Halzin Jordgubb is indicated for the symptomatic relief of mild oral and throat conditions.

• Relief of sore throat caused by viral or bacterial irritation.
• Temporary reduction of mouth and throat discomfort associated with minor infections.

The antiseptic action of amylmetacresol and 2,4‑dichlorobenzyl alcohol may be accompanied by local side effects.

Common

• Mild transient burning or tingling sensation in the mouth.
• Slight alteration of taste while the product is in the mouth.
• Temporary dryness of the oral mucosa.
• Minor irritation of the throat that resolves quickly.

Serious

• Persistent or worsening throat pain beyond the expected duration.
• Development of an allergic rash or hives after use.
• Swelling of the lips, tongue, or face indicating possible angioedema.
• Severe mouth ulceration or bleeding not related to trauma.

When using Halzin Jordgubb, certain precautions should be observed to ensure safe use.

• Do not exceed the recommended frequency of use indicated on the product label.
• Avoid swallowing large amounts; the product is intended for local oral use only.
• Keep out of reach of children; accidental ingestion may cause irritation.
• Discontinue use and seek medical advice if symptoms persist for more than a few days.
• Individuals with known hypersensitivity to amylmetacresol, 2,4‑dichlorobenzyl alcohol, or similar antiseptics should avoid the product.
• Pregnant or breastfeeding persons should consult a healthcare professional before use.

Halzin Jordgubb may interact with other substances taken orally or applied to the mouth.

Avoid

• Concurrent use with other strong oral antiseptics or mouthwashes containing alcohol, which may increase irritation.
• Simultaneous administration of medications that cause dry mouth, as this can enhance local side effects.

Use with caution

• Use alongside systemic antibiotics; the local antiseptic effect does not replace prescribed therapy.
• Patients using anticoagulant therapy should monitor for unusual oral bleeding, although a direct interaction is unlikely.
• Individuals using topical steroids in the oral cavity should observe for increased susceptibility to irritation.
