  Imported from the UK

  These Strepsils lozenges are specifically imported from the UK market, making them a unique option for consumers outside of the UK.

  Honey and Lemon Flavor

  The combination of honey and lemon flavoring is a unique and pleasant taste profile for a throat lozenge, providing both soothing and refreshing qualities.

  24 Count Pack

  The 24 count pack size is a larger quantity than typical throat lozenges, providing more value and convenience for the consumer.

  Hexylresorcinol Active Ingredient

  Hexylresorcinol is a less common active ingredient used in throat lozenges compared to more widely known options like menthol or benzocaine. This makes it a unique formulation.

  Gluten-Free

  Being gluten-free is a unique selling point that caters to consumers with dietary restrictions or preferences.                                                                                                                                              The key mechanism of action for Strepsils Honey & Lemon lozenges is:

  • The active ingredients 2,4-Dichlorobenzyl alcohol and Amylmetacresol possess antiseptic properties with antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral effects.
  • When combined, they have a synergistic antibacterial action, allowing for a reduced dose in the lozenges.
  • The ingredients also reversibly block depolarisation-induced ion channels in a similar way to local anaesthetics, providing pain relief.
  • Additionally, the lozenge base contains demulcent agents that have a soothing effect on the throat
