CLEAR THE AIR.
Respiratory infections, cold, cough, sore throats and allergies often lead to phlegm, which can cause breathing difficulties. Fluimucil ($14.50 for 10 tablets; $19.50 for 30 sachets) works to clear the phlegm from your lungs with the active ingredient glutathione, an antioxidant that helps reduce free radicals and strengthen the immune system. Suitable for children above two and senior citizens, Fluimucil can be taken as a preventive measure to boost the body’s level of glutathione.
Available at all pharmacies, and selected clinics and hospitals.
