Table of contents:

Fisherman's Friend Sucrose-Free Mint lozenges are primarily intended for relief of sore throat and cough symptoms. They may provide temporary relief of allergy symptoms, such as throat irritation, but they are not specifically designed for that purpose.

Fisherman's Friend offers a sugar-free mint flavor of their lozenges. The flavor provides a strong cooling sensation and helps to relieve sore throat, cough, and other cold-related symptoms. The sugar-free mint lozenges contain sweeteners such as sorbitol and aspartame, along with peppermint oil as the flavoring.

Use and Dosage

To use Fisherman's Friend Sucrose-Free Mint lozenges, place one lozenge in your mouth and allow it to dissolve slowly. Do not chew or swallow the lozenge whole. The package instructions recommend using lozenges every 2-3 hours as needed to relieve sore throat and cough symptoms.

Always read and follow the package instructions carefully to ensure safe and effective use. Consult with your healthcare provider before using any new medication or supplement, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.
