Help - alternative to tyrozets

[HermioneKipper]

Sorry I know this isn’t an AIBU but I’m desperate and don’t know where else to ask.

I get terrible throats which can easily turn into tonsillitis and they’ve discontinued tyrozets which are amazing and used to stave off tonsillitis for me.

I’ve used the last of my stash and I can feel my sore throat turning south quickly. I CAN’T get tonsillitis. My daughter is back to school, i have twins to look after and my husband has already taken loads of leave etc to cover the kids sickness. I’ll probably get sacked if I take any more time off too

Does anyone know of anything similar that’s still legal to buy? Help me!

No!! I love tyrozets! I didnt know they weren't available anymore.
Not much help to you sorry, but I can sympathise x

They’ve discontinued tyrozets???

They were the best!

Oh no I just had my last Tyrozet yesterday. I can't believe they have discontinued them. I only discovered them about 5 years ago and they were the only thing that worked. Whyyyyyy?

Sorry no advice but I stock piled tyrozets as I knew they were being discontinued, they were a godsend. Gutted when we ran out. Nothing else works as good

Difflam throat spray or mouthwash. It really helped when I had tonsillitis.

Found some here

Difflam lozenges?

I got some Covonia ones from boots that the closest things I could find.

If not Difflam spray and gargling with Corsodyl works for me too.

Erm not sure but a clove of garlic in lemon juice & honey has seemed to help me with an ear infection before. It practically went overnight anyway. Maybe gargle it a bit.

Alas this doesn’t work. I was tricked by this site. Had loads in my basket, checked out and the order was accepted. But it got cancelled

Oh I’ve got some difflam. Will give it a try

Thank you! I’ll give this a go too

Why oh why did they stop tyrozets 😭😭😭😭😭

I think it was because they had an antibiotic in them

Yikes! @ThinWomansBrain isn't that in bleach? Sounds a bit too drastic. I'm sure mouthwash would do the job and be a better strength more suited to oral tissue.

@ThinWomansBrain

not remotely like tyrozets (used to love those, haven't had one in years), but try gargling with peroxide. Kills/cures anything

Are you joking?! This is trump style advice!

Go to the gp, they’ll check you over had prescribe antibiotics if needed.

Think tyrozets were discontinued because they contained antibiotics.

Cloves (chew them) are good for pain relief and are anti inflammatory.

Oh no they were the best for tonsillitis! Thankfully I've had my tonsils taken out now but you have my sympathies xx

Don't dismiss gargling with salt water either. Can stop bacterial infection.

Gargling a soluble aspirin (you can swallow the solution afterwards) helps with pain and inflammation.

Worked in a pharmacy - Chloralieve are the closest replacements we found to stock last year when we realised tyrozets had gone

It’s not tonsillitis yet and I’m praying it won’t turn into it @frazzledasarock as that will lay me up for days.

The GP is so tight with antibiotics my last bout of antibiotics nearly turned into quinsy

I wish they’d rip the buggers out with a rusty spoon but they said I have to get it 8 times in a year for them to do that!

@ZoyaTheDestroyer, a vital detail!
