a while. Just last month, I had this nasty cold that turned into a really bad cough, right? I went to the pharmacy and picked up this cough syrup, but I didn't really know what is present in cough syrup that makes it work so fast. Like, what’s the science behind it? I mean, I know there’s all sorts of stuff—maybe some kind of herbs? But what do they actually do? I tried reading the label, and it was all these chemical names I couldn't even pronounce! It got me worried. Even now, after finishing the bottle, I still have like this persistent cough that won’t go away, ugh! And even when a doc recommends something, I wonder, what is present in cough syrup that could be causing side effects or even making things worse? I mean, is there something natural I could try instead? Would love to hear what you all think, please help!
