Usage in children

How much and how long can Taleesadi Churna be given to a child of age 5 years who is suffering from cough all the time. Cough will be sometimes dry, sometimes wet and sometimes of mixed type. Please advise how taleesadi churna can be given?

Usual dosage of this medicine in adults is 1-3 grams along with honey, once or two times a day, before or after food.

So, in a child of 5 years age, definitely the dose will be lower. It can be between 1 – 2 grams per day, along with a teaspoon of honey. Because Talisadi Churna contains some amount of sugar, children will like the taste, especially when it is mixed with honey.  Based on the doctor’s advice, it can be given for a period of 2 – 3 weeks. 

But it is always advised to consult an Ayurvedic physician before taking any Ayurvedic medicine. Dosage and duration can only be decided perfectly by a qualified Ayurvedic physician.

Another interesting fact is, the same herbal powder is mixed with sugar solution and granules or tablets are prepared from it. It is available in the name of Taleesapathradi Vatakam. Here, Vatakam means tablet.
