Lupin Zysils are a medication that contains two active ingredients: Dichlorobenzyl Alcohol and Amylmetacresol. These lozenges are commonly used for relieving symptoms of sore throat and mouth infections.

Uses

Lupin Zysils are primarily prescribed to alleviate symptoms associated with sore throat and mouth infections. These lozenges can provide temporary relief from pain, discomfort, and irritation caused by conditions such as pharyngitis, tonsillitis, and mouth ulcers.

To use Lupin Zysils, simply dissolve one lozenge slowly in your mouth every 2 to 3 hours as needed. Avoid chewing or swallowing the lozenge whole. Follow the recommended dosage instructions provided by your healthcare professional or as stated on the product packaging. If you are unsure about the appropriate dosage, consult your doctor or pharmacist for guidance.

Mechanism of Action

Lupin Zysils contain Dichlorobenzyl Alcohol and Amylmetacresol, which are antiseptic agents. These active ingredients work by killing or inhibiting the growth of certain bacteria and fungi that may cause infections in the throat and mouth. By reducing the number of harmful microorganisms, Lupin Zysils help to alleviate the symptoms of sore throat and mouth infections.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include a mild burning or numbing sensation in the mouth, and rarely, an allergic reaction. If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, such as difficulty breathing or swelling of the face, lips, or tongue, discontinue use and seek immediate medical attention.
