Sugarfree Elderflower Pastilles, Dry Mouth, 2.1 oz, 3 Pack | Premium Swiss Pastilles for Voice & Throat Comfort – Sugarfree – Intense Fruit Flavor – Gift for Singers & Teachers

As an aspiring singer, I saw “Grether’s pastilles” recommended by a famous singer. In my search I found Grether’s, but Dr.Doolittle’s popped up highly ranked (and a little cheaper) as well. I bought 3 things: Dr.Doolittle’s original blackcurrant (plastic bags, 6 bags, 4 per pack = 24 pieces = $10), Dr.Doolittle’s 4 flavor variety pack sugar free (maybe 4 pieces per bag? Can’t remember. ~16 =$6.55), and finally Grether’s sugar free blueberry tin (they don’t say how many but I’d guess maybe 25 pieces? = $17). First off, flavor is a big factor for me. I have very sensitive taste buds. The Dr.Doolittle sugar free flavored pack - absolute NO from me. They were hard, weird texture when chewed, and most of them left a minty taste in my mouth. I HATE MINT. But also, minty aftertaste on something like grapefruit or lime??? Not good. Not buying these again. BUT as for the question of Grether’s versus Dr.Doolittle’s (the original blackcurrant flavor at least) they were both great, but I think Dr.Doolittle’s did a bit better for me. I found that I would take Dr.Doolittle’s every 15 minutes or so, and I could really FEEL it working. Sorry to be gross: but yes, it produced a lot of saliva. These versions were soft and the flavor was good. I don’t count Grether’s out, because they do work as well, but I didn’t feel it working as much (saliva production) and it didn’t feel as obvious, so I felt the need to take them more frequently. Basically every 10 minutes or so. Flavor was barely noticeable to be honest. Not bad, but not as good as the blackcurrant. (Which for me is surprising. I would have thought I would have liked the sweeter berry flavor better, but maybe it’s the fact that Grether’s is sugar free? I really feel this is working against it). I went through what I bought rather quickly so I stocked up, buying both Grether’s sugar free blueberry and Dr.Doolittle’s classic blackcurrant again. I have Grether’s classic blackcurrant (not sugar free) in my cart for next time, so maybe I’ll update when I’ve tried those, but it won’t be for a while. NOW: if you want to know how they worked in terms of singing - phenomenal! Highly recommend! Clearer sound, less vibrato, and overall feel like I am easily hitting notes that are usually difficult for me. But like I said, effects are pretty short. But worth it? For me, absolutely! I also had a day where I wasn’t feeling good: wasn’t eating or drinking anything, but I kept popping (the Grether’s) just to keep my mouth from going dry. It’s weird to explain, but they did help in this odd scenario. They are advertised to dry mouth sufferers as well, so I think that’s YES, they would help you, if this is your aim. So, at this very moment, #1 Dr.Doolittle’s originals, #2 Grether’s sugar free blueberry, and removed from list: Dr.Doolittle’s sugar free anything. I honestly have really high hopes for Grether’s original, too. I think the sugar free part is just making them harder to chew and more unpleasant to eat (they don’t “melt” the same as the ones with sugar) and possibly that makes it so they don’t work as well? Like the sugar actually adds to the effect? Maybe I’m making it up in my mind. But that’s the most honest review you’re going to see out of these! hope this helps others like me!

These things are magic! I came dow with a springtime chog about two months ago. I finally started clearing up by my voice was just ravaged. There were a couple of day I couldn't even talk. Throat wasn't sore, just hoarse. I found these and after just the first one my voice started coming back. Coincidence? Maybe, but the Grether's did soothe those rough edges off of my vocal cords. I'm keeping these on hand moving forward.

This is the perfect product for dry throat and the soft gel of the lozenge gently lubricates your mouth and throat with a pleasant flavor Singer, speakers, or just dry mouth this works immediately

Very effective. My go-to brand if I need more saliva for performance days, if I have a cough, or even just to protect my voice if I've been in a place where I was talking loudly for a while. They also taste very good for cough drops.

These are expensive, I know, but I just like them. I have tried the elderberry and now these. The flavor is natural and not chemical. However, you should know that they are chewy. Although advertised for throat and voice, they are not hard candies. I keep them by the piano and use sparingly, so although they are expensive they do last a long time. Given the cost, I definitely view them as one of those small personal treats I afford myself.

Love these. Also bought the CHIPS version since these are rather pricey.

Tastes good

They taste amazing, but they do nothing for my sore throat. It's more like having a piece of chewy candy than something to sooth a sore throat. Also, no where on the package does it say how many to take at a time or how many you can take per day. I had to look it up (it says don't exceed 12 a day). I also looked up you shouldn't chew it but let it dissolve in your mouth (which takes a while) and you can repeat every 2 hours. The package does, however state can have a laxative affect so just FYI. As other reviews had said they are not individually wrapped so don't keep them in sunlight or in the car.
