I first discovered Olba’s Pastilles when my children were in grade school. They are now aged 48 and 51.
I found them at a local pharmacy when i had a mild sore throat. i don’t think i truly needed them, and i thought they tasted awful.
Then i contracted a horrendous sore throat. I decided to try Olba’s Pastilles again. After all, i had an almost-full box right there in my bathroom cupboard. Not only were the cough drops long-lasting–they were incredibly soothing. Also, I learned that if I took one at night, a little bit was still there in my mouth in the morning–a good night’s sleep with my throat being soothed all night long! I didn’t mind the “awful tasted” one bit! I have come to like them!
Now recently, at the beginning of a local online yoga class, the teacher said she woke up with a sore throat. She didn’t know if she would be able to teach the entire hour and a half. i live 4 blocks away, so i grabbed some Olba’s Pastilles and drove over there to give them to her. Now she is already a devotee and will be a lifelong customer as well.
THANK YOU to whoever figured out this formula and successfully marketed them! May this company stay in business forever!
