About Supplements.co.nz Clinicians Prospan Lozenges

Clinicians Prospan Lozenges are a unique herbal lozenge made from dried ivy leaf to soothe the throat and help clear the airways. It helps thin mucous and moistens dry irritated membranes of the airways.

Prospan Lozenges are naturally developed and scientifically proven to soothe the throat and help clear the airways for adults and children.

The lozenges have a slight orange and menthol taste and may contain air bubbles. The lozenges are derived from an active herbal substance therefore the colour and taste may vary slightly and does not affect the quality or efficacy of the product.

Ivy leaf should not be confused with poison ivy (Toxicodendron quercifolium), which is a different herb from the Anacardiaceae family (Ivy leaf is from the Araliaceae family).

Features:

• Delicious orange flavour, which helps with compliance in children and adults.

Consult your doctor if respiratory symptoms persist or worsen after 7 days. Continue to take Prospan Lozenges for an additional 2–3 days after symptoms have disappeared. Ivy leaf does not adversely interact with other medications and can safely be used by asthmatics.
