The Rexidin-M Forte Gel is a prescription combination medication used for the treatment of mouth ulcers, gum inflammation (gingivitis), and other oral infections. It provides relief from pain and discomfort by combining antiseptic, antibiotic, and local anesthetic properties.
Key Ingredients
The gel contains three active ingredients that work together to treat oral conditions:
- Lidocaine / Lignocaine (2% w/w): A local anesthetic that forms a protective coating over sores and blocks pain signals to the brain, providing pain relief.
- Chlorhexidine Gluconate (1% w/w): An antiseptic and disinfectant that cleans the ulcer surface and kills a broad spectrum of bacteria to prevent infection.
- Metronidazole (1% w/w): An antibiotic that kills harmful bacteria and other microorganisms by damaging their DNA, preventing their growth and spread.
Uses and Benefits
- Mouth Ulcers and Sores: Provides relief from pain and discomfort associated with painful sores inside the mouth, lips, gums, and tongue.
- Gum Health: Effective in treating and preventing gum diseases like gingivitis and periodontitis by reducing inflammation and controlling bacterial growth.
- Oral Infections: Manages various oral infections, including stomatitis (inflammation of the mouth lining) and can be used as an adjunct to antibiotic therapy in severe cases.
- Post-Surgical Care: Useful for minimizing discomfort and promoting healing in the mouth after dental procedures.
Important Precautions
- Prescription Required: This is a prescription medication and should be used strictly as advised by a doctor or dentist.
- External Use Only: It is for topical use inside the mouth only and should not be swallowed. If accidentally swallowed, seek immediate medical attention.
- Application Instructions:
- Apply a small amount of gel with a clean finger or cotton swab directly to the affected area 2-3 times daily.
- Avoid eating, drinking, or rinsing your mouth for at least 30 minutes after application to ensure maximum effectiveness.
- For optimal results, apply after brushing and flossing your teeth.
- Staining of Teeth: The gel may cause temporary staining of the teeth and tongue; this can be minimized by regular brushing and flossing and avoiding staining foods/drinks like tea, coffee, and red wine.
Potential Side Effects
Most side effects are generally mild and temporary:
- Metallic or bitter taste in the mouth.
- Burning, irritation, itching, or redness at the application site.
