What is actually cough?

For the respiratory tract of substances (about

pollutants) to be free, they irritate or narrow, when
coughing explo- sion-like air expelled. Cough is
therefore a type of protection and cleaning reflex,
the various acute and chronic respiratory diseases
accompanied the way. The following symptoms are
typical:

sticking, restriction of inflammatory irritation to the

tough mucus in the respiratory tract Respiratory
reaction

cause for the cough is often a viral infection, so a cold

or acute bronchitis. Cold cough is usually divided
into the following sections:

Acute bronchitis Cough nonproductive cough 2-3 days

of dry, un- productive cough without eject
up to 14 days productive cough and mucus

up to 8 weeks of dry cough

What cough do i have?

Basically you have to distinguish between productive

and unproduktivem cough:

Productive Cough:

Increased slime formation and cough with litter are

typical features. The abgehus- tete slime away
pathogens from the body - the cough should
therefore not be suppressed.

Moist, slimy, audible slime EJECT

unproductive cough:

the fauces is irritated, the slightest reason can be a

cough impact. Since the cleaning function is
missing, the cough no use - robs a but would like to
go to sleep.

Dry, BELLEND, OFTEN BATS MRS bend

Cough seizures that is a clarification by the doctor
recommended!

"right" for productive cough cough

productive cough is of mucus. The litter is useful and

important - as it can promote, show the following
tips:

not too early cough ideally only when the mucus in

the upper neck area is felt.

Max. Max. From a breathing out only 2-3x cough

max length of cough attacks not only to strict, but

also keep the mucus in the respiratory tract.

Against slightly closed lips cough against a resistance

as the lips, cough, facilitates the abhusten of slime
- hard, loud coughing but not: much more irritating
to the respiratory tract due to the strong pressure
sealed.

Facilitating breathing exercises e.g. Driver seat

"right" for unproduktivem cough cough

when the cough is dry and bellend sounds, there is

probably an unproductive cough. The following tips
will help the often agonizing cough suppression:

saliva swallow the production of saliva can by throat

pastilles (e.g. with Icelandic moss) and a sufficient
quantity of liquid should be encouraged.

Max.

Max. a few breaths Superficial breathing too deep

breathing is not conducive:

it strengthens the attraction to cough.

Air short stop reduces the tickling throat, because if

no air flows through the respiratory tract, these
are also not irritated.

Recommendation: saliva swallow, air stop, superficial

continue breathing - then the whole again.

What makes Prospan

 With the 4-fold power of ivy for the whole family

Liquefies mucus

Helps you breathe more freely

Relieves coughing

Alleviates inflammation

the right choice against coughs?

Prospan cough preparations stand out from others as they are produced using an
individual and unique manufacturing process. This exclusive process results in the
unique Prospan Special-Ivy-Extract EA 575, whose individual characteristics can be
compared to a fingerprint.

Thanks to its pneumoactive

formula, the special extract is able to effectively treat complex cough-related processes.
Prospan liquefies the sticky mucus trapped in the bronchi, allowing it to be coughed up more easily
and thus removed from the body. As a result of the relaxant effect on the bronchi, constricted
airways are widened, enabling you to breathe more freely again.
 Prospan cough preparations are effective and especially well tolerated.
Compared to various other cough preparations, Prospan is very versatile. It can be used not only
for acute forms of cough, but also for chronic, inflammatory bronchial conditions. An additional
advantage of Prospanis its broad product range. Youll find a solution to match every age segment.
The appropriate form of administration can be found here.

With the 4-fold power of ivy against coughing due to

bronchitis
The common cold / Acute bronchitis

In response to a viral attack, the mucous membranes of the respiratory tract become
inflamed. As the mucous membranes of the upper and lower respiratory tract are very
similar in terms of their construction, a common cold i.e. an infection of the upper
respiratory tract can easily migrate to the bronchi.
In a bronchial inflammation, messenger substances are released which act as chemical stimuli. This
is also often accompanied by increased mucus formation, which is an automatic stimulus. The cilia
no longer manage to expel the mucus. Finely tuned sensors (receptors) in our mucous membranes
detect these different stimuli and send signals to the cough centre in our brain, triggering the reflex:
we start coughing. This can eventually result in a spasm of the bronchial musculature.
By constricting the muscles in combination with coughing, the body tries to expel the mucus. It
becomes difficult to breathe. And coughing is not the only problem: the condition is also often
accompanied by difficulties with swallowing, headaches, and a runny nose.

Coughing due to a common cold in brief

1st phase:
23 days of dry, unproductive coughing due to irritation and/or inflammation of the mucous
membranes
2nd phase:
Up to 14 days of mucus-forming, productive coughing
3rd phase:
In the healing phase, which can take as long as 8 weeks, the patient continues to suffer from a
mostly dry cough

Chronic bronchitis / Chronic obstructive bronchitis

continuous coughing with consequences

Chronic bronchitis is a long-term disease of the respiratory tract. Coughing does not stop
when the patient recovers from a common cold or after the usual two-week period.
Typical symptoms include frequent coughing with whitish, sticky mucus, which is
expelled in large quantities, especially in the morning.
The primary cause of chronic bronchitis is smoking. But bacteria (Haemophilus influenzae and
Streptococcus pneumoniae) can also cause chronic bronchitis. The same holds true if the airways
are exposed to dust, gases and vapours for extended periods of time, as is the case for some
workers. With chronic bronchitis, the mucous membranes of the bronchi thicken.

More secretion i.e. mucus is formed. In producing this mucus, the body is trying to counteract the
contamination (by cigarette smoke, bacteria or dust) and to rid itself of the intruders. At the same
time, however, continuous irritation disables the cilia (microscopic hairs) which are supposed to
carry away the mucus. Over the long term, they are completely destroyed.
 The bronchi are now permanently inflamed. This has devastating consequences: the wall of the
bronchi becomes thin and unstable. If strong exhalation occurs, the bronchi collapse. This renders
breathing difficult. The case of chronic bronchitis has now become a case of chronic obstructive
bronchitis (COPD).

Chronic bronchitis in brief

Caused by continuous irritation of the bronchi (e.g. smoke)

Bronchi suffer continuous inflammation and damage
Cilia are destroyed
Slimy, sticky, glassy sputum
Must definitely be treated. Over the long term, bronchitis can cause the airways to narrow
permanently

Asthma / Bronchial asthma when theres not enough

air
In people who suffer from asthma, the bronchi overreact to stimuli which are inhaled
with the air. In the case of allergic asthma, those stimuli are allergens such as animal
hair, dust mites or pollen. Asthma has many causes:
Genetic predisposition
Allergies
Psychosomatic disorders
During an asthma attack, the airways narrow. The person affected experiences a very sudden
difficulty in breathing and a fear of suffocation. The attack can be accompanied by noisy breathing,
coughing, expectoration and feelings of constriction and pressure in the chest cavity. People with
asthmatic diseases should always be under medical care.

When theres not enough air

 In this case, it is important that a doctor initiates an asthma-specific therapy early on and that the
person affected follows that therapy. When children are involved, the disease and the therapy often
cause stress for parents and children and as a result, they might not follow the therapy adequately.
The reasons for this include fear of the complicated therapy, for example, or the difficulty of taking
medications but also the unpleasant taste.

Lung inflammation danger! (Pneumonia)

Every year over 100,000 people catch pneumonia in Germany: that makes it the
countrys most common infectious disease. The severity and duration depend on the
pathogen and the patients constitution. In general, however, it can be said that
bacteria-related pneumonias strike the hardest. Inflammation of the lungs should be
treated by a doctor.
When the immune system is weakened, the danger of catching pneumonia is high. In most cases
(70%), it is triggered by bacteria, or less often by viruses or fungi. These pathogens penetrate the
airways and cause inflammation there.
As the bodys own defences are weakened, the inflammation spreads to the alveoli. That means that
respiration is impaired. Less oxygen makes it into the body, and not enough CO 2 can be exhaled.
This creates a life-threatening situation!
Pneumonia is usually accompanied by fever, shivering and chest pains. The coughing is heavy and
expels sputum: first reddish brown, later yellowish green.

Pneumonia in brief

Usually caused by bacteria

Can develop from bronchitis
Inflammation of the mucous membranes spreads to the alveoli
Accompanied by high fever
Cough therapy appears ineffective

Whooping cough not only a childrens disease

(pertussis)
Whooping cough is a bacterial infectious disease which is highly contagious and
therefore must be reported. It is caused by the Bordetella pertussis bacteria.
 These are transmitted by droplet infection and multiply in the respiratory tract. There they release a
poison which triggers the coughing and causes the other symptoms of the disease. The incubation
period, i.e. the amount of time between infection and the appearance of the first symptoms, can
take 7 to 20 days!

Whooping cough in brief

Highly contagious infectious disease

Occurs in 3 phases
Staccato-like coughing fits which can lead to vomiting
Sticky, glassy sputum

Croup (laryngitis subglottica)

Croup is an inflammation of the larynx that is caused by a viral infection (rhinoviruses,

adenoviruses or respiratory syncytial viruses). In most cases, croup is accompanied by a
feverish cold.
The disease occurs frequently in the winter and primarily affects children between the age of nine
months and five years because their larynx is still very narrow. The mucous membrane in the area
of the larynx and the vocal chords is inflamed. The inflammation swells the mucous membrane,
causing the airways to narrow. The body reacts with a very dry, barking cough, which usually occurs
at night and very suddenly. This cough is usually accompanied by abnormal whistling sounds
(stridor) while inhaling.

Croup cause for concern?

In most cases the illness causes no harm, but the sensation of difficult breathing can be very
frightening for a child. Since a dangerous epiglottis inflammation can also cause these symptoms, a
doctors visit is also absolutely necessary here.

Ivy as a phytoactive ingredient

For centuries now, people have been relying on the healing power of ivy to treat
inflammatory bronchial conditions. Today, in modern phytomedicine, ivy is used as a
medication for the effective treatment of coughing. The full extent of its capabilities is
the subject of continuous research, however, and new studies are providing more and
more details.

Good to know:

Compared to various other cough preparations, Prospan is very versatile. It can be used not only
for acute forms of cough, but also to accompany therapy for chronic, inflammatory bronchial
conditions with coughing as a symptom.
The important active ingredients of ivy are the saponins. Where and how they act is the subject of
current research. Scientists have discovered, for example, that the dilating effect that these
saponins have on the bronchi also depends on their concentration.

The exact composition and production of an ivy extract can therefore have an influence on its actual
effectiveness. Prospan cough preparations stand out from others as they are produced using an
individual and unique manufacturing process. This exclusive process results in the unique
Prospan Special-Ivy-Extract EA 575, whose individual characteristics can be compared to a
fingerprint.

Phytopharmaceutical trend increasing demand

A study by the Allensbach Institute found that the demand for naturopathy is constantly increasing.
In the 1970s, for example, only about 50% of the population used natural remedies and now
nearly 75% of patients prefer to use plant-based medications.

Many plant-based medications today have been very thoroughly studied with regard to their
effectiveness and tolerability. For the consumer, this means very good tolerability in use.
 Phytopharmaceuticals also offer benefits from a
therapeutic viewpoint:
Many diseases have complex causes and can be better treated by combinations of active
ingredients than by a single active ingredient.
Phytopreparations often have a broader therapeutic efficacy profile compared to synthetic
drugs.
Plant-based medications are generally very well tolerated and comfortable to use.
Research and quality assurance
More than 60 years experience in basic research, continuous advancement and innovative
perspectives Engelhard Arzneimittel applies these strengths for the benefit of its patients. The
focus is on producing particularly well-tolerated medicines and medical devices, whose effect,
strength, and form of administration are all geared towards patients individual needs.

Know where it comes from our quality assurance starts long before completion of the end product.
A bottle of our cough syrup Prospan undergoes a large number of checks before it can be found on
pharmacy shelves in its finished packaging: from raw material checks to in-process controls, right
through to the seamless final inspections. As a manufacturer of medicines we assume a special
responsibility, as is reflected in our official certifications and strict production standards.

Plants are not exactly medicine

All well-researched medicinal plants valerian, St. Johns wort, ivy, etc. now exist as extract and in
the form of tablets, liquids, etc. But how does a finished medication differ from the traditional
infusions or tinctures which were often still prepared at home in Grannys day? Ivy serves as a good
example to explain the difference: the plant-based active ingredient of ivy is not the plant itself, but
rather the dried ivy leaf extract. The extract is a complex composite mixture of active ingredients,
whose composition is influenced by several decisive factors.
These include the quality of the medicinal plant and the part of it which is used as raw material, the
medium used to extract the medicinal plant-based active ingredient, and the manufacturing process
ultimately applied.

Note: there is no such thing as a specifically defined extract from a medicinal plant; a copy is
nearly impossible!
Prospan Special-Ivy-Extract EA 575
The hallmark of Prospan cough preparations is their individual and unique manufacturing process.
This patented process results in the unique Prospan Special-Ivy-Extract EA 575, whose individual
characteristics can be compared to a fingerprint.
Thats why Prospan is unlike any other ivy syrup and Prospan also has the highest ivy content.
The 4-fold power of ivy has only been shown to be present in the Special-Ivy-Extract EA
575contained in Prospan.
Unlike other, chemical cough medicine, this special extract is able to provide comprehensive
treatment for the full range of complex cough-related processes. Its ingredients can not only liquefy
the mucus, but also reduce the cramping of the bronchial muscles and relieve the urge to cough.
Many other products can perform only one function suppress coughing or the other liquefy
mucus.

History

Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine (460 to about 375 BC), helped to establish the
tremendous popularity of ivy as a medicinal plant. He still knew nothing about its
healing ingredients, however. Rather, he believed in gods and spirits who lived in the
plants and gave them their healing power.
Other physicians who also held the healing power of ivy in high esteem included both Dioscorides
(about 40 to 90 AD), military physician under Nero, and more than a thousand years later Hildegard
von Bingen (1098 1179). Hildegard recommended ivy for external use only, however, with the
explanation she gave for its efficacy reflecting a commonly held belief at the time namely, that the
disease was transferred from patient to plant.
Leonardo da Vinci (1452 1519) was also aware of the healing action of ivy: according to his reports,
wild boars cured their diseases with ivy. In the 16th century, ivy attracted increasing attention as a
drug for the treatment of inflammatory bronchial conditions. But it was not until the 19th century
that ivy made its breakthrough from simple folk remedy to a natural cough medication which could
be taken seriously.

And that happened by accident:

A physician noticed that the children in a certain region in southern France suffered from coughing
less frequently than in other places. He discovered that those children drank their milk from ivy
wood bowls. He came to the conclusion that there must be substances in the wood which were
transferred into the milk and which provided protection against coughing. And he was right. But
today we know that the active substances in ivy are primarily contained in the leaves.
