When using Morrisons Children’s Dry Tickly Cough, consider the following safety measures.

- Age limitation: Use only in children as directed by a healthcare professional. - Allergy: Avoid if the child has known hypersensitivity to glycerol or any formulation excipients. - Diabetes caution: Monitor blood glucose because glycerol can contribute to carbohydrate load. - Concomitant laxatives: Use with caution if other osmotic agents are being taken. - Storage: Store below 25°C: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Glycerol may interact with certain medicines; awareness helps prevent complications.
