Agap Agad with Bactidol helps quickly relieve a sore throat

It’s more vital than ever to stay well these days, especially while we continue to deal with the new normal’s concerns. Taking care of oneself normally entails eating a well-balanced diet and exercising regularly, but it should also include acting quickly when common problems arise. Since the beginning of the year, there has been an increase in the number of cases of sore throat, which should not be taken for granted because sore throat can escalate from mild to severe without effective treatment.

Sore throat is one of those illnesses that can strike when people least expect it, and is mostly the result of a viral infection such as the common cold or flu. It may also be an indication of a bacterial infection like strep throat or tonsillitis. Depending on the root, a sore throat can cause a scratchy feeling in the throat, pain that worsens when talking or swallowing, and hoarseness of voice.1 A red flag is that sore throat can also lead to complications such as kidney inflammation, rheumatic fever, and meningitis if left untreated.2

The good news is there are surefire ways to eliminate a sore throat at the onset. One of the most effective methods is to gargle with a medicated mouthwash such as Hexetidine Bactidol®, which has been proven to work in as fast as 30 seconds and protects for up to 12 hours against sore throat-causing viruses.

“Bactidol® Gargle’s effectiveness against sore throat has made it the number one sore throat gargle brand in the country,” said Chili Perez, senior brand manager for Bactidol® Philippines. “Using it at the first sign of sore throat will help provide immediate relief and protection against sore throat-causing viruses.”

Bactidol® Lozenges are comfortable to take, easy to carry around, and effective in killing sore throat-causing infections for folks who live on the go.

“With Bactidol® Gargle and Lozenges, it’s easy to keep sore throat at bay and help prevent it from getting worse,” added Perez. “Sa unang kati pa lang, agap agad with Bactidol®.”

Bactidol® Gargle and Lozenges will stop a sore throat in its tracks. It is available in renowned drugstores and through the Johnson & Johnson e-Pharmacy on Lazada and Shopee.
