I've noticed black mucus coming up when I cough, and it's really worrying me since I've never smoked or even drank alcohol. Do you have any idea what could be causing this? Should I be concerned or see a doctor?

I have a concern regarding the febrex plus tablet. I've noticed that every time I take it, I end up with a lot of coughing, but it doesn't seem to bring up any mucus. I'm a bit puzzled about why this is happening. Could you give me some insights or guidance on this situation?

Febrex Plus contains a combination of ingredients that can help relieve cold and flu symptoms, but one of its components, like the decongestant or antihistamine, may sometimes cause dryness in the airways. This can lead to a dry cough, as the body attempts to clear irritants without producing mucus. If this continues, it may be worth discussing with your doctor to adjust the medication.
