What Is “龍角散(Ryukakusan)”?

龍角散(Ryukakusan) is one of the cough drops developed by Ryukakusan Company, Limited.
The power version was first made around 1890, then various other types of products such as cough drops, lozenge, tablet and jelly, have been released.
Ryukakusan Cough Drop is one of the most famous products among these series, where many Japanese people “have one when our throat sores.” Not only is it effective to relieve your sore throat but it also has herbal extracts to control the inflammation with a refreshing and modest sweet flavor so it’s easier to taste.
