PROPERTIES
Dorithricin
®
Throat Lozenges are highly effective in the treatment of painful
inflammations of
the oral cavity and pharynx. They are fast painkillers due to the

highly
effective

directed
at
the most frequently

combining
the
two
antimicrobial
active
substances,
the

pathogens
are
also
overcome.
