Reviews

1. Olya. I generally do not like syrups, it is very sweet, as a rule. But syrups with menthol differ from others - they well soothe the sore throat, which for colds is of great importance. Therefore, the doctor always drank ozotole, and recently learned about joset - he is also menthol, but he has several other components, so he acts very quickly, in the first hours.
2. Anna. I use ointment "Doctor Mom" ​​always at the first manifestations of cold, very good effect is noticeable after the first application. I also use syrup and pastilles of this company. These drugs are tested for generations. I use ointment for the night, I rub the rib cage, the wings of my nose, my neck, and in the morning I feel much better.
3. Kostya. This syrup for children became our savior in due time. Nothing else helped. My daughter in the kindergarten got infected with ARVI. Of course, we not only treated the doctor, but he made a significant contribution. The liquid itself is a bright green hue, pleasant to taste, the herbal composition is felt. It smells of menthol, although it is written that the aroma is pineapple. In the pharmacy they told me that the drug was allowed to children from the age of 3, ours was just a little more. He did not notice the minuses.
