“Hey, man, is that Freedom Rock? Well turn it up, man!”

Retsyn. Did any of us really believe in this marketing nonsense? Did any of us even know it wasn’t spelled Retzin? Did any of us even care?

From wikipedia.org:

Retsyn is a Warner-Lambert Company trademark for the active ingredient in Certs, Cool Mint Drops, and Certs Power Mints. Retsyn consists of a combination of copper gluconate and hydrogenated cottonseed oil.

According to a Pfizer FAQ Page, it is Retsyn, in addition to the flavor, which is responsible for the efficacy of CERTS against breath odors. The hydrogenated vegetable oil and the copper gluconate absorb odors in the mouth.
