During my last hospital stay, I had an NG tube in and for those four days, my throat hurt so bad I couldn't speak. They gave me a bottle of Chloroseptic spray and that worked a bit. Cepicol losenges worked too.

Warning on the huge amounts of Vitamin C...they can cause severe intestinal distress if you already have a weak tummy. Just be careful...no more than 1000 mg a day.

Hope your throat feels better soon. That's no fun!
