Chloraseptic is an American brand of oral analgesic that is produced by Tarrytown, New York-based Prestige Consumer Healthcare, used for the relief of sore throat and mouth pain. Its active ingredient is phenol (just in Sore Throat Spray, not in Sore Throat Lozenges), a compound whose antiseptic properties were discovered by Friedlieb Ferdinand Runge. Other Chloraseptic formulas are based on benzocaine. Chloraseptic was invented and originally made by Robert Schattner; it was later bought by Richardson-Vicks, which merged with Cincinnati, Ohio-based Procter & Gamble in 1985. Its current spray products include Cherry Throat Spray, MAX Wild Berry Targeted Throat Spray, Menthol Throat Spray, Warming Honey Lemon Throat Spray, Cherry On-The-Go Throat Spray, and Citrus Throat Spray. Its current lozenge products include MAX Wild berry, TOTAL Wild Cherry, Cherry with Soothing Liquid Center, TOTAL Sugar-Free Wild Cherry, Citrus with Soothing Liquid Center, and Warming Honey Lemon.
