What <TRADENAME> looks like and contents of the pack
<TRADENAME> consists of a white to off-white solid lozenge attached to a handle for oromucosal application. The lozenge may appear slightly mottled on storage. This is due to slight changes in the flavouring agent of the product and does not affect how the product works in any way.

The dosage strength is marked on the white lozenge, on the handle, on the blister package and on the carton to ensure that you are taking the right medicine. Each strength is associated with a specific colour.
<TRADENAME> lozenges are supplied in individual blister packages.
Blister packages are supplied in cartons of 3, 6, 15 or 30 individual <TRADENAME> units. Not all pack size may be marketed.
