Strepsils Original Lozenges 24s

Strepsils Original Lozenges belong to the antiseptic/local anaesthetic throat preparation class, combining two antiseptics — 2,4-dichlorobenzyl alcohol (1.2mg) and amylmetacresol (0.6mg) — in a slow-dissolving lozenge base. If you're the type who likes to know exactly what you're putting in your mouth, this is a medicated lozenge rather than a plain sweet, so it's meant to be used purposefully rather than snacked on throughout the day. Most people tolerate it well, but a small number may notice mild mouth or throat dryness, a temporary burning or tingling sensation, mild nausea if swallowed too quickly, or, rarely, an allergic reaction such as rash or swelling. It's not intended for children under 6, and if your throat discomfort doesn't ease within a few days, that's a good cue to check in with a doctor or pharmacist rather than keep reaching for more lozenges.

Adults and children over 6 years may take one lozenge every 2–3 hours as needed, up to a maximum of 12 lozenges within 24 hours. Use the lowest number of lozenges needed to relieve symptoms, and avoid prolonged use beyond a few days without medical advice.

• Mild burning or tingling sensation in the mouth
• Temporary dryness of the mouth or throat
• Mild nausea, particularly if the lozenge is chewed or swallowed quickly
• Tongue discomfort (glossodynia) with excessive or prolonged use
• Mild gastrointestinal upset from the sugar-based lozenge base
• Skin rash or itching (uncommon)
• Hypersensitivity reactions such as swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat (rare)
• Local mouth irritation with very frequent use

Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the lozenges in their original blister packaging until ready to use, and keep out of reach of children.

• Let the lozenge dissolve slowly rather than chewing or biting it
• Do not exceed 12 lozenges in a 24-hour period
• Keep the blister strip sealed until each lozenge is needed to protect it from moisture
• Store away from heat sources and direct sunlight
• Discard any lozenges past their printed expiry date
• Seek medical advice if sore throat symptoms persist beyond 3 days or worsen
• Keep out of reach of young children at all times

Allow one lozenge to dissolve slowly in the mouth — don't chew or swallow it whole, as this reduces its local soothing effect on the throat. Move it gently around the mouth as it dissolves so the antiseptic ingredients can spread evenly across the affected area.

Strepsils Original Lozenges typically have a shelf life of around 3 years from the date of manufacture when unopened. Always check the expiry date printed on the individual blister strip or outer packaging before use.

Each lozenge contains 1.2mg 2,4-dichlorobenzyl alcohol and 0.6mg amylmetacresol, two mild antiseptic agents that help provide localised relief for minor mouth and throat infections.

Strepsils Original Lozenges should not be used by individuals with a known allergy or hypersensitivity to 2,4-dichlorobenzyl alcohol, amylmetacresol, or any other listed ingredient. They are not recommended for children under 6 years of age due to the choking risk associated with lozenges and limited safety data in this age group.

Because the active ingredients act locally in the mouth and throat with minimal systemic absorption, significant drug interactions are uncommon. However, using multiple throat or cold and flu products at the same time may lead to overlapping ingredients, so it's best to avoid combining Strepsils with other medicated lozenges, sprays, or antiseptic mouth products without checking with a pharmacist first.
