A.Vogel's Plantago Drops is a traditional herbal remedy used in the treatment of sinus congestion, middle ear infections, post nasal drip and catarrh. Plantago is one of the few herbs that penetrate the middle and inner ear canal. It has natural antibacterial properties. 
Plantago lanceolata, or as it is more commonly known, Lance Leaf Plantain, can be found in all but the most acidic grasslands in Britain and many parts of Europe.
Plantago is a perennial herb and provides a nutritious food source to wildlife as well as agricultural animals. Culpepper, the well known herbalist, described the herb as both astringent and soothing. Some years later, Alfred Vogel also found Plantago to be one of the ‘undervalued’ plants used in healthcare.

I tried taking this to help a persistent nasal drip & didn't think it had made much difference until I returned from a holiday & found it was much worse so I returned to taking the tincture twice a day & it certainly helps. While it does not completely stopped the nasal drip I was interested to read that it can help with tinnitus which I recently developed so I will continue with my second bottle in the hopes that it will help this too. I also suffered from a continuous dry cough which was diagnosed as reflux (!) & after a prescription of anti-acid pills seemed to fix it I figured it makes sense to keep taking it for that too!

My partner has constant sinus issues and this seems to be working well in clearing them and helping him to sleep and breathe better, also snoring is massively reduced. Can’t recommend it more highly enough.

I have the post nasal drip down syndrome and I've been suffering for years and the only solution my doctor gave me was a nasal spray which didn't help at all. Since I'm taking Thyme Complex in Combination with Plantago tincture and marshmallow capsules my life has changed. The dripping has stopped and I can finally breathe through the nose. I would highly recommend this combination.

When I read the reviews for this product I felt so hooeful it would help me too. I suffer from perennial allergic rhinitis and my nose blocks when I go to bed which makes it difficult for me to fall asleep. I tried Plantago for 2 weeks but didn't notice any difference at all. I was really dissapointed. The taste is awful. I had to put it in juice so that I could stomach it. I thought I'd found something that was finally going to help me, but no, it didn't, so dissapointed.

I suffer from blocked sinuses in the mornings. I used to take an over the counter drug which left my mouth dry. So happy to discover the more natural Plantago which really works well for me as a decongestant.
