An antiseptic is used to slow down or stop the growth of germs on surfaces. For example, antiseptic solutions are used for wounds (e.g., iodine) and hand sanitization (e.g., alcohol). The antiseptic agents in Mybacin Mint lozenges are 2,4-Dichlorobenzyl Alcohol and Amylmetacresol.

Mybacin Mint lozenges provide dual antiseptic and anesthetic protection, while some medicated lozenges contain non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) [e.g., benzydamine, flurbiprofen] that mainly reduce inflammation. Herbal lozenges, on the other hand, are suited for mild throat discomfort and dryness. In summary, different lozenges serve different throat care purposes depending on their ingredients and intended effects.

Eldon Mybacin Mint is the authentic Thai product, directly imported from the same manufacturer (Greater Pharma Company Limited). Both products have identical ingredients, with the only difference being packaging adjustments to comply with Malaysian regulations.
