The valuation of the global sore throat lozenges market is expected to show a CAGR growth of about 5.6% over the forecast period, with an approximated valuation of US$ 7.5 billion by 2034.
Bacteria and viruses enter the throat through the thin, wet mucosa that lines the mucosal membrane and cause infection. This also causes inflammation and results in swelling, redness, and increased secretions, as well as the death of many lining cells. Antiseptics, painkillers, menthol, cough suppressants like dextromethorphan, and relaxing agents are just a few of the active ingredients included in lozenges. Sore throat lozenges and throat decongestants may include different levels of these ingredients, although being almost identical.
