    А лучше всего, по-моему, не затягивать до ангины. Моему сыну на ранней стадии Тонзилотрен помог. А всякие народные средства, включая прополис, полоскание с солью и содой. оказались бесполезными!

    Очень действенным является полоскание горла при ангине настоем ромашки. Цветки ромашки приобрести можно в любой аптеке вашего места жительства. Придя домой сразу же кипятите воду, насыпьте в литровый сосуд большую ложку (можно с горой) ромашковых цветков. Залейте достаточным количеством воды, пусть настоится часа четыре

    Полоскала горло шалфеем когда была ангина. Но одних полосканий не достаточно оказалось. Врач назначила Тонзилотрен рассасывать каждые 2 часа. Тогда легче стало в разы.
