Selection by indication
French medicines for coughs
French cough remedies: mucolytics that thin mucus, herbal syrups and a dry-cough remedy. The selection contains no substances controlled in Russia. In France mucolytics are contraindicated in children under 2; see a doctor if a cough lasts more than three weeks or comes with fever or breathlessness.

Questions and answers
Can I choose a French medicine for coughs without a doctor?
No. The selection shows which medicines are registered in France, but a doctor decides on the prescription, dose and any substitution. A manager helps with reference information and ways to obtain a medicine, not with choosing a treatment.
How do I find out the price guide and terms?
The medicine page and the catalog show a guide based on BDPM data, excluding delivery. It is not an offer to sell: a manager confirms current details and terms in a free consultation, usually within 2 hours during working hours.
What if the medicine I need is not in the selection?
Search the catalog by its Russian or French name or by active ingredient. If you cannot find it, write to a manager, who will check whether the medicine or an equivalent exists in France.
