ALOCLAIR 60ML SYP

Colutorio Syrup/Suspension primarily acts by forming a protective barrier on the mucous membranes of the mouth and throat. This barrier is created due to the demulcent properties of its active ingredients, which can include substances like glycerin or pectin. When administered, the syrup coats the irritated tissues, providing a soothing effect and relieving discomfort. The mechanism involves reducing friction and inflammation by moisturizing and lubricating the affected areas, which aids in alleviating symptoms such as sore throat, mouth ulcers, or irritation caused by coughing. This physical action helps create a temporary protective film, allowing the underlying tissues time to heal.
