How Strepsils Menthol Lozenges Work

The unique dual antiseptic formula in Strepsils Menthol Lozenges Pack of 36 helps to:

• Kill Bacteria: The active ingredients are mild antiseptics that combat bacteria, which can contribute to sore throat and mouth infections.
• Soothe Discomfort: The lozenge's action lubricates your throat, helping to reduce dryness and the raw, painful feeling often associated with a sore throat.
• Provide Cooling Relief: Menthol offers an immediate refreshing and cooling sensation, making swallowing more comfortable.

For best results, allow the lozenge to dissolve slowly in your mouth. This ensures the active ingredients are released gradually, providing continuous relief and allowing them to work effectively where they are needed most.
