Cough suppressant composition

A cough suppressant composition for successfully treating coughs. The cough suppressant composition includes black pepper and at least one flavorant diluted in an aqueous solution.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIG. 1 thereof, a new cough suppressant composition embodying the principles and concepts of the present invention and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described. As best illustrated in FIG. 1 , the cough suppressant composition 10 generally comprises black pepper and at least one flavorant diluted in an aqueous solution. The aqueous solution of which comprises black pepper and at least one flavorant includes at least 85% by volume of water with the remaining balance being that of black pepper and at least one flavorant. The aqueous solution further includes approximately one part of black pepper and from &frac13; to &frac23; parts of the at least one flavorant to 16 parts of water. The aqueous solution also includes approximately one tablespoon of black pepper; from one teaspoon to two teaspoons of at least one flavorant; and approximately 8 fluid ounces of water. The black pepper is essentially black pepper corn with the at least one flavorant being sugar and lemon juice. In use, the aqueous solution including black pepper, sugar and lemon juice is brought to a boil and is then allowed to cool and stored for later use. When needed, the cooled solution is consumed by the user by drinking the solution without any need to worry about how much to take. As to a further discussion of the manner of usage and operation of the present invention, the same should be apparent from the above description. Accordingly, no further discussion relating to the manner of usage and operation will be provided. With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention. Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
