Description

Mullein tincture is primarily used to support respiratory health. The liquid extract acts as an expectorant to loosen stubborn mucus and a demulcent to soothe irritated airways. It is recommended for easing dry coughs, chest colds, and mild bronchial congestion.

Primary Uses

• Respiratory Support: Helps thin and release phlegm from the lungs while calming the throat.
• Soothing Irritation: The natural mucilage in mullein is believed to coat and soothe inflamed mucous membranes in the respiratory tract.
• Antiviral/Antibacterial Potential: Early lab studies suggest that mullein extracts may offer mild antimicrobial properties.

How to Use

Mullein tincture is typically taken orally. Users generally mix a specific dose (often 1 to 2 mL, based on product instructions) into water, tea, or juice. Some herbalists also utilize it topically to soothe minor skin irritations or inflammation, although herbal oils are more commonly used for external applications and earaches.
