“I have allergies to other drugs, lumulobo ang mata ko at hindi ako makahinga pag ibang gamot ang iniinom ko. Mabilis and safe ang Biogesic for me,” points out the 27-year-old star during lunch press conference at Marco Polo Davao’s Polo Bistro.

He doesn’t just endorse the product; he faithfully uses it over the years. As a busy actor with tight schedules and regular tapings, Cruz is often under pressure.

“If I’m stressed, pagod at kung nalilipasan ako ng gutom sumasakit ang ulo ko, I use Biogesic”, the wholesome actor puts his trust in the number one brand prescribed by doctors for headache and fever.

John Lloyd Cruz’s popular Biogesic catchphrase, “Ingat”, propelled the actor’s endorsement career.

“When you use something or a product that you really want or a product that you believe in, parang it’s hard to say no. It’s hard not to accept the offer di ba. Kasi 5 years ago parang kung maalala niyo po, yung Biogesic ang nagsimula ng endorsement career ko. Iyon yung simula ng aking career sa pag-eendorse,” he shares to the press and Davao blogger friends.

Biogesic contains paracetamol, a fever reducer and pain reliever. Because of its Micronized Technology, Biogesic dissolves easier in our bodies that accelerate the relief from headaches and other pains. Biogesic comes in 500 mg tablet form for adults 12 years and older, while Biogesic for Kids comes in 100 mg/mL Suspension (Oral Drops) for infants 0 to 2 years old, 120 mg/5mL Suspension for kids 2 to 6 years old and 250 mg/5mL Suspension for 7 to 12 years old. Biogesic for Kids uses a TasteRite Technology, which is a unique tastemasking system, developed specifically for liquid dosage forms. This technology significantly reduces the bitterness of medicine so that children taste the flavor and not the medicine.
