4.1 Therapeutic indications
Corsodyl Mouthwash is an antimicrobial solution which inhibits the
formation of dental plaque.
It is indicated as an aid in the treatment and prevention of
gingivitis and in the maintenance of oral
hygiene, particularly in situations where tooth brushing cannot be
adequately employed (e.g. following
oral surgery, in mentally or physically handicapped patients).
Also for use in a post-peridontal surgery or treatment* regimen to
promote gingival healing.
*NB: Use as part of a post-periodontal treatment regimen has only been
adequately studied over the short
term and following standard root surface instrumentation.
It is useful in the management of aphthous ulceration and oral
candidal infections (eg denture stomatitis
and thrush).
4.2 Posology and method of administration
Adults:
Thoroughly rinse the mouth for about one minute with 10 ml twice
daily. Spit out after use. 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 aphthous ulceration and
oral candidal infections treatment
should be continued for 48 hours after clinical resolution. For the
treatment of dental stomatitis the
dentures should be cleansed and soaked in Corsodyl mouthwash for
fifteen minutes twice daily.
Do not exceed the stated dose.
Children and the Elderly:
The normal adult dose is appropriate for elderly patients and children
of 12 years and over unless
otherwise recommended by the dentist or t
