Benefits of Drez Gargle

Treatment of Sore throat
Sore throat refers to pain and discomfort in the throat that is usually seen in bacterial or viral infections. Drez Gargle is generally very safe, works quite quickly and will reduce the pain and discomfort that might be caused by sore throat. It kills the microorganisms causing the infection in the throat and makes you feel better. This helps to soothe the irritated throat and speeds up the recovery process. You may also drink warm water/drinks such as ginger tea, avoid cold foods and take a steam bath for additional relief.

Treatment of Mouth infection
Whenever there is an overgrowth of microorganisms in our mouth, that are otherwise normally present, it can lead to unpleasant symptoms suggestive of mouth infection. These symptoms include bad breath, swollen gums, unpleasant taste changes, sensitivity of teeth to hot or cold food/liquid etc. Drez Gargle kills and prevents growth of these bacteria, thereby relieving these symptoms. This helps in maintaining good oral hygiene.

Poor oral hygiene can be extremely embarrassing and can affect your social life. This medicine helps restore your self confidence and makes it easier for you to go about your daily activities. Continue using it as advised by the doctor to get maximum benefit.

Drez Gargle kills and prevents the growth of infection-causing microbes, thereby preventing abrasions, cuts, and wounds, or any break in the skin from getting infected. The antiseptic effect is caused due to the slow release of iodine. Keep the affected area clean and use the medicine as prescribed by your doctor.
