Pertussin
Pertussin (creeping thyme herb extract + potassium bromide) is a herbal remedy used to relieve cough in inflammatory diseases of the respiratory tract. The mechanism of antitussive action can be based on two physiological patterns: facilitating the evacuation of sputum from the respiratory tract and/or a direct effect on the cough center in the brain. Pertussin is a drug of combined action that improves the evacuation of mucus from the respiratory tract and suppresses the excitability of the cough center. The drug appeared on the Russian pharmaceutical market in the late 60s of the last century. In addition to the herbal component (creeping thyme herb extract), it also contains the chemical substance potassium bromide, whose function is to gently suppress the excitability of the cough center. Potassium bromide has long been used as a sedative and anticonvulsant. The dosage form of the drug is syrup (Pertussin should not be confused with Pectusin tablets - these are different medicines). Pertussin is effective for tracheitis, bronchitis, and whooping cough. Tracheitis and bronchitis usually occur with a productive cough, so in this case the expectorant effect of the drug would be appropriate. Whooping cough is characterized by attacks of spasmodic cough, in which the property of potassium bromide to suppress the cough reflex is in demand, thereby minimizing the risk of injury to the mucous membranes. For dry cough, the drug is not used. For productive cough, Pertussin is recommended to be used as an adjuvant as part of complex pharmacotherapy.
It is undesirable to base the entire treatment process on Pertussin alone (i.e., monotherapy). In this regard, depending on the clinical situation, the use of antibiotics, antiviral agents, immunostimulants, painkillers, vitamin-mineral complexes, etc. is indicated. Pertussin is contraindicated in case of hypersensitivity to one of the active or auxiliary components of the drug, liver failure, epilepsy, head injury, impaired absorption of sugars, pregnancy, and during breastfeeding. In pediatric practice, the drug is used in patients after they reach the age of three. Pertussin contains ethyl alcohol as one of the excipients, so the drug should be used in children (as well as in persons whose activities require increased attention and reaction speed) with extreme caution. The same applies to people suffering from diabetes, because... Pertussin contains sugar. It is recommended to take the drug after meals, because... it suppresses appetite. The duration of the medication course is from 10 to 14 days. A repeated course is allowed only with the agreement of a doctor. Pertussin is not recommended to be combined with centrally acting antitussive drugs, because the latter may complicate the evacuation of sputum from the upper respiratory tract.
