How does it work?
Ambroxol – The local anaesthetic effect
Based on many up-do-date clinical studies, ambroxol is proven to reduce the pain of sore throat. It’s safe, effective, fast-acting and long-lasting: the perfect solution to the problem of acute sore throat pain and inflammation.
Ambroxol was originally developed to be used as a treatment for chesty cough. It helps people with congested, productive cough to get rid of excess phlegm by making it looser and easier to move. But medical experts also found another important use for this medication: when used in the throat, it blocks the nerve pathways that transmit pain messages to the brain. The sore, inflamed tissue is anesthetized and you enjoy relief from pain.
The sore throat specialist
Quick, long-lasting and safe: Here’s how ambroxol gets rid of acute sore throat.
- Thanks to its pleasant flavour, sucking a Mucoangin® lozenge makes your salivary glands produce extra saliva.
- The lozenge dissolves. Ambroxol, the active ingredient, quickly spreads over the inflamed, sore tissue in your throat where it reaches the nerve fibres.
- Ambroxol blocks the special pain nerves in your throat so that they no longer get irritated and no longer communicate the pain messages to your brain. You can feel it work - the sore tissue is anesthetized.
- The result: the pain of sore throat is reduced within minutes for at least three hours!
