Mechanism of action
Isla Junior lozenges contain Icelandic lichen extract.
The special herbal extract contained in the lozenges consists of more than 80% mucins.
When sucking the lozenges, this concentrated extract dissolves and coats the mucous membrane of the mouth and throat like a balm, where it exerts its beneficial and protective effect, thus ensuring an even distribution of the active substances.
Saliva secretion is stimulated, irritated and reddened mucous membranes can now recover and typical complaints associated with colds and sore throats such as cough, hoarseness, hoarseness, pain and difficulty swallowing disappear.
