Coldrex Keelpijn (Amylmetacresol, 2,4 Dichlorobenzyl Alcohol, Lidocaine Hydrochloride)

Coldrex Keelpijn is intended for short‑term relief of throat discomfort caused by minor irritations. It may be used in the following situations:

• Sore throat associated with viral upper‑respiratory infections.
• Throat pain due to mild inflammation or irritation.
• Temporary relief of mouth irritation from dryness or minor abrasions.
• Symptomatic treatment of hoarseness linked to throat irritation.
• Adjunctive care during early stages of a common cold.

Most users experience mild, transient effects that resolve without medical intervention.

Common

• Mild burning or tingling sensation in the mouth or throat.
• Temporary numbness of the oral mucosa.
• Slight taste alteration while the product is in the mouth.
• Minor dryness of the throat after use.

Serious

• Allergic reaction such as rash, itching, or swelling of the face, lips, or tongue.
• Severe dizziness or faintness.
• Persistent numbness lasting longer than 30 minutes.
• Difficulty breathing or swallowing that does not improve.

Before using Coldrex Keelpijn, consider the following safety points:

• Do not exceed the recommended frequency of administration.
• Avoid use in individuals with known hypersensitivity to any of the active ingredients.
• Keep the product out of reach of children; accidental ingestion of large amounts may be harmful.
• Do not use if you have an active ulcer or severe oral mucosal lesions.
• Consult a healthcare professional before use during pregnancy, lactation, or if you have chronic medical conditions.
• Discontinue use and seek medical advice if symptoms persist for more than a few days.

Coldrex Keelpijn may interact with other substances that affect the oral mucosa or systemic absorption.

Avoid

• Concurrent use of other topical anesthetics in the mouth, which could increase the risk of excessive numbness.
• Alcohol‑containing mouthwashes immediately before or after application, as they may irritate the mucosa.

Use with caution

• Systemic antihistamines or sedatives that may enhance the feeling of numbness.
• Anticoagulant therapy if the product causes minor oral bleeding.
• Other over‑the‑counter sore‑throat remedies containing similar antiseptic agents, to avoid duplication of exposure.
