GeloRevoice Throat Lozenges, 20 Pack

As a lozenge dissolves, its gel-forming ingredients (xanthan, carbomer and sodium hyaluronate) bind with saliva and form a gel film over the lining of the mouth and throat. The tube of 20 fits a gig bag or wash bag.

How to use

• Suck one lozenge slowly until it has dissolved fully; do not chew it or swallow it whole.
• Use as needed, for example every 2 to 3 hours, up to 6 a day. The manufacturer suggests taking them after meals.
• The manufacturer says they can be used for longer periods or on and off. See a doctor if symptoms get worse (for example fever, a swollen throat or aching limbs) or do not improve within 3 days.
• Store below 25 °C in a dry place and close the tube after each lozenge.

Warnings from the instructions

• Not for children under 6.
• Do not use if you are allergic to any ingredient, or if you have hereditary fructose intolerance (the lozenges contain isomalt).
• Ask a doctor or pharmacist before first use if you produce less saliva than normal.
• Do not suck a lozenge lying down, for example when falling asleep: there is a risk of swallowing it.
• Do not use at the same time as other products used in the mouth and throat.
• Used in excess, the lozenges can have a laxative effect or cause stomach and bowel upset.
• Each lozenge contains 3.2 mmol of sodium, which matters on a low-salt diet.
