Do you have names of commercially available zinc lozenges that are not

Chris Masterjohn surveyed the ingredients lists of available lozenges
recently, and found only one that was free from suspicion: "Enhanced
Zinc Lozenges" from LEF:

They are, however, currently sold out because of the coronavirus
scare, even though they probably won't help with it.

cautious: the presence of something that binds zinc on the list of
ingredients doesn't necessarily mean there's enough of it to cause
problems.)
