Biovanta is a breakthrough new treatment for cold, cough and sore throat. Unlike leading OTC products on the market, Biovanta works by targeting the upper respiratory inflammation that causes the symptoms.

The active ingredient in Biovanta is ultra-low dose acetylsalicylic acid (commonly known as aspirin), but at a very small dosage (6 mg) compared to even baby aspirin, which contains 81mg. Our aspirin is derived from plants using a proprietary technology. Biovanta also contains lactoferrin and lysozyme, which are powerful anti-inflammatory molecules naturally present in mucus, and added to help bolster your body’s natural immunity.

How is aspirin beneficial in such a small dose? And why is it not beneficial in larger doses?

Aspirin can lower prostaglandin levels (a measure of inflammation) but at too high a dose it can disrupt the body’s balance. We found, there is a small therapeutic window in which aspirin is anti-inflammatory: 6 mg per dose. Below this level, the drug would not have a significant affect and above it, it becomes inflammatory. For comparison, a baby aspirin contains 81 mg. Aspirin is known to damage the stomach lining in higher doses. This is probably why it also damages the respiratory lining in higher doses.

How does Biovanta work differently than other OTC Cough/Cold/Sore Throat products?

Upper respiratory infection that causes cough and sore throat is caused by inflammation of the pharynx, the area between your tonsils and your voice box. When respiratory viruses infect the pharynx, they inflame the area. The active ingredients of most leading cough, cold and sore throat products may mask symptoms for a short period of time, but actually worsen inflammation and may therefore exacerbate and prolong the illness. Biovanta is the only cough, cold and sore throat product that safely and effectively addresses the upper respiratory inflammation that causes cold symptoms.
