Active Ingredient
benzydamine 3mg/mL. Also contains: Ethanol, methyl hydroxybenzoate, saccharin sodium
Benzydamine belongs to a family of medicines known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS). They work to reduce pain and inflammation in the body, by reducing the production of hormone-like substances that promote the inflammatory response. Benzydamine does not treat the underlying cause of the inflammation, however, and should not be used for extended periods of time without medical advice. Benzydamine also possesses local anaesthetic activity to further enhance pain relief.
Dosage

- Do not use for more than 7 days without medical advice

If you experience difficulty breathing or develop swelling of the face and lips following use of Difflam Anti-inflammatory Throat Spray, seek emergency medical attention.
