Why use Chloralieve sore throat lozenges?
Sore throats are a complication of temperature fluctuations, viral infections, allergies and dehydration. Many of these factors resolve naturally within a few days. However, they cause pain that significantly affects sleep, eating and swallowing. In contrast to traditional lozenges that soothe dryness, Chloralieve lozenges have a numbing and antiseptic support for a more targeted relief.
For severe cases involving fever or persistent symptoms, pair Chloralieve with appropriate remedies from our paracetamol or ibuprofen categories. People with less exposure to direct sunlight need it. We also suggest reading the included leaflet carefully.
