Fighting a sore throat without antibiotics
Burning and scratching in the throat is often the cause of a cold, but it can also be caused by a sore throat, tonsillitis or laryngitis. If it is a cold-related sore throat that is caused by viruses, antibiotics are ineffective. These only help with bacterial inflammation. Dobendan® Direct Spray with flurbiprofen does not require any antibiotics, alcohol or local anaesthetics. After application, the active ingredient penetrates deep into the inflamed throat tissue and acts there against the pain and inflammation.
Fast pain relief for up to six hours

If pathogens penetrate the throat tissue, the body defends itself with an inflammatory reaction - pain, redness, swelling, difficulty swallowing or even hoarseness are the result. Reliable and rapid relief of symptoms is required. Dobendan® Direct Spray with flurbiprofen unfolds its pain-relieving effect within five minutes and relieves a sore throat for up to six hours. The active ingredient in the throat spray inhibits messenger substances that cause the inflammatory reaction. This reduces swelling, redness and pain in the throat.

FAQs:

How does the Dobendan® Direct Throat Spray work?

Dobendan® Direct Flurbiprofen Spray is a medicine for the symptomatic relief of sore throats. It contains a low dose (8.75 mg) of flurbiprofen. This non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) inhibits a synthesis step required for the production of the messenger substance prostaglandin. The throat spray works directly against the inflammation that underlies the sore throat.

Can I also use Dobendan® Direct Spray if I am taking an antibiotic?
Yes, it is possible to take Dobendan® Direct Spray together with an antibiotic that is typically prescribed for throat infections. However, antibiotics do not provide adequate relief from a sore throat, especially in the first two days when symptoms are at their worst. The additional use of Dobendan® Direct Spray can therefore help to alleviate the symptoms.

Do you have to be on strict bed rest if you have a sore throat?
Strict bed rest is not necessary with a sore throat. On the contrary: lying in bed all day can even delay regeneration. Get up in between and take a hot shower, for example. The water vapor can relieve a sore throat. Moderate activity, such as light yoga or stretching, may actually aid in recovery from a sore throat.
