WHAT STREPSILS LOZENGES FOR ADULTES AND CHILDREN OVER SIX ARE AND WHAT
THEY
ARE USED FOR
Strepsils Lozenges for Adults and Children Over Six contains two
antiseptic ingredients for use in
throat medications. These are used for the symptomatic relief of mouth
and throat infections.
These ingredients are both mild antiseptics which kill the bacteria
associated with mouth and throat
infections. The action of sucking the lozenge allows the active
ingredients to work in the area of the
discomfort and also help lubricate and soothe the painful area. This
helps relieve the soreness and
discomfort of the mouth and throat infections.
