ISLA Medic Hydro+ Cherry 20 lozenges is a medical device intended for the intensive moisturising and protection of irritated mucous membranes in the mouth, throat and pharynx. The Hydro+ formula combines a hydrogel complex, hyaluronic acid and Icelandic moss extract, which together form a double protective film over dry and irritated mucous membranes.
The lozenges help relieve scratching and burning in the throat, dry and irritating cough, temporary hoarseness, painful or difficult swallowing, dry mouth and irritated vocal cords. Their mild cherry flavour makes them pleasant to use for adults and children over six years of age.
Main benefits of ISLA Medic Hydro+ Cherry lozenges

How does the Hydro+ formula work?
The hydrogel complex consists of carbomer and xanthan gum. Xanthan gum binds water, while carbomer swells and forms a stable protective layer that adheres to irritated mucous membranes in the mouth and throat.
Hyaluronic acid, provided as sodium hyaluronate, forms an additional moist film on the surface of the mucous membrane. It therefore contributes to intensive and long-lasting moisturisation of a dry and sensitive throat.
Icelandic moss contains a high proportion of natural mucilage. As the lozenge dissolves slowly, the extract spreads evenly across the mouth, throat and pharynx, stimulates saliva production and supports the natural regeneration of irritated mucous membranes.
The combination of these ingredients forms a double protective film that coats, moisturises and protects the mucous membrane from further drying and irritation.

Sweetener information
The product contains no sucrose but does contain sorbitol, maltitol and acesulfame K. People with intolerance to certain sugars or sugar alcohols should consult a doctor before use.

Directions for use
Adults and children over six years of age: slowly dissolve one lozenge in the mouth as required, up to a maximum of six lozenges daily.
Do not chew or swallow the lozenge whole. Allow it to dissolve slowly and completely so that the Hydro+ complex spreads evenly across the mucous membranes of the mouth and throat.
Children should use the product only when they are able to suck a lozenge independently and safely, without a risk of choking.
How long may the lozenges be used?
ISLA Medic Hydro+ Cherry lozenges may be used as required for up to 30 consecutive days or intermittently.

Pharmacist’s advice
Allow the lozenge to dissolve slowly and completely. Chewing or swallowing it quickly reduces the contact time between the Hydro+ complex and the mucous membrane, limiting the practical benefit of the protective film.
ISLA Medic Hydro+ Cherry has a more intensive moisturising formula than conventional Icelandic moss lozenges and may be a suitable choice when dryness, hoarseness, painful swallowing or vocal strain are pronounced.
Do not whisper when hoarse, as whispering may place additional strain on the vocal cords. Speak quietly and calmly, take regular breaks and drink enough water.
Seek medical advice if you develop a high temperature, difficulty breathing, an inability to swallow fluids, pronounced swelling, pus on the tonsils, severe one-sided pain or rapidly worsening symptoms.
