PELAFORCE Oral Drops

PELAFORCE Oral Drops provide PELAFORCE™ Pelargonium sidoides root extract in an easy-to-use liquid preparation. Afraceuticals specifically identifies oral drops as one of the final-product applications for its PELAFORCE™ extract.

Pelargonium sidoides, commonly known as African Geranium, has a longstanding history of medicinal use for respiratory health. PELAFORCE™ is Afraceuticals’ flagship medicinal botanical powder extract derived from Pelargonium sidoides root. The manufacturer positions the extract for cough, sinus, cold and flu relief and notes its use as both a herbal medicine and food supplement.

Afraceuticals describes four principal areas of activity for its Pelargonium sidoides extract: antiviral, antibacterial, immune-modulating and mucolytic/expectorant activity. In a consumer wellness context, these properties support respiratory comfort, natural immune defence and healthy mucus clearance.

The root extract also contains a diverse range of naturally occurring phytochemicals, including polyphenols, coumarins, anthocyanins and flavonoids. Afraceuticals specifically identifies umckalin, quercetin, catechin and gallocatechin among the compounds found in Pelargonium sidoides.
