Description:
The herbs of this combination have been used with success in traditional medicine to treat coughs, colds and flu. Sage has an antiseptic effect for sore throat. Eucalyptus combines both the attributes of an antibiotic and antiseptic to correct troubles of the lungs. This is a specific remedy for the "dry spot" behind the nose and in the throat which often accompanies a miserable cold and cough. Bistort, due to its cleansing properties, allows us to expel the poisons, thus reducing the time of suffering. Horehound is an old pioneer remedy used as an expectorant to relieve pain and to expel infected mucus. Wild Cherry Bark is very esteemed by the Indians Chippewa; it has been used to break up congestion of the respiratory system.

Dosage:
20 to 40 drops every three to four hours. Apply externally to the throat, chest and back, as needed. It can also be used as a gargle, 40 drops in 30 ml of water.
