HLP Ivymint Menthol Drops

HLP Ivymint Menthol Drops is an over-the-counter (OTC) herbal lozenge product manufactured by HLP Lifesenze in Malaysia. Each drop is formulated with five traditional herbal extracts — Ivy Leaf (Hedera helix), Pelargonium root, Propolis, Licorice root, and Mountain Tea — presented in a small, slow-dissolving lozenge form with a menthol flavour.

Each pack contains 8 individually wrapped drops, designed to be dissolved slowly in the mouth one at a time rather than chewed or swallowed whole. This individually wrapped format is intended to keep each drop hygienic for use on the go, at work, or while travelling.

As an OTC product, HLP Ivymint Menthol Drops can be purchased without a doctor’s prescription through pharmacies and online retailers in Malaysia. It is one of two flavour variants in the HLP Ivymint Drops range — the other being an Honey Lemon flavour — and shares its core herbal extract blend with HLP’s Ivymint Cough Syrup, which uses the same extracts in a liquid dosage form.

• Allow one drop to dissolve slowly in the mouth; do not chew or swallow it whole.
• Take one drop at a time, following the frequency for your age group in the Dosage section.
• Not intended for children under 6 years of age.
• If throat discomfort persists for more than a few days, stop use and consult a doctor or pharmacist.

Based on the directions listed by independent Malaysian retailers of this product:

• Children aged 6 years and above: 1 drop, twice daily.
• Adults and children aged 12 years and above: 1 drop, three times daily.
• Do not exceed the stated frequency in a 24-hour period unless advised by a healthcare professional.

Use before the expiry date printed on the pack. Do not use HLP Ivymint Menthol Drops if the expiry date has passed or if the packaging or individual wrapper is damaged.

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the pack tightly closed between uses, and keep out of reach and sight of children.

• Common: Mild mouth or tongue irritation in sensitive individuals.
• Common: Temporary change in taste perception while the drop is dissolving.
• Serious: Allergic reaction, such as swelling of the lips, tongue or throat, rash, or difficulty breathing — stop use immediately and seek urgent medical attention if this occurs.

• Known allergy or hypersensitivity to ivy leaf, pelargonium, propolis, licorice root, mountain tea, menthol, or any other listed ingredient.
• Known allergy to bee products, since propolis is bee-derived.
• Not recommended for children under 6 years of age because of the choking risk associated with lozenge-type products.

• No clinically significant drug interactions have been established for this herbal lozenge formulation at typical intake, but individuals taking regular prescription medicine should check with a pharmacist before regular use.
• Licorice root, if consumed in large amounts from multiple sources, may affect blood pressure or potassium levels in sensitive individuals — avoid combining with other licorice-containing products without medical advice.
• No specific food interactions are known for normal, occasional use of this product.

• Keep a pack in your bag or desk drawer for convenient use throughout the day.
• Let each drop dissolve fully in the mouth rather than biting or crunching it.
• Store away from heat sources such as a car dashboard or direct window sunlight, as the drops can soften.
• Check the ingredient list first if you or a family member has a known bee-product or herbal allergy.
• Note the expiry date on the pack before use, especially if it has been stored for some time.
• Keep the individually wrapped drops sealed until you are ready to use them.
