Sandersons Throat Specific Lozenges

[boxtops]

Does anyone know where these can still be purchased, anywhere? I always bought them from Boots, I've scoured Amazon and eBay - the linctus is there, I have that, but not the useful honey-flavoured sore throat lozenges.

I have a throat like a razor blade this morning, and only two left.....

Infohealth Laboratories acquired the brand about 18 months ago, so they might have decided to discontinue the product. Call Infohealth Customer Sales Support on 020 3384 6550 (Extension 1) for a definitive answer.

By changing the search term from 'lozenges' to 'pastilles', Google finds loads of links that look useful but, alas, they all show 'out of stock' or, as here, 'manufacturing problem':

Given that the pastilles aren't shown on the Infohealth website, I fear that they may have gone for good :(

Tesco's sell Dual Action Honey and Lemon flavoured lozenges which I find very good
Just a thought!

Alternatively, ask a pharmacist for tablets containing benzocaine. It's a anaesthetic which is most commonly paired with tyrothricin (which is an anti-bacterial agent) when used in throat tablets.

Boots sell their own brand of such tablets, simply called 'Boots Anaesthetic and Antibiotic Throat Lozenges', while other pharmacies often stock 'Tyrozets'.
