Strepsils is a medicated sore throat lozenge that provides fast-acting relief from mouth and throat infections. Each lozenge contains a combination of two powerful antiseptics that work together to kill the bacteria and viruses that cause sore throats and mouth infections. The sachet format is convenient for on-the-go relief and ensures each lozenge remains fresh and hygienic.
Strepsils is primarily indicated for the relief of mouth and throat discomfort. It is used to:
Soothe Sore Throats: Provides immediate cooling and lubricating action to an irritated throat.
Fight Infection: Contains antiseptics that help eliminate bacteria associated with throat and mouth infections.
Relieve Hoarseness: Helps clear the throat when the voice is strained or "raspy."
Reduce Dry Cough Symptoms: Calms the tickling sensation in the throat that often triggers a dry cough.
Adults and Children (over 6 years): Dissolve one lozenge slowly in the mouth every 2 to 3 hours.
Maximum Dose: Do not exceed 12 lozenges in a 24-hour period.
Note: Strepsils are not recommended for children under 6 years of age due to the risk of choking.
To get the most effective relief:
Do Not Chew: Allow the lozenge to dissolve slowly on the tongue. Chewing or swallowing it whole reduces the "contact time" the medicine has with the affected area in the throat.
Move it Around: Move the lozenge around your mouth as it dissolves to ensure the antiseptic reaches all areas of the mouth and throat.
Post-Dose: Avoid eating or drinking immediately after the lozenge has dissolved to allow the protective coating to stay on the throat for as long as possible.
The dual-action antiseptic formula includes:
2,4-Dichlorobenzyl Alcohol: An antiseptic that helps destroy the cell walls of harmful bacteria.
Amylmetacresol: A secondary antiseptic that works in synergy to stop the spread of infection.
Indicated For: Adults and children (6+) suffering from throat irritation, common colds, or minor mouth infections.
Precautions: If symptoms persist for more than 3 days, or are accompanied by a high fever and headache, consult a doctor.
Medical Consultation: Diabetics should be aware that standard Strepsils lozenges contain sugar. Consult our pharmacist for "Sugar-Free" options if needed.
Q: Can I take Strepsils if I am pregnant?
A: While Strepsils are generally considered low-risk, it is always best to consult our pharmacist or your doctor before taking any medicated lozenge during pregnancy.
Q: Is it an antibiotic?
A: No. Strepsils contains antiseptics, which are effective against many bacteria and viruses on the surface of the throat, but it is not a systemic antibiotic.
Q: How long does the soothing effect last?
A: Most users experience immediate relief while the lozenge is in the mouth, with the soothing effect lasting for up to 2 hours after it has dissolved.
