If I get a sore throat, I get it real bad - followed by a few weeks of congestion. The Betadine throat gargle reduces the severity of my sore throat massively. I always pack it when I travel.

I am sore throat prone & this product works wonder for me every time. It helps to eliminate inflammation & throat doesn't feel dry after each use. Recommended for my friends to use it too.

Since I discovered betadine I've not had a single horrible sore throat! Most importantly, at the first sign or feeling of a sore throat I gargle with Betadine. Before bedtime, brush my teeth, gargle and sleep. The next day I'm 99% cured. On the 2nd day I repeat it and no more sore throat! Its that easy & quick! Great stuff!

I had a horrible chest infection which dried out and made my throat terribly sore.
Saw a commercial for this and bought it as I was desperate for any relief, tried it and was instantly feeling better! It left a fresh, mint like feeling in the back of my throat and there was no pain, I didn't even have to gargle for 30 seconds!

Had a killer of a sore throte and been around people with an awful cold, got this from pharmacy and in the first day used it twice and had relief

I had sore throat and by reading the reviews at this website I was under impression that this is a good medicine. I bought this from Chemist warehouse. Firstly, It has a little medicine in it and can be used only up to 9 times. Secondly it is almost double price of Lozenges. Thirdly it has a bad taste and you can hardly gargle it for more than 10 seconds which makes you feel sick.
Next day I bought some Betadine lozenges with a cheaper price and they seem to work much better.

Every year of my life I would get a cold and it would always start the same way: raging sore throat, which would give way fairly quickly to a lengthy head cold. 4 years ago a friend recommended Betadine throat gargle and my colds have never been the same. It seems to significantly reduce the amount of my throat that gets affected by infection. The resulting headcold seems to be much milder too.

One of the best treatment of sore throats, I use it three times daily when I have a sore throat. All those lozenges, teas etc, only relieves the pain but betadine gargle is the best. Usually takes me 2 days sore throat to go away that's including I take vit c, etc. Is expensive but we'll worth it, I only wish I bought it when I was in europe 2010, 2011 as I got really sick both times an it all started with a bad sore throat. If you can catch the sore throat early your chances of recovery is faster than if you leave it to late an develop a cold or flu an the the annoying cough.

I bought the betadine gargle sore throat gargle from the Gold cross chemist and found it excellent to help sore throats after gargling it though it just tastes yucky aftertaste though it's kind of worth it as it settles down a sore throat and usually a sore throat is usually the first sign of the common cold illness or the flu

Have been really unwell for 2 days with a terrible sore throat.Had trouble swallowing, and eating was a big problem.Got the gargle this morning.Have used it once and within a couple of hours, relief already !!!!

Massive sore throat, pus on tonsils, unable to eat anything, agony swallowing. Tried Betadine gargle, immediate relief, Found this product absolutely Brilliant!

As I have to come frequently in contract with germ's in my line of duty, catching a sore throat is a weekly guarantee.
I had been nursing a persistent sore throat, low grade fever with tender gland's for at least 10 weeks and antibiotics made no difference to the symptom's. I immediately felt the difference from the first gargle with betadine and will surely be carrying one around with me henceforth.

I had to use it three times and then my thoart was completely back to normal. One at night and one in the morning

I used to develop a cold/sore throat when ever I travelled (must be something to with the plane and recycled air). Since I started in 2011, I prerinse and post rise with this to prevent myself getting sick. tastes terrible. works like a treat. For me, it works better than Savacol, Listerine and any other mouthrinse.
I dont travel with out this stuff.
prevents a sore throat from developing - it's a miracle!
taste

Its a great product, definitely effective. Just hope the taste would be better. But it definitely worth the money spent. I have used it twice since i bought it 2 days ago and my sore throat is almost gone. I would definitely recommend to anyone who has got really bad sore throat.
very effective
could taste better
