Can Kaitongjian spray be swallowed?

Under normal circumstances, Kailuojian Spray is not recommended to be swallowed. The medication should be used as directed by a healthcare professional. Detailed analysis is as follows:

Kailuojian Spray is a medication specifically designed for local application in the throat. Its formulation and concentration are optimized to act directly on the mucosal surface of the pharynx, helping to relieve symptoms such as sore throat, inflammation, and swelling. When sprayed into the throat, the active ingredients can directly target the affected area, enabling rapid onset of action. If swallowed, the medication will pass through the gastrointestinal tract and be absorbed after digestion, which may not only reduce the local drug concentration and diminish its effectiveness in relieving throat discomfort, but also place additional burden on the gastrointestinal system, as the drug is not formulated for oral absorption. Some individuals may experience adverse effects such as nausea or bloating.

When using Kailuojian Spray, follow the dosage instructions provided in the product leaflet or as prescribed by a doctor, avoiding excessive spraying. After administration, avoid drinking water or eating immediately to allow the medication to remain on the throat tissue for an adequate period, ensuring optimal therapeutic effect. If allergic reactions such as rash or itching occur, or if throat discomfort fails to improve or worsens, discontinue use immediately and seek medical attention promptly. Special populations, including children and pregnant women, should consult a physician before use.
