Pharmacological Properties
Mentodad Forte Oral Solution combines the soothing, natural properties of menthol and eucalyptus oil, offering a multipurpose effect on the avian respiratory tract.
- Menthol acts as a nasal decongestant, local analgesic, and mild anesthetic, providing immediate relief from irritation and congestion.
- Eucalyptus oil supports anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and expectorant actions, with known efficacy against viruses, fungi, and some Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, S. pneumoniae, and Haemophilus influenzae.
This combination enhances breathing comfort, reduces respiratory stress, and promotes faster recovery in both infectious and non-infectious respiratory conditions.
