bitop Ectoin® Lozenges improve sore throat symptoms by almost 80 %

Dortmund, February 2019: A recently published study proved that bitop Ectoin® Lozenges effectively reduce symptoms of acute viral pharyngitis (sore throat) by 79.5 % after only one week of treatment. With this result, they show significant superiority compared to Hyaluronic acid lozenges (GeloRevoice®) in reducing redness of the mucosa in mouth and throat.

Moreover, the general condition of nearly 70 % of the patients using bitop Ectoin® Lozenges was rated as “very good” by the physician. In comparison, only 48 % of the patients using GeloRevoice® and only one fifth of the salt water group reached a “very good” condition.


The tolerability of bitop Ectoin® Lozenges is significantly superior compared to HA-containing lozenges (physician’s assessment). All patients treated with bitop Ectoin® Lozenges were highly satisfied with the pleasant wild berry taste. In contrast, 40 % of patients treated with HA-containing lozenges and 45 % of the patients treated with salt water rated the taste of their product as unpleasant.
