Your voice plays an integral part in your everyday activities. However, it is inevitable that your lifestyle could take its toll on your voice, like when you get sore throat.
Sore throat is normally caused by viruses or bacteria. That’s why sometimes beyond just irritation or itchiness, you feel pain in swallowing and swelling.
Several other things can cause sore throat. In a tropical country like the Philippines, there are different factors that can take a toll on your system. Changes in temperature and weather can affect your throat. Other factors of sore throat are also airborne such as outdoor pollution, allergens in the air, smoking cigarettes, and second-hand smoking. Excessive and forceful usage of your voice can also cause muscle strain.   


Presenting Kamillosan M Spray – a clinically proven all-natural sore throat spray solution. It contains 8 active ingredients that effectively soothe and relieve sore throat.
These 8 ingredients (Chamomile extract, Methyl salicylate, Peppermint oil, Sage oil, Anise oil, dwarf pine needle oil, Bergamot oil, Cineol) – work together in fighting and treating sore throat. Its main ingredient, Chamomile, acts as an anti-inflammatory agent to reduce pain, swelling, and redness. Combined with the anti-bacterial effects of essential oils such as Peppermint, Sage, and Bergamot, Kamillosan M is highly suited for sore throat relief.



The natural ingredients also lend to the minty fresh sweet aftertaste, unlike the other medicinal throat sprays in the market today.
Kamillosan M Spray is from A. Menarini Philippines, which belongs to one of the largest Italian biopharmaecutical groups, Menarini.
Last April 21, 2017, Kamillosan launched its latest campaign with a new endorser at Discovery Primera. This was also the venue where Kamillosan launched its Speak Up advocacy – in the hopes of making the brand mean more to the market beyond just providing relief from sore throat.
While waiting for the event to start, guests were requested to participate in the Kamillosan video booth, and record their answers to the question, “How do you encourage people with the power of your voice?” These videos were then shown at the end of the program and uploaded on the brand’s official Facebook page, Kamillosan PH.
The actual event kicked off with a brief welcome and introduction from A. Menarini Philippines’ General Manager, Ninia Torres. This was followed by an overview on sore throat by Dra. Clarissa Fortuna, supported by a product discussion from the brand’s medical manager, Dr. Gabby Santos.
But the voice that got everyone speaking up was Kamillosan’s newest endorser – Sarah Geronimo. She charmed everyone in her grand entrance as she powerfully sang and captured hearts, as she always does. Sarah also shared her own singing journey which highlighted how she learned to be an inspiration and motivation to others by power of voice and positivity – making her the perfect fit for Kamillosan’s Speak Up campaign.
“The essence of our campaign is to really encourage people to speak up with the help of Kamillosan. Just like Sarah, we hope to inspire people to pursue their passion without any hindrance along the way, especially sore throat,” shared Patty Nuqui, Marketing Director of Kamillosan.
“We are truly proud and delighted to have this opportunity to not just introduce a product we support and believe in, but to have Kamillosan take the higher ground and mean more to people than just a product for sore throat,” A. Menarini Philippines’ General Manager, Ninia Torres, added.
The event ended on a high note, with some of the guests creating cheers that captured the essence of Kamillosan and the Speak Up campaign.

This year is shaping up to be a big one for anemia-fighting iron supplement, Sangobion IRON+ (Ferrous gluconate+vitamins & minerals).
After successful years of helping Filipinos overcome iron deficiency
anemia, it recently launched another large-scale campaign featuring its long-time ambassador, Sarah Geronimo. Held at the SM Mall of Asia
Music Hall, this record-breaking blood health event, back-to-back with a star-studded concert, was rightfully called “Sulong Dugong Pinoy Blood Health Event.”

The event was an avenue for Filipinos from all over to have their blood checked, in line with Sangobion’s goal of transforming the nation with healthy blood, one person at a time.

Sangobion Sulong Dugong Pinoy is part of Merck Consumer Health’s (maker of Sangobion) WE100 initiative. This aims to help prepare society for a new era of people who live to a hundred years. It is rooted on the belief that living more years should also mean living a life that is healthy and fulfilling. This is the vision for all generations. By offering quality products, providing activities, and
holding events such as Sulong Dugong Pinoy, Merck strives to measure up to the WE100 objective of helping society live 100 years.


In the words of Ming Arroyo-Cunanan, Merck Head of Marketing, “The goal is to really push for the importance of having healthy, anemia-free blood. We believe that if every Filipino realizes the power of having healthy blood, then we will be able to take significant steps toward the rise of our nation.”

The MOA Music Hall was jam-packed with attendees of all ages wanting to get their blood checked. Sangobion conducted blood screenings to help people determine if they are at risk of anemia and also gave free consultations. With the support of the Philippine Red Cross, all was well and properly implemented. Pre-show activities included both educational and fun games that everyone enjoyed. Hosted by the lovely Jaimie Fournier, these really got the crowd pumped.


The main event was a visually satisfying concert that filled the hall with great music. Squeals and shrieks conquered the venue as pop newcomers The Juans opened the show. Legendary Pinoy rock band The Dawn took the stage after, performing their hits plus a cover of U2’s Beautiful Day. Of course, it would not have been a trademark The Dawn performance without the crowd favorite, “Salamat” as part of their set.



It was no surprise that headliner Sarah Geronimo slayed her performance, singing and grooving to her songs in true pop superstar fashion. The excited audience also cheered at the premiere of the Sangobion Sulong Dugong Pinoy Video, and the Pop star Princess’ live rendition of the campaign anthem.

The incredible night ended with a pledge to fight anemia. Sarah thanked everyone at the event and talked about the campaign and its impact on her. “Sulong Dugong Pinoy taught me that change really begins within each of us. Iba po talaga kapag healthy ang blood, mas marami kang pwedeng magawa at nare-realize mo ang potential mo na makatulong sa pagsulong nating lahat.”

Leaving the audience inspired and genuinely empowered, the Sangobion Sulong Dugong Pinoy Blood Health Event has surely sparked a positive change not only in the blood of each individual, but in the Filipino spirit.
