FAQs

What is Plantago lanceolata used for in herbal medicine?
+

Plantago lanceolata, commonly known as Ribwort Plantain, is a native European plant with a centuries-long tradition of use in herbal medicine for supporting the comfort of the respiratory tract and soothing mucous membranes. It is one of the oldest medicinal plants in European herbal tradition and appears in A.Vogel's Coughs, Colds & Flu range as a single-herb tincture for those who want a traditional Plantago preparation.

How do I take Plantago Lanceolata Oral Drops?
+

Measure the recommended number of drops using the dropper and take either directly on the tongue or diluted in a small amount of water. The drops can be taken up to 3 times daily. Diluting in water can make the flavour more accessible if the pure tincture taste is too pronounced. Please refer to the current label for the confirmed daily dose.

Does this product contain alcohol?
+

Yes. A.Vogel Plantago Lanceolata Oral Drops contain ethanol as the extraction medium for the fresh herb tincture. Each dose contains a small quantity of alcohol. If you avoid alcohol for medical, religious, or personal reasons, this product is not suitable. Speak to our Pearl Chemist Group team for guidance on alternative formats.

Is Ribwort Plantain the same as common plantain?
+

Ribwort Plantain (Plantago lanceolata) and common plantain (Plantago major) are related plants in the same genus, both native to Europe, but they are distinct species. Plantago lanceolata has a narrower, lance-shaped leaf and is the species specifically used in A.Vogel's tincture. Both have long histories in herbal medicine, but they are not interchangeable as supplements.

How long does the 50ml bottle last?
+

Depending on dose and frequency of use, the 50ml bottle provides approximately 25–50 days of use. At a dose of 10–15 drops taken 3 times daily, it will be closer to 25 days. At a lower frequency of once or twice daily, the supply will last significantly longer. Please refer to the product label for the confirmed daily dose guidance.

Can I take Plantago drops alongside Echinaforce?
+

Plantago lanceolata and Echinacea purpurea are different herbal ingredients from different plant families, so there is no concern about duplicating the same active when taking both. They are often used as complementary products within a broader herbal cold season routine. If you are on any prescribed medication, consult your pharmacist before combining herbal products.

Are Plantago Lanceolata Oral Drops suitable for vegetarians?
+

Yes. A.Vogel Plantago Lanceolata Oral Drops are suitable for vegetarians. Please check the current product label for confirmed vegan suitability before purchasing if you follow a vegan diet.

Can I take these drops if I am pregnant?
+

If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or trying to conceive, consult your GP or midwife before using herbal tinctures. The product contains alcohol, which is an additional consideration during pregnancy. Individual medical advice is important during this time.
