About CHLORHEXIDINE+SODIUM MONOFLUORO PHOSPHATE+TRICLOSAN
CHLORHEXIDINE+SODIUM MONOFLUORO PHOSPHATE+TRICLOSAN is a combination medicine used to treat mouth infections, and gingivitis (gum inflammation) and prevents tooth decay (cavities). Mouth problems could occur due to infections caused by bacteria or viruses. Mouth problems involve teeth, gums, tongue, lips, inner cheeks, the roof of the mouth, and under the tongue or teeth. CHLORHEXIDINE+SODIUM MONOFLUORO PHOSPHATE+TRICLOSAN effectively kills the excess growth of harmful microbes present on the intact skin of the mouth and oral cavities.
CHLORHEXIDINE+SODIUM MONOFLUORO PHOSPHATE+TRICLOSAN is a combination of three drugs, namely: Chlorhexidine, Sodium monofluorophosphate and Triclosan. Chlorhexidine kills the infection-causing micro-organisms by binding to the surface of teeth, gums and inner cheeks. Sodium monofluorophosphate prevents cavities/decay caused by bacteria and makes teeth stronger. Triclosan kills micro-organisms by damaging their outer covering. Together, CHLORHEXIDINE+SODIUM MONOFLUORO PHOSPHATE+TRICLOSAN helps in treating mouth infections.
Use CHLORHEXIDINE+SODIUM MONOFLUORO PHOSPHATE+TRICLOSAN as advised. In some cases, you may experience certain side-effects such as mouth irritation, unpleasant taste, staining of teeth and dry mouth. Most of these do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.
Avoid drinking, eating or brushing immediately after using CHLORHEXIDINE+SODIUM MONOFLUORO PHOSPHATE+TRICLOSAN. Consult your doctor before using CHLORHEXIDINE+SODIUM MONOFLUORO PHOSPHATE+TRICLOSAN if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Inform your doctor regarding your health condition and the other medicines you are taking. CHLORHEXIDINE+SODIUM MONOFLUORO PHOSPHATE+TRICLOSAN should not be used in children unless advised by a doctor. Talk to your doctor if your condition does not improve despite using CHLORHEXIDINE+SODIUM MONOFLUORO PHOSPHATE+TRICLOSAN for a few weeks. Do not use any other mouthwashes unless advised by the doctor.
