Strepsils Ginger & Lemon Lozenges — Uses, Dosage & Benefits

Amylmetacresol 0.6 mg + 2,4-Dichlorobenzyl alcohol 1.2 mg per lozenge (typical Strepsils antiseptic formulation)

Amylmetacresol and 2,4-dichlorobenzyl alcohol are local antiseptics that help reduce growth of bacteria and some viruses in the mouth and throat. The lozenge base soothes the throat by increasing salivation and providing a demulcent effect, easing pain and irritation.

For oral use as a lozenge. Dissolve 1 lozenge slowly in the mouth every 2–3 hours as needed; do not chew or swallow whole. Use the lowest effective amount and follow pack instructions; do not exceed the recommended daily limit. Children should use only as per label/doctor advice and under adult supervision.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
