Coughout Alcohol-Free Drops
Coughout Alcohol-Free Glycerite, Liquorice Root, Marshmallow Root, Mullein Flower, Thyme LeafCoughout Alcohol-Free Drops - Marshmallow Root, Mullein Flower, Thyme and Licorice Herbal Blend
This is an alcohol-free liquid extract (glycerite) of four herbs extracted together in equal parts. Coughout is the name of the blend; it is a traditional herbal product, not a capsule. Please read the safety information below before use.
- Marshmallow root - Althaea officinalis root (Malvaceae; naturally rich in mucilage)
- Mullein flower - Verbascum thapsus flower (Scrophulariaceae)
- Thyme leaf - Thymus vulgaris leaf (Lamiaceae)
- Licorice root - Glycyrrhiza glabra root (Fabaceae; naturally contains glycyrrhizin)
- Extract type: Alcohol-free glycerite - liquid drops. Other ingredients: vegetable glycerin, purified water
- Origin: Responsibly sourced botanicals. Gluten free. Made in the USA.
What is in the blend
- Marshmallow root - the root of a tall pink-flowered mallow of wet meadows, rich in mucilage that turns slippery in water; the original confectionery marshmallow was made from it.
- Mullein flower - the small yellow flowers of the great mullein, a woolly roadside plant of Europe and North America.
- Thyme leaf - the familiar Mediterranean kitchen herb, a small shrub of the mint family.
- Licorice root - the sweet root of European licorice; its sweetness comes from glycyrrhizin, which is also the reason for the cautions below.
Why the alcohol-free drops
The four dried herbs are extracted together in vegetable glycerin and purified water, so there is no ethanol in the bottle - the version to choose if you avoid alcohol. Glycerin gives the drops a mild, naturally sweet taste that pairs well with the licorice and the mucilage of marshmallow root.
What is a glycerite?
A glycerite is a liquid herbal extract made with vegetable glycerin instead of alcohol. Glycerin is a clear, naturally sweet liquid from plant oils; it extracts and preserves the water-soluble parts of the herbs - a good match for mucilage-rich roots like marshmallow. Because glycerin is a weaker preservative than alcohol, keep the bottle refrigerated after opening. The glycerin and water percentages are printed on the label.
How to use
Shake well before use. Put the number of drops shown on the label into a little water, juice or tea and drink it, up to the frequency shown on the label. Because marshmallow root can slow the absorption of medicines, take any medication one to two hours before or after these drops. Refrigerate after opening and use within the period printed on the label.
Drops or tincture?
If you prefer the classic alcohol-based extract with the longest shelf life at room temperature, the same four-herb blend is available as Coughout Tincture - the alcohol-based version. The herbs and proportions are identical; only the extraction liquid differs.
Important safety information - please read before use
This blend contains four herbs. Please note the following before use.
- Blood pressure and potassium (licorice): licorice root naturally contains glycyrrhizin, which with regular or prolonged use can raise blood pressure, lower potassium and cause fluid retention. Do not use if you have high blood pressure, heart disease, kidney disease or low potassium. Use caution with diuretics, digoxin, corticosteroids or blood-pressure medication, and do not use it continuously.
- Medication timing (marshmallow): marshmallow root can slow the absorption of other medicines. Take medication one to two hours apart from this blend.
- Blood thinners (thyme): thyme may add to the effect of warfarin and other anticoagulants - consult your practitioner.
- Blood sugar (marshmallow): may lower blood sugar - monitor if you take diabetes medication.
- Pregnancy / nursing: do not use.
- Allergies: thyme is a mint-family (Lamiaceae) plant and mullein is a figwort-family (Scrophulariaceae) plant - avoid if you are sensitive to either family.
- Keep to the label serving. If you have a medical condition or take medication, consult a qualified healthcare practitioner before use. Do not give it to children without medical advice. Do not use it to self-treat any medical condition - see a qualified doctor instead. Keep out of reach of children.

As Described
This herb has been a huge help for me!
This stuff keeps me from getting lichens sclerosis, which is a female gentalia skin issue. It will drive you crazy from itching. I swallow 1 full dropper every day. I no longer use any steroid creams which makes me very happy.
