Corsodyl AF Mint Mouthwash 300ml

[3552460]

Price: only £4.89 (inc VAT)

Product Details

Corsodyl Alcohol Free mouthwash is an antibacterial solution which inhibits the formation of dental plaque and is used to

Treat and prevent gingivitis (gum disease which usual sign is gums that bleed when brushed)
Promote gum healing after dental surgery or treatment
control mouth ulcers
maintain mouth hygiene
manage oral thrush
manage denture sore mouth

Directions

Thoroughly rinse the mouth for about one minute with 10 ml twice daily. In the dental surgery the patient should be instructed to rinse the mouth for one minute prior to treatment. For the treatment of gingivitis a course of about one month is advisable although some variation in response is to be expected. In the case of mouth ulcers and oral thrush infections treatment should be continued for 48 hours after clinical resolution. For the treatment of denture sore mouth the dentures should be cleansed and soaked in Corsodyl mouthwash for fifteen minutes twice daily.

Ingredients

Chlorhexidine Digluconate 0.2% w/v equivalent to Chlorhexidine Digluconate Solution Ph Eur 1.0% v/v.

Side Effects

Discoloration: A superficial discoloration of the tongue may occur. This disappears after treatment is discontinued. Discoloration of the teeth may also occur. This stain is not permanent and can largely be prevented by brushing with a conventional toothpaste daily before using the mouthwash or, in the case of dentures, cleaning with a conventional denture cleanser. However, in certain cases a professional prophylaxis (scaling and polishing) may be required to remove this stain completely. Stained tooth-coloured restorations with poor margins or rough surfaces which are not adequately cleaned by professional prophylaxis may require replacement. Similarly where normal toothbrushing is not possible, for example with intermaxillary fixation, or with extensive orthodontic appliances, scaling and polishing may also be required once the underlying condition has been resolved.

Taste: Transient disturbance of taste sensation and a burning sensation of the tongue may occur on initial use of the mouthwash. These effects usually diminish with continued use.

Oral desquamation: In cases where oral desquamation occurs dilution of the mouthwash with an equal volume of tap water, freshly mixed, will often allow continued use of the mouthwash.

Parotid gland swelling: Very occasionally, swelling of the parotid glands during the use of chlorhexidine mouthrinses has been reported. In all cases spontaneous resolution has occurred on discontinuing treatment.

Irritative skin reactions: Irritative skin reactions to chlorhexidine preparations can occasionally occur.

Generalised reactions: Allergic reactions, hypersensitivity & anaphylaxis to chlorhexidine have also been reported but are extremely rare.

Warnings

Corsodyl is contraindicated for patients who have previously shown a hypersensitivity reaction to chlorhexidine. However, such reactions are extremely rare.
For oral (external) use only - keep out of the eyes and ears.

If the mouthwash comes into contact with the eyes, wash out promptly and thoroughly with water.
