Strepsils / Dobensana Lozenges are antiseptic throat lozenges used for the supportive treatment of inflammation of the throat lining associated with sore throat, redness, and swelling.

Each lozenge contains two antiseptic active ingredients: 2,4-dichlorobenzyl alcohol 1.2 mg and amylmetacresol 0.6 mg. The combination acts locally in the mouth and throat and is commonly used at the first signs of a sore or scratchy throat.
