Prospan is a familiar face on pharmacy shelves, built around ivy-leaf extract as the core ingredient across its range. It's the kind of brand many South African families already recognise from the cough-and-cold aisle, especially through the colder months when coughs and sniffles are going around at home.

The range spans a classic cough syrup, a menthol version with a cooling effect, lozenges and effervescent tablets, so there's a format to suit different ages and preferences within the same household. Because directions and suitable ages differ from product to product, it's worth checking the label or asking your pharmacist which option fits your child best. Browse the full Prospan range at Pandylane to find the format that works for your home.
