A member asked:
Cough syrup is to be taken with water or not? is it has to be kept in oral cavity for a while?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cough Syrup: Hello. Your cough medication will need to be absorbed into the bloodstream to become effective. Swallow the medication with or without a swallow of water. Diluting your medications with water will have little effect.
