Kruidvat Amylmetacresol Plus Dichloorbenzylalcohol lozenges

Kruidvat brand lozenges are a private-label health product developed for the Dutch drugstore chain Kruidvat. This specific product, containing active ingredients Amylmetacresol and 2,4-Dichlorobenzyl alcohol, is formulated as a sore throat remedy (honing & citroen/honey & lemon flavour) for the Benelux market.

Historically, Kruidvat originated in the Netherlands in 1975 under the Edah company. However, it underwent significant changes in ownership over the decades. Today, the brand is part of a massive global retail network. While the brand is quintessentially Dutch in many consumers' eyes, it is actually owned by a multinational conglomerate based in Asia.

Manufacturing for Kruidvat's private-label medicinal products often takes place across various pharmaceutical manufacturing sites throughout Europe and sometimes Asia, depending on the specific supplier contracts and regulatory requirements for over-the-counter medications. As a result, the manufacturing country is classified as multiple locations rather than a single fixed site.
