Summary of reviews
Guests have found that these throat lozenges offer a combination of cough suppression and sore throat relief, with varying effectiveness. While some guests appreciate the inclusion of an active numbing ingredient for instant relief, others are put off by the taste, which is frequently described as unpleasant. The lozenges are praised for their convenience and the ability to provide quick relief, but there are mixed feelings about their overall efficacy and flavor profile.

Best cough suppressant drop we have used

Nicole - 8 days ago, Verified purchaser
My daughter, 13, used these recently when she had a pretty bad cough and they worked really well. They are slightly numbing which she didn’t need (no sore throat) but the cough suppressant was the best she has used. She very noticeably quieted down when using these.

This was horrific, I tried this instead of cloroseptic and it truly feels like I had lidocaine injected into my tonsils and couldn’t swallow properly. It also burned until my whole throat went completely numb and then hurt even worse after it wore off.

If you are used to normal throat spray. This is not for you. It’s very strong, numbs your whole mouth worse than the dentist office. It’s extra strong!

I'm shocked to see all the reviews of how bad they taste. I think they taste so good. I just told my husband "wow, this cough drop tastes so good" . However, I took 2 stars away only because I think im allergic or possibly having a weird reaction to the way it numbed my mouth... because my entire mouth is so itchy right now. My cheeks, tongue, throat, everything is sooo itchy and now I'm afraid to go to sleep lol. But they did suppress my cough and I think the taste is great.

I had a super inflamed throat and there was not much left at the grocery store I went to. I take Mucinex-D when I have congestion and it really helps, so I thought the drops would be helpful too. They were anything but good. My throat did not benefit one ounce from these drops. Save your money and DO NOT BUY THEM! It was a total waste of money!

Numb mouth and drooling - 4 months ago
I've never had a cough drop numb my entire mouth before, and I was completely caught off gaurd as I was on the phone with my sister when it happened. I ended up drooling the entire time. Packaging is misleading. It did nothing for my throat..

I have tried all the natural options and finally decided to take this for a sore throat. It definitely helps, not a life saver but it takes the edge off just enough. It numbs your mouth and it tastes like toothpaste, both which I did not mind at all.
Works Great!

They did an OK job at keeping my cough at bay. But it took over three drops for the effects to fully kick in. The real killer of my review is the taste, it’s super weak and one of the ingredients absolutely numbs your mouth like crazy. It got to the point that it began to hurt and I had to wash my mouth with water. Would not recommend, Halls is still the goat.

I could not find Chloraseptic, so tried this spray. Note the instructions to use one spray, then spit/rinse it out. I missed the rinsing out part. The taste was horrible, made my throat sting extremely badly for 30 seconds, then my tongue started swelling to the point I was afraid I would not be able to breathe. I started to head to the ER. Swelling subsided after five minutes, and then the numbing kicked in for an hour or so. I won't use it again.
