Paira Validol with glucose No. 10

What This Lozenge Is

Para* Validol with glucose by Planeta Zdorovia is a classic lozenge format familiar to many generations in Eastern Europe. Each tablet combines menthol dissolved in menthyl isovalerate with a base of glucose, giving the well-known cool, slightly sweet taste that melts under the tongue within a couple of minutes.

How It Works

The way this lozenge works is mostly local and reflex. When menthol contacts the cold receptors of the mouth and tongue, it triggers a mild reflex response that many people perceive as a calming, refreshing sensation.

What makes this particular version interesting is the glucose carrier instead of plain sugar or sorbitol:

• Menthol in menthyl isovalerate — delivers the familiar cool sensation via contact with cold receptors of the mouth and tongue.
• Glucose base — dissolves quickly, provides a small fast source of simple carbohydrate, and gives a cleaner, gentler sweetness than plain sugar or sorbitol.

The pack contains 10 lozenges — a practical travel-sized format easy to keep in a car, a desk drawer, or a bag.

When People Reach for It

This lozenge is typically chosen in specific everyday situations:

• Long drives where motion sickness is a concern
• Crowded public transport or stuffy rooms
• Moments of fatigue when a quick source of simple carbohydrate is welcome
• Stressful situations when a familiar, soothing taste helps

It is not meant to replace medical treatment and should not be used as a response to chest pain or cardiac symptoms — those situations always require a doctor.

Important Notes

• Blood sugar: the lozenge contains glucose — people managing blood sugar levels should take this into account.
• Children: menthol preparations are generally not recommended for small children.
• Sensitivity: individual sensitivity to menthol or essential oils is possible.
• Special circumstances: if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking prescription medication, or have a chronic condition, consult a pharmacist or physician before use.
