Providence has had an irritating cough for a week and yesterday we were getting low on cough syrup. The cough syrup was not real affective anyway and I was dreading the night as it seems to wake her (and us) up. I looked up homemade cough recipes and found the following:
1 TBSP honey warmed (10 seconds microwave) and
a few drops of fresh lemon juice) Mix together and drink.
Also, I put Vicks Vapor rub on her feet and then put socks on.
I also turned on the humidifier.
This worked like a charm.
I gave her the homemade remedy at 6:50pm and she didn't cough until 5:00 am. I gave it to her again this morning and she has only had small episodes.
I love cheap options.
