Ricola Sugar Free LemonMint Breath Mints, 0.88-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 12)

This product is great for people with Dry Mouth or Sjogrens Syndrome. It is the only thing we have found in the past 10 years that really works to help to relieve the Dry Mouth Syndrome and tastes good. Our problem is the distribution and price of this product. Six years ago we purchased this product at Trader Joe's and Walmart for 79 cents and 88 cents respectively. They are no longer available in the USA and we almost gave up in finding this item, even though Ricola still produces them in Switzerland. Luckily, by accident I found them on Amazon's web site, but available only from Hong Kong at an inflated price of $2.44 per package. We have tried to contact Ricola about their distribution policy but to no avail. Ricola USA will not give us any satisfaction.

I have used these mints for years to stop my cough when I'm getting over a respiratory infection. They are very effective. They are small and I can have one in my mouth without looking like I'm eating something which is a plus in some situations. They have a nice flavor too.I ordered a 12-pack box of them, since they are hard to find where I live and I don't want to run out. They were delivered in a timely manner.

I love these little Ricola mints. I've loved every flavor they've putout, though peppermint (unfortunately discontinued), lemon mint, and spearmint are my favs. They box is so quiet it can be opened in a classical-music concert. The mints are so small that they can almost lodge to the roof of one's mouth and not interfere with talking. They are soothing to an itchy throat, and they're a great substitute for a richer snack. Please keep making them available!

Bought this item, as it's the only Ricola item on Amazon, and they don't help a cough at all.They're just these stupid mints flavored like cough drops that have 0 medicinal purpose I think.So now I have a huge 12 piece assorted box, obviously made for online sales by Riccola thinking people wanted regular breath mints instead of cough drops, probably to not compete with their regular business.And it's not what I wanted, but whatever.

I purchased these "lemon mints" based on other high ratings. I could not taste the lemon/mint, so threw them out and am searching for a more lemony sugar free product to soothe a dry mouth. I will probably go back to Spry in the meantime, but don't like paying shipping costs which is why I joined Amazon Prime. I'm going to continue my quest, as I know that Amazon will have something else.

I'm glad their sugar free, but wish they didn't have the artificial sweetener They are nice for keeping the mouth moist..

I use these mints as a crutch for my need for a cigarette. I stopped smoking in June 2004 and haven't had a puff since... these mints are tasty and have no sugar! I just pop one in my mouth instead of a cigarette. May not work for everyone but for an OCD type like me, this has worked.

I keep my grandmother stocked with these mints because she has a very dry mouth from medications and these mints have helped her with that condition. She is careful not to use too many per day because they can have a laxative effect. The mints taste good, are chewy and last for quite awhile.
