To relieve cough and effectively manage asthma symptoms, boil at least half a cup of Lagundi leaves in 2 cups of water. Drain the liquid and take ½ cup of the decoction 3 times a day. For greater efficiency, just pour boiling water over Lagundi leaves and let them soak.
For adults, you can take half a cup 3 times a day. Children or babies can be given one tablespoon 3 times a day. For children aged 2 to 6 years old, two tablespoon 3 times a day, and for those aged 7 to 12 years old, ¼ cup 3x a day is recommended.
Aside from making your own Lagundi tea at home, you can also buy Lagundi capsules, tablets, or syrup from the supermarket or your local pharmacy.
