Troubleshooting
Lozenges dissolve too quickly
Try not to suck on the lozenge vigorously; allow it to dissolve naturally at its own pace in your mouth.
Minimal throat relief experienced
Ensure the lozenge is allowed to dissolve fully in the mouth, coating the throat. For persistent or severe discomfort, consult a healthcare professional.
