Trochisch, also known as a pastille, is a type of sweet or medicinal pill made of a thick liquid that has been solidified. This can be consumed by light chewing and allowing it to dissolve in the mouth. It has anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effects and is useful for alleviating symptoms when catching a cold.
By slowly dissolving in the oral cavity, the dissolved components spread in the oral cavity and throat. Even with the same oral tablet, unlike buccal tablets, * ¹ and sublingual tablets * ² that act systemically, Trochisch is effective only in limited areas.
