Overview

Uses & Benefits
Symptomatic relief of sore throat, throat irritation, mild throat infections, mouth/throat discomfort due to common cold or flu
How It Works
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.
Directions for Use
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.
Side Effects
Mouth irritation or burning, altered taste, nausea, stomach upset, allergic reactions (rash, swelling), numbness/tingling in mouth
Warnings & Precautions
Do not use if allergic to any ingredients. If sore throat is severe, persists beyond 2–3 days, or is accompanied by fever, headache, nausea/vomiting, seek medical advice. Use with caution in children (choking risk; follow age guidance on pack). If you develop breathing difficulty, facial swelling, or severe rash, stop use and seek urgent care.
Drug Interactions
No clinically significant interactions expected with occasional use; avoid using multiple throat antiseptic/anaesthetic products together unless advised.
