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.
Quick Tips
Do not add water to the oral rinse. Do not rinse your mouth with water or other mouthwashes right after using Rexidin Plus Mouth Wash. Avoid eating, drinking, or brushing your teeth just after using this medication. Do not use Rexidin Plus Mouth Wash if you have deep oral ulcers or throat infection. Stop using this medicine and inform your doctor if any irritation occurs. Along with using Rexidin Plus Mouth Wash, maintain good oral hygiene by brushing your teeth twice daily with a soft bristle brush. Have regular dental checkups at intervals recommended by your dentist (this is normally at least once a year).
