Children's Ultra Chloraseptic Blackcurrant Throat Spray – 15ml

Ultra Chloraseptic Children’s Blackcurrant Throat Spray 15ml is a fast-acting anaesthetic throat spray formulated to provide targeted relief from sore throat pain and irritation in children aged 6 years and over. The spray delivers a local anaesthetic (benzocaine) directly to the site of discomfort to help numb pain in seconds — without numbing the entire mouth.

This pocket-sized spray contains over 100 sprays per bottle and uses a child-friendly blackcurrant flavour to make administration easier for little ones. It’s ideal for times when a sore throat causes difficulty swallowing, interferes with sleep or makes eating and talking uncomfortable.

Pack size: 15ml
