Tablets for the symptomatic relief of mild infections of the mouth and throat with pain and without fever.
Contains 20 tablets.
Faringesic has a dual action thanks to the antiseptic action of chlorhexidine and the anaesthetic action of benzocaine.
It is therefore indicated for infections or inflammations of the throat with pain and/or without fever.
Intended for use in adults and children over 6 years of age.
Take 1 lozenge every 2 or 3 hours and no more than 8 a day.
Do not use Faringesic in children under 6 years of age, as they are more sensitive to the use of benzocaine. As in the case of people over 65 years of age, its use is also not indicated, in addition to sensitivity, because it produces hypertension.
Pregnancy and lactation: a doctor should be consulted.
Like all medicines, Faringesic may cause side effects:
Frequent: irritation in the mouth or tip of the tongue, allergic reactions due to the use of chlorhexidine or benzocaine.
Very common: Oedema (due to fluid retention), hypertension, discolouration of the teeth may occur (this is temporary and is eliminated by cleaning) and altered taste may occur.
The active ingredients of Faringesic are chlorhexidine dichloride and benzocaine. The other excipients are: sodium cyclamate, sodium saccharin, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvidone, magnesium stearate, menthol, mint flavouring.
Faringesic is a white, mint-flavoured lozenge to suck on. Take the minimum number of lozenges to relieve symptoms in the shortest number of days.
