In adults, it is recommended to take 2 tablespoons 3 times a day of Helicidin syrup.
In children, the dose of Helicidin depends on weight: 2ml/kg/24h divided into 3 doses, i.e.:
- Between 12 and 15 kg, 2 teaspoons 3 times a day
- Between 15 and 25 kg, 1 tablespoon 3 times a day
- Between 25 and 50 kg, 3 to 5 tablespoons per day
Do not exceed 5 to 6 days of treatment in case of dry cough without medical advice. Do not combine Helicidin with another antitussive treatment.
If the cough becomes oily or you notice the onset or persistence of fever, you should consult your doctor quickly and stop treatment with Helicidin.
