Emser Pastilles without menthol

In over 90% of cases, sore throats are caused by viruses, only 10% have bacterial causes. This means that antibiotics often have no effect because they are only effective against bacteria. In many cases sore throats are caused by cold stimuli and dry room air. These triggers can weaken the protective function of the mucous membranes of the throat and pharynx, making them more susceptible to viruses. The consequences can be: -sore throat - difficulty swallowing - coughing - hoarseness Good to know: Intense use of the voice can also lead to a scratchy, hoarse voice, as can ascending stomach acid, which can also cause irritation in the throat area. The triggers for sore throat, coughing and hoarseness can therefore be different. The cause, on the other hand, is usually an irritation or inflammation of the dried throat and pharynx mucosa. Emser Pastilles throat tablets can counteract this cause by moisturising the throat and pharynx and slowing down the inflammatory process. They thus relieve swallowing difficulties, coughing and hoarseness at the first signs - with the help of the Emser Mineral Complex.
