Chloraseptic
Sore throat relief
Chloraseptic is a brand of throat spray and lozenges used to relieve sore throat pain.
The active ingredient, typically phenol or benzocaine, numbs the throat on contact.
The name combines chlor- (suggesting antiseptic properties) with septic: I need some Chloraseptic—my throat is killing me.
