St. Francis Elderberry Cough Syrup for Kids (120ml)

St. Francis Elderberry Cough Syrup for Kids is a certified organic, 7-herb liquid formula designed to relieve coughs and mucous congestion of the upper respiratory passages in children 2 years and older. Combines elderberry concentrate, wild cherry bark, marshmallow root, echinacea, catnip, anise, and thyme, with a touch of honey for a taste kids will accept. Certified organic. Contains honey — not suitable for children under 1 year of age. 120ml bottle. Take a few hours before or after other medications or natural health products. Formulated by St. Francis Herb Farm, a trusted Canadian natural health brand.

Each ingredient plays a distinct role: elderberry (Sambucus nigra) provides antioxidant-rich berry concentrate traditionally used to support immune function during colds and flu; wild cherry bark (Prunus serotina) is a traditional herbal remedy for cough; marshmallow root (Althaea officinalis) soothes and coats irritated mucous membranes; echinacea (Echinacea purpurea) supports immune function; catnip and anise help ease respiratory discomfort; and thyme leaf is traditionally used to relieve coughs. Lemon peel and cinnamon bark essential oils contribute to the flavour profile. Certified organic alcohol and vegetable glycerine serve as the extraction base.
