Covonia Sore Throat Oromucosal Spray is an over-the-counter medicine designed to provide rapid, targeted relief for painful and irritated throats. It uses a dual-action formula that simultaneously numbs pain and fights underlying infection-causing bacteria.
Active Ingredients
-
Lidocaine Hydrochloride (0.05% w/v): A fast-acting local anaesthetic that quickly numbs the throat tissue to make swallowing, eating, and talking more comfortable.
-
Chlorhexidine Gluconate (0.2% w/v): A broad-spectrum antiseptic that reduces micro-organisms and helps prevent secondary bacterial infections.
How to Use
-
Target Group: Adults, the elderly, and children over 12 years old.
-
Dosage: Deliver 3 to 5 sprays directly to the back of the throat per application.
-
Frequency: You can apply the spray 6 to 10 times a day as needed.
-
Application: Lift the adjustable nozzle 90° to a horizontal position, point it at the back of your throat, and press the pump. Turn the nozzle back down after use to close it.
Safety and Warnings
-
