Rapitus Junior Paediatric Syrup

Rapitus Junior Paediatric Syrup is a paediatric cough suppressant specially formulated for children to relieve dry, irritating, and persistent cough. It works by calming the brain’s cough center, reducing unnecessary coughing while providing soothing relief for throat irritation caused by infections, allergies, or exposure to irritants. The syrup helps children sleep better at night and remain comfortable during the day without frequent coughing spells. It is often prescribed for allergic cough, cough due to pollution, smoker’s exposure, throat dryness, and non-productive cough. Its palatable flavor ensures good acceptance by children, making it easier for parents to administer. Although effective in symptom control, it does not cure the root cause of cough and should always be used under paediatric supervision for safe and effective relief.
