Safety information

Who should not use it

Do not take if you are allergic to thyme, other plants of the mint family (Lamiaceae) or any of the ingredients; if you have hereditary fructose intolerance; or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Warnings & precautions

See a doctor if you become short of breath, develop a fever, or cough up discoloured or pus-like phlegm. If you have asthma or allergies, talk to your doctor before use. Each pastille contains 523mg of sorbitol and 300mg of fructose. Take this into account if you use other products containing them, and talk to your doctor if you have an intolerance to some sugars. Sorbitol can affect how some other medicines taken at the same time are absorbed. The flavouring contains a tiny amount of benzyl alcohol, which may cause allergic reactions.

Pregnancy & breastfeeding

Do not take if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as there is not enough information on safety.

Possible side effects

Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea or stomach discomfort, or a skin rash, hives or itching may occur (how often is not known). A severe allergic reaction can also occur: stop taking them and get medical help straight away if you have swelling of the face, lips or throat, difficulty breathing or feel faint.

Always read the label

This is a medicine. Always read the label and patient information leaflet before use. If symptoms persist, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
