Ricola: Ricola cough sweets are made with natural ingredients, including Swiss mountain herbs, and come in a range of flavours, including lemon, elderflower, and cranberry. To put it in perspective, a typical cough drop contains between 5 and 10 mg of menthol. There’s no accepted standard for a menthol overdose, but research suggests anywhere between 50 mg/kg and 1,000 mg/kg could cause a lethal overdose.
