Description

Strefen Honey & Lemon provides targeted relief from sore throat pain by helping to reduce inflammation in the affected area. Unlike simple throat sweets, Strefen Honey & Lemon works at the site of pain to ease discomfort when swallowing. The honey and lemon flavour offers a soothing sensation while the active ingredient takes effect.

  • Contains an anti-inflammatory ingredient for pain relief
  • Helps reduce throat inflammation
  • Soothing honey and lemon flavour
  • Suitable for short-term sore throat treatment

Directions

Dissolve one Strefen Honey & Lemon lozenge slowly in the mouth every three to six hours as needed. Do not chew or swallow the lozenge whole, and allow it to dissolve fully for best effect. Do not take more than the maximum number stated on the packaging within a twenty-four hour period.

Strefen Honey & Lemon is generally recommended for adults and children over a specified age; always check the leaflet before use.

Ingredients

Strefen Honey & Lemon contains flurbiprofen 8.75 mg as the active ingredient, which is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that helps relieve pain and reduce swelling.

Strefen Honey & Lemon also contains flavourings, sweeteners and other standard excipients that form the lozenge base. The full list of ingredients is provided in the patient information leaflet.

Always review the ingredient list if you have allergies or sensitivities.

Warnings

Do not use Strefen Honey & Lemon if you are allergic to flurbiprofen, aspirin or other NSAIDs. Avoid using Strefen Honey & Lemon if you have a history of stomach ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding or severe heart, liver or kidney conditions unless advised by a doctor.

Do not take Strefen Honey & Lemon with other NSAID-containing medicines.

Consult a healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or taking other medication, and seek medical advice if symptoms persist or worsen.
