Humex Mal De Gorge Menthe (Amylmetacresol, 2,4 Dichlorobenzyl Alcohol, Lidocaine Hydrochloride)

Humex Mal De Gorge Menthe is intended for short‑term relief of throat discomfort. It is commonly used when a mild sore throat or irritation is present.

• Relief of acute sore throat caused by viral or bacterial irritation
• Reduction of throat pain and scratchiness
• Temporary soothing of minor mouth or throat inflammation
• Adjunctive care for throat irritation associated with dry indoor environments
• Supportive symptom management during early stages of upper respiratory infections

• Amylmetacresol and 2,4‑dichlorobenzyl alcohol act as broad‑spectrum antiseptics that disrupt microbial cell membranes, reducing bacterial and viral load in the oropharynx. Lidocaine hydrochloride blocks voltage‑gated sodium channels in peripheral nerve endings, producing local anaesthesia that diminishes the perception of pain in the throat.
