Frequently asked questions

What is Medica Keeltabletten Honing used for?+
Medica Keeltabletten Honing is an over‑the‑counter oral tablet that combines chlorhexidine, an antiseptic, with lidocaine, a local anaesthetic. It is intended to reduce microbial growth and provide temporary pain relief for sore throat, oral mucosal infections, and minor mouth ulcerations.
How does chlorhexidine work in this product?+
Chlorhexidine Dihydrochloride binds to bacterial cell membranes, disrupting their integrity and causing leakage of intracellular contents, which leads to cell death. This broad‑spectrum antimicrobial action helps control infection on the oral mucosa.
What is the usual dose of Medica Keeltabletten Honing?+
The appropriate dose and duration are determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the individual’s condition, age, and response to therapy. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and not exceed the recommended amount.
Is Medica Keeltabletten Honing safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for chlorhexidine and lidocaine in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding should discuss potential risks and benefits with their physician before using this product.
How do I order Medica Keeltabletten Honing from GNH USA?+
Enquiries can be submitted on the product page at gnh-usa.com by specifying the required quantity. GNH USA supplies hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.
How does Medica Keeltabletten Honing compare with other oral antiseptics?+
Unlike single‑ingredient antiseptic lozenges, Medica combines chlorhexidine’s potent antimicrobial activity with lidocaine’s rapid local anaesthesia. This dual action offers both infection control and immediate pain relief, which many plain chlorhexidine or plain lidocaine products do not provide together.
What are the storage and handling requirements?+
Store the tablets at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C. Keep them in the original blister pack, protect from moisture and direct sunlight, and ensure the container is tightly closed to maintain product stability.
How is Medica Keeltabletten Honing administered?+
The tablet is intended for oromucosal use. The patient places the tablet in the mouth and allows it to dissolve slowly, avoiding chewing or swallowing whole, to ensure optimal contact of the active ingredients with the oral mucosa.
What are the most serious risks to watch for?+
Serious adverse reactions, although rare, include allergic responses such as rash, swelling, difficulty breathing, and anaphylaxis. Any signs of severe oral ulceration, Stevens‑Johnson syndrome, or systemic toxicity require immediate medical attention.
Who should not use Medica Keeltabletten Honing?+
Individuals with known hypersensitivity to chlorhexidine, lidocaine, or any formulation excipients should avoid this product. It is also contraindicated in patients who require prolonged oral antiseptic therapy without medical supervision.
