Vicks Vorja Lemon Spray 30 ml for Sore Throats

Why use Vicks Vorja Lemon spray for a sore throat?

When you have irritation in the mouth and throat or a cold, swallowing becomes painful. Vicks Vorja Lemon Spray (30 ml ) provides targeted, fast-acting relief directly to the inflamed areas of the throat:

1. Rapid local anesthetic action: Lidocaine hydrochloride (0.5 mg/mL) numbs the oral and oropharyngeal mucosa to quickly relieve burning sensations and pain when swallowing.
2. Powerful antiseptic action: Chlorhexidine gluconate (2 mg/ml) disinfects the oropharyngeal area and eliminates bacteria and pathogens responsible for irritation.
3. Sugar-free lemon-flavored formula: Sweetened with sucralose, this formula provides a pleasant lemon taste without added sugar.
