Is Pecto Drill used for dry cough and irritated throat?

For severe sore throat and very tiring attacks of dry throat cough, the doctor prescribed me Pecto Drill today and recommended "suck when I feel the need". I thought it was some kind of throat lozenge, but after reading the leaflet it turned out to be a mucolytic drug. I do not feel that anything is in my bronchi, and the cough is caused by irritation of the throat. Should I use these pills in this regard, or was the doctor simply mistaken?

The doctor conducted an examination and a thorough interview, so perhaps on this basis he considered this drug to be suitable, and the cause of cough, however, lies in the accumulation of dense, imperceptible for you secretions in the respiratory tract. I have not met with the fact that this drug was used for irritation and dry throat. In relieving throat irritation, lozenges with hyaluronic acid, such as Gelovox or Cevitt, are effective: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/32265/gelovox-wisniowo-mentolowe-tabletki-do-ssania-gryzienia-zucia/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/94694/cevitt-gardlo-tabletki-do-ssania-gryzienia-zucia/apteki On the pages above, you can compare the prices of the mentioned preparations in online pharmacies and place an order with home delivery or collection at the pharmacy. I also attach the Pecto Drill flyer and other helpful materials: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/88479/pecto-drill-tabletki-do-ssania-gryzienia-zucia/ulotka https://www.gdziepolek.pl/kategorie/bol-gardla

For @Agaa: Petit Drill syrup has a completely different composition from the Pecto Drill series: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/60853/petit-drill-syrop/apteki Petit Drill is only in syrup form and has no form in lozenges. The syrup is available in online and stationary pharmacies as a preparation without a prescription. Moisturizes and coats the back wall of the throat.

He probably rewrote Petit Drill and not Pecto Drill. Petit Drill is great for dry cough.

Today, the doctor also attributed it to me for a strong cough throat. I also read that it helps to cough, but apparently it is used in the treatment of the throat
