Anatoly Sergeevich, the therapist
In our family Trachisan is used often: children, like me, have a weak throat, and the husband 3-4 times a year suffers from stomatitis. Before that, many drugs have been tried, but this drug is an ideal option for us, because it helps everyone. The effect is really noticeable after two or three tablets, and in a few days the disease most often passes. The price, of course, is high, almost 500 rubles per package, but you can not buy health cheaply.

The miraculous properties of this drug are nothing more than an advertising move. I do not argue, the drug is good, it helps quickly, but there are many other means with the same degree of efficiency, but for less money. In the end, we pay for the result, not for the beautiful packaging and taste qualities. Of course, if it is a child, it is better to give them pleasant tasting tablets, but for yourself you can buy cheaper medicine, it will act no worse.
