What is Ivy Thyme complex used for?
Ivy-Thyme Complex is a combination of herbs formulated to help soothe coughs which are associated with catarrh and other bronchial symptoms. Common Ivy is an example of an herb which exerts an expectorant action on the respiratory tract. It does this by a reflex-like action on the stomach due to its saponin constituents. Expectorants encourage the 'loosening' and elimination of mucus from the respiratory tract. These substances are beneficial in catarrhal conditions and chronic inflammatory bronchial disease. Ivy also has antispasmodic properties, helping to prevent and relieve coughing spasms. The primary active components of Thyme are the volatile oils, especially thymol. These act locally on the lungs as they are eliminated from the body by the respiratory tract, disinfecting the airways, relaxing bronchial spasm and exerting a mucolytic action (decreases the viscosity of mucus). These actions are of benefit in bronchitis, hacking coughs and catarrh.
