Great Choice For Coughing And/Or A Sore Throat!!
I just wrote a review for the Chloraseptic Max Strength Sore Throat Lozenges which I got when Walmart was out of their brand. I prefer the Equate lozenges because it works just as well as the name brands for much less $. Honestly, the taste is no better or no worse on all the brands I've tried and it is nothing to write home about. The bottom line is they work well.
