Benefits
In mouth infection
Whenever there is an overgrowth of microorganisms in our mouth, that are otherwise normally present, it can lead to unpleasant symptoms suggestive of mouth infection. These symptoms include swollen gums, unpleasant taste changes, and mouth sores. Rexidin Plus Mouth Wash kills and prevents the growth of these bacteria, thereby relieving these symptoms. This helps in maintaining good oral hygiene and makes it easier for you to go about your daily life activities. Continue using this drug as advised by the doctor to get the maximum benefits.
How it works
Rexidin Plus Mouth Wash is a combination of three medicines: Chlorhexidine Gluconate, Sodium Monofluorophosphate and Triclosan. Chlorhexidine Gluconate is an antiseptic. It works by binding to the surface of teeth, inner cheeks and gums. This kills the infectious microorganisms that cause gum disease, ulcers and other mouth infections. Sodium Monofluorophosphate works by making the teeth stronger and preventing decay (cavity) caused by bacteria. Triclosan also kills the harmful bacteria and fungi by attacking their outer covering.
How to use
Check the label before use. Take the mouthwash in the quantity as advised by your doctor and put it in your mouth. Swish for 30 seconds to 1 minute and spit it. Do not swallow. Avoid eating, drinking, or smoking for at least 30 minutes after rinsing.
