* [[Red Clover]] helps relieve the spasms in the bronchial walls and it also helps one expel mucus. Using its dried flower to make a tea is the most convenient form of cough management but a tincture may also be used. The demulcent and expectorant qualities of red clover make it an excellent choice in teas for whooping cough and bronchitis.
* Myrtle oil is supportive in cases of coughs, bronchitis, and hypothyroidism.
* [[horseradish]] flour is applied like a cataplasm on the chest area for a half an hour up to an hour. This treatment is repeated once every two or three days. [[Horseradish]] syrup is recommended in cases of asthma, bronchitis, breathing disorders.
* [[Bai He Gu Jin Pian]] is used in deficiency of the Lung and Kidney Yin, which results in a dry cough, dry and sore throat.
* [[South African Geranium]] : Research shows that adults and children with bronchitis who start taking a specific South African geranium extract (Umckaloabo, EPs 7630, Schwabe GmBh, Germany) within 48 hours of feeling sick have fewer symptoms after 7 days of treatment. Some studies have also used extracts in tablet form. But the tablets seemed to work only for adults, not children.
