TANTUM VERDE ^®LUCKY TABLETS FOR COLD

In the case of a cold, an infection of the upper respiratory tract, symptoms of a sore throat, cough and hoarseness can occur in addition to a runny nose. On average, two to four infections occur in adults each year, especially in autumn and winter. Children can get eight to ten colds a year. ⁴ The Tantum Verde ^® lozenges have a local anesthetic effect, effectively inhibit irritation in the mouth and throat and lead to rapid pain relief.


TREATMENT OF Hoarseness

Hoarseness is caused by an overload of the voice. Speaking is associated with exertion, and it is not uncommon for it to burn or pressure in the larynx. The vocal folds redden and swell due to the heavy use. ⁵ Ignoring hoarseness risks further damage such as slackening of the vocal cords. The Tantum Verde ^® lozenges have an anti-inflammatory effect against irritation in the throat.


INFLAMMATION OF THE ORAL MUCOSA
