Echinaforce^® Sore Throat spray is a traditional herbal medicinal product used to relieve sore throats associated with coughs, colds and flu, exclusively based upon long-standing use as a traditional remedy. Always read the leaflet 

Although any of the remedies in the range of Echinaforce^® Echinacea drops or tablets can be used to treat sore throats, this remedy has a specially designed nozzle and spray pump, designed to deliver echinacea and sage extracts to the painful and irritated parts at the back of the throat. It is convenient to use and does not require water to take.

Echinaforce^® Sore Throat spray is part of the Echinaforce^® range of herbal remedies for colds and flu.

The benefit of using freshly harvested plant material to make our herbal remedies has been demonstrated in research – extracts of echinacea produced from fresh plants contain almost 3 times more active substances compared to those prepared from equivalent amounts of dried herb.*

Our Sore Throat spray may be used by adults (over 18 years of age) and the elderly. As a sore throat remedy, place the nozzle just inside the mouth, point it towards the back of the throat and press the pump to spray. Use two sprays, six to ten times daily. Do not breathe in during application.

Echinaforce^® Sore Throat spray comes in a bottle with a specially designed pump spray: ·

As with other sore throat remedies, do not use this product to treat your sore throat for longer than 7 days. This is because if your symptoms persist for this period of time, you should see a doctor or other healthcare practitioner.

The plants used to produce Echinaforce^® Sore Throat spray are cultivated organically in Switzerland at our own herb farms.
