Statement of the Problem
The study was conducted to answer the following questions:
1. How does cough affect your daily activities in life?
2. Can we produce our own carbocisteine (herbal medicine which cures cough) out of lagundi leaves?
3. Is it safe drinking the lagundi syrup made out of lagundi leaves?
4. Is there any significance difference between the occurrence of cough before and after giving lagundi syrup?
5. Is lagundi only a remedy for coughs?
Hypothesis
In this study, the researchers hypothesized in the investigation that:
1. Coughing can either alter level of concentration of a person thus making him/her unable to perform usual task.
2. We can produce carbocisteine lagundi syrup out of lagundi leaves, brown sugar, and vinegar.
3. Lagundi is safe for use for children and adults and no adverse reaction has been reported. However, moderate use is recommended for pregnant women, and treatment should not exceed one week.
4. There is no significant difference between the frequency of cough before and after giving lagundi syrup.
5. No. Lagundi is taken to cure coughs, asthma, and other respiratory concerns.
Related Studies
Lagundi (scientific name: Vitex negundo) is a shrub that grows in the Philippines. It is one of the ten herbal medicines endorsed by the Philippine Department of Health as an effective herbal medicine with proven therapeutic value. Commonly known in the Ilocos region as dangla, lagundi has been clinically tested to be effective in the treatment of colds, flu, bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis, and pharyngitis. Studies have shown that Lagundi can prevent the body’s production of leukotrienes, which are released during an asthma attack. Lagundi contains Chrysoplenol D, a substance with anti-histamine and muscle relaxant
