Description
Instead of merely numbing pain, Boiron ThroatCalm tablets relieve minor sore throat associated with colds and hoarseness from overused vocal cords.* The tablets melt in the mouth, causing no additional pain to swallow. It targets red, raw sore throats associated with colds with intense thirst, intense salivation, or with pain spreading to the ears.
ThroatCalm is also designed for hoarseness due to overused, fatigued vocal cords, or with a dry throat. It’s ideal for teachers, coaches, singers, actors, tour guides, speakers, vocal sports fans, radio and television hosts, or anyone prone to hoarseness. This homeopathic medicine does not contain artificial colors, flavors, or numbing agents such as benzocaine, so there’s no medicinal aftertaste. Plus, it’s gluten-free.
Recommended for everyone ages 3 and up, ThroatCalm is available over the counter in a box of 60 unflavored tablets. Also try ColdCalm®, the Chestal® cough syrup line, SinusCalm®, and Oscillococcinum® for flu symptoms.
