Cepacol Extra Strength Sore Throat & Cough Drop Lozenges, Cherry 16ct: Health & Personal Care

Description

A sore throat is often a sign that you may have an infection caused by viruses. But there are other things that can irritate the throat, causing redness and swelling. These include cigarette smoke, a polluted environment, voice strain or even changes in air temperature. The early signs of sore throat can be mild at first. Watch out for dryness, discomfort when talking or swallowing, or a mild tickle. It can also be an early sign of a cold. Keep an eye out for cold symptoms such as headache, runny nose, or aches and pains. At the first sign of a sore throat, you can fight back with lozenges. Sucking lozenges increases saliva and lubricates the throat. Additionally, medicated lozenges like Cepacol provide numbing pain relief that other home remedies and cough drops simply cannot. This is particularly helpful when your sore throat causes swallowing or talking to be painful, or when you want to numb the sore throat pain to get on with your day. Get fast-acting sore throat relief with honey lemon flavored Cepacol. Our soothing lozenges provide maximum strength relief to alleviate your sore throat pain and help you feel better. Also available in mixed berry, honey lemon, cherry and sugar free cherry. ee Warnings: Allergy alert: Do not use this product if you have a history of allergy to local anesthetics such as procaine, butacaine, benzocaine or any other 'caine' anesthetics.
