Sore throats are divided into types, based on the part of the throat they affect:

  • Pharyngitis affects the area right behind the mouth.
  • Tonsillitis is swelling and redness of the tonsils, the soft tissue in the back of the mouth.
  • Laryngitis is swelling and redness of the voice box, or larynx.

A sore throat is often a sign that you may have an infection in the area, but there are other things that can also irritate the throat, causing redness and swelling.

Sore throat is caused by

  1. Environmental agents – cigarette smoking, automobile exhaust fumes, dust, air, pollution, lack of humidity
  2. Micro-organisms (germs) bacteria and viruses
  3. Voice strain

3) What are the symptoms of sore throat?

The patient with sore throat may complain of:

  1. Soreness of throat,
  2. Hoarseness of voice,
  3. Pain while swallowing,
  4. Irritation of throat (pharynx).

  3. A headache
  4. Muscle aches & pains

  6. Throat problems, such as inflammation (redness and swelling)

4) What is the treatment for sore throat?
The first step is prevention. However, if you have a sore throat already, here are some options to make yourself and your throat feel better:

  • Drink plenty of warm liquids to keep your body fluids up.
  • Try to breathe through your nose. If your nose feels congested, inhaling the steam from a bowl of hot water will help it to clear it.
  • Avoid alcohol. Drinking alcohol is much more likely to irritate than soothe a sore throat.
  • Swallow – it might hurt but it’s one of the best things you can do because saliva is a natural lubricant, which can help soothe a sore throat.
  • Sucking an effective medicated lozenge like Gorpils can help lubricate the lining of the throat further, bringing real, noticeable relief.
  • For throat irritation due to environmental causes & for minor throat infection, choose one from the Gorpils range, rest assured that it will keep working, even after the lozenge has gone.

5) What is the recommended dose of Gorpils Throat Lozenges?

Adults & Elderly Children (Above 6 years): Gorpils Throat Lozenges should be sucked every 2-3 hours as required. To avoid any local irritation, it is a good idea to move it around the mouth while sucking.
No more than eight lozenges should be taken in a 24-hour period, for a maximum of three days.

6) Why choose Gorpils over other throat lozenges?

Gorpils is a soothing and medicated lozenge which contains active medical ingredients to tackle sore throat pain deep down. Gorpils provides clinically proven relief which lasts for long after the lozenge has gone.
