I am having symptoms from a cold? Does Arrezt™ products still work?

Yes definitely. Arrezt® Gargle can help to quicken your recovery through the antiseptic action of Povidone Iodine, the active ingredient in our products, which kills viruses, bacteria and fungi found in your mouth and throat.
Frequent use of Arrezt® Gargle helps to lower the pathogen load in your upper respiratory tract which is key to a quicker recovery. This helps to prevent the spread of infection to deeper organs such as the brain and lungs causing a prolonged and more serious sickness. Being a broad spectrum antiseptic, it will prevent co-infection and secondary infection. In addition, it will reduce the risk of you spreading your infectious germs to the people around you such as your family members, friends or colleagues.
Use Arrezt® Gargle: Gargle every 1 hour as needed.

8. Why is Arrezt® Gargle more expensive than others on the market?
We use quality ingredients such as medical grade and organic non-GMO ingredients. We do not use ingredients such as glycerin, Polysorbates (sorbitol), PEGs and propylene glycol (PG) commonly found in other oral products. We use the best ingredients that we ourselves would feel safe using it.
9. There are so many antiseptic gargles in the market these days. How do I go about choosing one? What is so special about Arrezt® Gargle? How is it different from the rest?
Most gargles in the market are targeting either sore throat or bad breath and dental health.
Arrezt® Gargle is different. It does both and more. It not only quickens recovery from infection and soothes symptoms like a sore throat, but more importantly it reduces the chance of you getting an infection, co-infection and secondary infection from viruses, bacteria and fungi. Furthermore, it minimizes the risk of spread of infectious germs to the people around you and your loved ones.
Lastly, it helps with oral thrush and prevents tooth decay and gum disease because of our unique formula that includes Povidone Iodine, xylitol, and Zemea.
