ISLA MOSS 60 lozenges is a medical device containing Icelandic moss extract, intended to protect and moisturise irritated mucous membranes in the mouth, throat and pharynx. The lozenges dissolve slowly in the mouth and form a pleasant protective layer that helps relieve dry, irritating cough, hoarseness, throat irritation and dryness of the mucous membranes.
ISLA MOSS is particularly useful for people who speak or sing frequently, spend time in air-conditioned or heated rooms, breathe through the mouth because of a blocked nose, or are exposed to cigarette smoke, dust and dry air.
Main benefits of ISLA MOSS lozenges
- Coat and moisturise the mucous membranes of the mouth, throat and pharynx.
- Help relieve dry, irritating cough and a scratchy throat.
- Relieve temporary hoarseness and vocal strain.
- Protect the vocal cords of speakers, teachers, singers and other professional voice users.
- Provide comfort when the mouth and throat are dry due to heating or air conditioning.
- May be used when nasal breathing is difficult and mouth breathing causes dryness.
- Suitable for adults and children from four years of age who can safely suck a lozenge.
- Practical pack containing 60 lozenges.
How do ISLA MOSS lozenges work?
Icelandic moss contains a high proportion of natural mucilage. As the lozenge dissolves slowly, these substances spread evenly across the mucous membranes of the mouth, throat and pharynx and form a protective film.
The protective layer helps retain moisture, reduces direct contact with dry air and irritating particles, and allows the irritated mucous membrane to recover gradually.
ISLA MOSS does not act as an antibiotic, antiseptic or medicine that suppresses the cough reflex. Its main function is to physically protect, moisturise and soothe irritated mucous membranes.
When are ISLA MOSS lozenges recommended?
- for dry and irritating cough,
- for scratching, burning and discomfort in the throat,
- for temporary hoarseness,
- after prolonged speaking, singing or vocal strain,
- when spending time in air-conditioned or heated rooms,
- for dryness of the mouth and pharynx,
- when breathing through the mouth because nasal breathing is difficult,
- when exposed to dust, smog, cigarette smoke and other irritants.
Ingredients
One ISLA MOSS lozenge contains:
- 80 mg of aqueous Icelandic moss extract (Cetraria islandica), extraction ratio 0.4–0.8:1.
Other ingredients: gum arabic, sucrose, liquid paraffin, caramel colour E150 and purified water.
One lozenge contains approximately 424 mg of sucrose, equivalent to around 0.035 bread units.
Directions for use
Adults and children from four years of age: slowly dissolve one to two lozenges in the mouth several times a day as required.
Do not chew or swallow the lozenge whole. Allow it to dissolve slowly so that the protective mucilage 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 can the lozenges be used?
ISLA MOSS lozenges may be used for a prolonged period when required. Consult a doctor or pharmacist if there is no improvement after approximately ten days of regular use, or if symptoms recur or worsen.
Use during pregnancy and breastfeeding
According to the manufacturer’s instructions, there are no known reasons preventing use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Pregnant or breastfeeding women with chronic conditions or regular medication should consult a doctor or pharmacist.

Pharmacist’s advice
Allow the lozenge to dissolve slowly in the mouth. Chewing or swallowing it quickly reduces the contact time between Icelandic moss and the mucous membrane, limiting the practical benefit of the protective film.
For a dry and irritated throat, increase your water intake, ventilate the room and use a humidifier when necessary. Avoid cigarette smoke, very cold or hot drinks and unnecessary vocal strain.
When hoarse, do not whisper. Whispering may place additional strain on the vocal cords. Speak softly and calmly and take breaks during prolonged speaking.
Consult a doctor if you experience a high temperature, difficulty breathing or swallowing, severe throat swelling, pus on the tonsils, blood in sputum, severe pain or symptoms lasting longer than ten days.
