Chlorhexamed® 1% gel with applicator - For use in the oral cavity , 9 G

Chlorhexamed® Gel is a surface-active mouth and throat antiseptic (disinfectant) with a broad spectrum of activity and long-term effect against bacterial pathogens and somewhat weaker activity against fungal diseases.

Chlorhexamed Gel is used exclusively in the oral cavity:

• for the prevention and temporary supportive treatment of bacterial inflammation of the gums (gingivitis) and oral mucosa
• to support the healing phase after periodontal surgery (surgery on the periodontium)
• in cases of limited oral hygiene, e.g. as a result of orthodontic (orthodontic) treatment
• as a supplement to fluoride to prevent caries in patients at risk, e.g. patients suffering from dry mouth (xerostomia patients) or patients with dentures

If you do not feel better or even worse after 3 weeks, consult your doctor.

The high number of germs in the oral cavity can quickly lead to inflammatory changes. The antiseptic active ingredient chlorhexidine remains at the site of action for up to 12 hours and combats inflammation caused by bacteria.

For spot application

• For inflammation of the gums and oral mucosa
• To support the healing phase after periodontal surgery

Gel with applicator

How to use

• Adults: Apply the gel 2 to 3 times a day. The amount (approx. 1 - 2.5 cm of gel) depends on the extent of the inflammation and the type of application.
• Type of application: For use in the oral cavity. Brush your teeth at least 5 minutes before using Chlorhexamed Gel and then rinse the oral cavity thoroughly with water (see section 2: "Use of Chlorhexamed Gel together with other medicines"). Apply a sufficient amount of gel after meals and brushing your teeth, e.g. with a cotton bud or, in the case of the 9 g tube, directly to the inflamed areas in the mouth using the applicator. Leave the gel to work for approx. 1 minute. Spit out the gel after this exposure time. Do not swallow the gel. You can also use Chlorhexamed gel like toothpaste. To do this, apply approx. 2 cm of gel to a moistened toothbrush and brush your teeth for at least 1 minute. Then spit out the rest of the gel, but do not rinse with water. Do not swallow the gel.
• Duration of use: If you do not feel better or even worse after 3 weeks, consult your doctor.
