health caution for syrup usage

*health related Caution :* you may have cough and cold these days and *you may happen to use some cough syrups*

Then be aware of this : The other pathy Cough syrup preparations can cause *problems to people with other health problems;* such as asthma, heart failure, high blood pressure, glaucoma ( डोळ्याचा अंत:दाब विकार ) or an enlarged prostate. So in a way syrups are *contra indicatory* to these patients.( वरील आजार असणाऱ्या रुग्णांना देता येत नाहीत )

Cough preparations may also interact with other medicines, such as sedatives ( झोपेची औषधे ) and certain antidepressants. ( निराशा व्याधींची औषधे ) चालू असतील तर सायरप देता येत नाहीत.

*So please Read the package carefully or ask your pharmacist or doctor to help you choose one.*

Use cough preparations with caution if you are *older than 60 or if you have chronic respiratory problems.'':* 

source authentic modern medicine journal.

Instead; use of warm water and honey is quite recommended for any type of cough. 

I generally recomend *ayurvedic adulasa syrup or vasakasav to our patients.*

Thanks.
