Indications & Clinical Uses

Medica Keeltabletten Menthol, containing chlorhexidine and lidocaine, is used for conditions affecting the oral mucosa.

  • Sore throat: reduces pain and bacterial load in the pharyngeal area.
  • Oral mucosal infections: provides antiseptic activity to limit microbial growth.
  • Oral pain relief: numbs local tissue to alleviate discomfort from lesions or irritation.

How It Works

  • Chlorhexidine Dihydrochloride disrupts bacterial cell membranes, leading to loss of integrity and cell death, while Lidocaine Hydrochloride blocks voltage‑gated sodium channels in peripheral nerves, preventing depolarisation and producing local anaesthesia in the oral mucosa.

Side Effects

Adverse reactions may occur with oromucosal use of Medica Keeltabletten Menthol.

Common Side Effects

  • Metallic taste: transient alteration in taste perception.
  • Oral irritation: mild burning or tingling in the mouth.
  • Transient numbness: temporary loss of sensation at the site of contact.
  • Nausea: occasional upset stomach.
  • Dysgeusia: temporary change in taste.
  • Mild rash: localized skin irritation.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Anaphylaxis: severe allergic reaction requiring immediate medical attention.
  • Angioedema: swelling of the face, lips, or tongue.
  • Prolonged numbness: extended loss of sensation beyond expected duration.
  • Mucosal ulceration: development of sores in the oral cavity.
  • Systemic toxicity: signs such as seizures or cardiac arrhythmia.
  • Stevens‑Johnson syndrome: rare severe skin reaction.

  • Pregnancy: consult a healthcare professional before use.

  • Age: not recommended for children under two years without medical advice.
  • Allergy: avoid if known hypersensitivity to chlorhexidine or lidocaine exists.
  • Drug interactions: review concomitant medications for possible interactions.
  • Store at ambient temperature: keep in the original pack, protect from moisture and heat.

Avoid Interactions

Medica Keeltabletten Menthol may interact with other medicines; awareness of major and moderate interactions is important.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Concurrent use with other local anesthetics: risk of additive toxicity.
  • Use with systemic antihistamines: may mask early signs of allergic reactions.
  • Combination with other chlorhexidine‑containing products: increased irritation risk.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

Frequently Asked Questions

Medica Keeltabletten Menthol is an oromucosal tablet that combines chlorhexidine, an antiseptic, with lidocaine, a local anaesthetic. It is used to relieve pain and reduce bacterial load in conditions such as sore throat, oral mucosal infections, and other sources of mouth pain.

Chlorhexidine Dihydrochloride disrupts the integrity of bacterial cell membranes, causing leakage of intracellular contents and cell death. This broad‑spectrum antimicrobial action helps control infection on the oral mucosa when the tablet dissolves in the mouth.

The appropriate dose is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the patient’s age, severity of symptoms, and overall health status. No standard dosing regimen is provided here; the prescriber will specify the exact amount and frequency.

Safety data for chlorhexidine and lidocaine in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should discuss potential risks and benefits with their physician before using this product.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com, indicating the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Unlike simple chlorhexidine mouthwashes, this tablet adds lidocaine for immediate pain relief while still delivering antiseptic action. Compared with purely analgesic lozenges, it also provides antimicrobial activity, offering a dual approach to both infection control and symptom management.

Store the tablets at ambient temperature, ideally below 25 °C. Keep them in the original packaging, protect from moisture and direct sunlight, and ensure the container is tightly closed to maintain product stability.

The tablet is placed in the mouth and allowed to dissolve slowly, ensuring contact with the oral mucosa. It should not be swallowed whole; let it dissolve completely to deliver both antiseptic and anaesthetic effects.

The most serious risks include severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, angioedema, and rare skin conditions like Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. If any signs of a serious reaction appear, discontinue use immediately and seek emergency medical care.

Individuals with a known hypersensitivity to chlorhexidine, lidocaine, or any excipients in the tablet should avoid it. Children under two years of age should not use it without medical supervision, and patients with severe cardiac or hepatic impairment should consult a physician before use.
