COLDAMARIS® throat spray for dry and irritated mucous membranes

The mucous membranes in the mouth and throat form an important natural protective barrier against external influences.

Dry indoor air, heated air, air conditioning, smoking, or severe strain on the voice can contribute to the mucous membranes feeling dry and irritated.

Typical symptoms include a scratchy feeling in the throat, dryness in the throat, or hoarseness.

COLDAMARIS® throat spray supports moisturizing and forms a protective film on the mucous membrane.

Carragelose® – Natural ingredient from red algae

Carragelose® is a specially prepared iota-carrageenan derived from red algae.

Carrageenans belong to the group of polysaccharides and have water-binding and film-forming properties.

When applied to the mouth and throat mucous membranes, Carragelose® forms a moisturizing film.

This can help protect the mucous membrane from drying out and external irritants.

Physical protective film for the mouth and throat

The effect of COLDAMARIS® throat spray is based on a physical mechanism.

The active ingredient Carragelose® forms a moisture film on the surface of the mucous membrane.

This supports the natural protective function and can impair the attachment of certain viruses to the mucous membrane through a physical barrier.

However, the spray does not replace medical treatment necessary for a respiratory tract infection.

Supportive use for viral respiratory infections

Viral infections of the upper respiratory tract often affect the mucous membranes of the nose, mouth, and throat.

This can cause dryness, irritation, a scratchy throat, and cough reflex.

COLDAMARIS® throat spray can be used to support moisturizing and protect the affected mucous membranes.

Studies on the possible physical effects of Carragelose® against certain respiratory viruses are available. However, reliable prevention or cure of viral infections by the throat spray has not been proven.

COLDAMARIS® throat spray for hoarseness and voice strain

Prolonged speaking, singing, or frequent voice strain can lead to an unpleasant dry feeling in the mouth and throat.

COLDAMARIS® throat spray supports the moisturizing of the mucous membranes and can thus help relieve dryness-related symptoms.

If hoarseness persists, a medical examination should be sought.

Moisturizing in dry indoor air

Especially during the heating season or during prolonged stays in air-conditioned rooms, the mucous membranes can dry out.

COLDAMARIS® throat spray can be used several times a day as needed to moisturize the mucous membranes.

COLDAMARIS® throat spray contains no preservatives.

The spray system has a sterile filter that supports hygienic use with repeated use.

The solution is clear, colorless, and slightly viscous.
