Prevention Is Better Than Cure!

The above motto is the paramount postulate of modern medicine, which discovers many causes of diseases, still invisible, and it is better to remove these causes in time than to passively watch as disease treacherously attacks the organism.

The efforts of doctors, bacteriologists, and chemists are currently concentrated in one direction, namely to create such means that not only cure diseases but also protect against them in complicated times. Many, for example, use preventive vaccinations in the form of shots, accelerating resistance, and the use of anti-infectious agents is also recommended.

About One of the Classic Remedies

Currently used by medicine to prevent diseases resulting from infection as well as from colds, and also to strengthen the immune system, it will be useful especially during the spring season, when various flus, influenzas, anginas, catarrhs, and also infectious diseases among many children prevail.

Most of the diseases mentioned above.

Bacterial Infections

These come from droplet infection, i.e., bacteria spread during coughing, sneezing, and talking to those around. One must take into account that the carrier of bacteria doesn't have to get sick themselves, but can pass it on to another person. Therefore, first of all, there is always caution: one shouldn't get too close to strangers, and always disinfect the oral cavity.

Gargling is not a completely effective remedy, because the solution used for gargling loses its bactericidal properties, and the process of properly rinsing the throat and oral cavity requires appropriate technique.

Therefore, for preventive rinsing, Panaceum in the form of tablets for sucking has extraordinary effects, because, as research at the Oto-Laryngological Clinic of the University of Poznan has shown, within 20 minutes Panaceum kills bacteria such as diphtheria bacilli causing diphtheria, and within 10 minutes pneumococci causing pneumonia. It therefore has not only preventive but also therapeutic uses, and doctors use Panaceum for treating angina, throat inflammation, and oral cavity issues.

Research Has Confirmed

Research has confirmed Panaceum's high effectiveness over other medicinal measures, primarily over gargling and throat rinsing.
