Pack Sizes

The lozenges come in convenient pack sizes of 24 or 16, depending on the variant, making them easy to carry and use as needed.

Directions for Use

For optimal results, allow 1–2 lozenges to dissolve slowly in the mouth every 2–3 hours. It is important not to chew or swallow them whole. Always follow the instructions on the label or consult a healthcare professional if necessary.

Intended Users

These lozenges are suitable for adults and children, with specific age recommendations. They are not advised for children under 2 years without medical guidance and may not be suitable for those under 5 years for certain variants.

Precautions

• Avoid use if allergic to menthol or other ingredients.
• Consult a doctor if you have underlying conditions such as asthma, excessive mucus, or severe sore throat symptoms.
• Those with diabetes or phenylketonuria (PKU) should be cautious due to the sugar and aspartame content.

Storage Instructions

Store the lozenges below 30°C in a dry place, away from light and moisture, to maintain their efficacy. Ensure they are kept out of reach of children and do not use if the packaging is compromised.

Possible side effects include numbness of the mouth or throat and, in rare cases, allergic reactions. Proper usage ensures effective relief and minimizes potential risks.
