It is important to note that Decvadol lozenges are for symptomatic relief and should not be used as a substitute for proper medical treatment. If symptoms worsen or persist for more than 3 days, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

Pharmacological Effects: Dequalinium chloride exerts its antimicrobial effects by disrupting the cell membranes of microorganisms, leading to their death. This mechanism of action makes it an effective treatment for throat and mouth infections.

The study found that the group using Decvadol experienced faster resolution of symptoms and a significant reduction in throat pain compared to the placebo group.
