Frequently asked questions

What is Mentocaína Mel E Limão used for?+
Mentocaína Mel E Limão is an oral antiseptic indicated for the symptomatic relief of sore throat, the management of oral mucosal infections and the soothing of minor mouth ulcers. It works locally on the oropharyngeal mucosa to reduce bacterial and viral presence.

Amylmetacresol exerts its antiseptic effect by inserting into microbial cell membranes, disrupting their structural integrity. This leads to leakage of intracellular components and cell death, providing both bactericidal and virucidal activity against a broad range of oral pathogens.
