Comments

This product is very effective in treating sore throat. One to four sprays is sufficient in most cases. In stubborn infections, two to three days of treatment will be required. The local application of this powder on the herpes, when the vesicles appear and ooze, very quickly removes the sensation of burning and itching in addition to accelerating the healing process.

This product has a powerful bactericidal and antiviral action. Applied directly to the infected area, throat or skin, it destroys microbes without going through the digestion process. Although the manufacturer recommends it for sinusitis and infectious rhinitis problems, my clinical experience has shown me that it is not very effective in these cases because it fails to reach the infected area. The manufacturer also recommends it for ear infections with pain, accompanied by discharge and hearing loss, but it can be dangerous to spray this product when there is a perforation of the eardrum.

If the disease does not follow its normal cycle, for example, laryngitis that lasts more than ten days, it is best to consult a traditional Chinese medicine therapist and a doctor. All infections must be fought quickly.

Cons-indications

  • Contraindicated for children under two years old.
  • Keep out of the reach of children.
