Product Description
Each lozenge delivers 18.75 mg zinc as zinc acetate. The format is particularly suited for the first signs of a cold, as the active compound is released directly via the oral mucosa.
What We Like
- Zinc acetate over gluconate: better evidence base for shortening cold duration
- Pleasant lozenge taste without excessive sweeteners
- cGMP manufacturer with a reliable supply chain
- Low cost per serving
What We’re Missing
- Sugar alcohols: may cause GI discomfort in sensitive individuals
- No copper supplementation for long-term use
- Contains citric acid, which may be relevant for sensitive teeth
Usage Recommendation
At the first sign of a sore throat, let 1 lozenge dissolve every 2–3 hours, up to 6 per day, for no longer than one week. For maintenance use, choose lower daily doses instead.
