Cough Remedy: Xue Li Pei Pa Koa

Pei Pa Koa

DH has been taking Xue Li Pei Pa Koa bough in a local Chinese convenience store. He has finished two bottles since his cough started a few weeks ago. He got the cough from me last December and he did not stop coughing since then. I, on the other hand, refuse to take any cough tablet, capsule or syrup. I just took Ester- C 3x a day and drink lots of water. I got well. Meanwhile, DH is still coughing. I have now officially put him on vitamin C 3x a day. Hope he gets well soon.
