Chlorhexamed® Fluid 0.1% - solution for use in the oral cavity, 200 ML

Chlorhexamed® Fluid is a surfactant-based oral and throat antiseptic (disinfectant) with a broad spectrum of activity and long-lasting effect against bacterial pathogens, and slightly weaker activity against fungal infections.

Rinsing with Chlorhexamed Fluid effectively treats bacterial infections in the mouth and throat. 

Chlorhexamed Fluid is used to treat and prevent bacterial infections in the mouth and throat and is indicated:

• to reduce and prevent bacterial dental plaque
• for the treatment of mild to purulent gum inflammation (gingivitis)
• for the treatment or prevention of infectious diseases of the periodontium and their complications (periodontal diseases) 
• for tonsillitis, angina, lateral angina and inflammation of the pharyngeal mucosa (pharyngitis)
• for injuries and before and after surgical procedures in the mouth and throat (e.g. before and after tonsil operations and dental surgery), as Chlorhexamed Fluid supports the healing process 
• for aphthous ulcers (painful inflamed areas of the mucous membrane of the gums, oral cavity or tongue), inflammation of the oral mucosa such as stomatitis (particularly under dentures) and inflammation of the tongue (glossitis). In cases of severe fungal infection of the oral mucosa (thrush), additional treatment with specialised antifungal agents may occasionally be required
• to eliminate bad breath when normal oral hygiene is not possible and the bad breath is not caused by a stomach condition
• for oral hygiene when normal oral hygiene (brushing teeth) is not possible, e.g. in cases of severe systemic illness and in patients in intensive care

Specific areas of application in dental practice: 

• To reduce the number of bacteria in the patient’s oral cavity by using the product prior to treatment to protect the treating dentist; 
• in cases of an infected tooth socket following tooth extraction. 

If you do not feel any better, or if your condition worsens, after 3 weeks, contact your doctor.

Liquid

Directions for use

• Adults: Use the liquid twice daily, preferably in the morning and evening after meals. 
• Method of use: For use in the mouth. For each use, fill the measuring cap to the mark (15 ml) and swish it around in your mouth for 1 minute (thoroughly moving it between your teeth) or gargle it in your throat. Spit out afterwards – do not swallow or rinse out afterwards. In the case of inflammation of the oral mucosa caused by dentures, the dentures should be soaked in Chlorhexamed Fluid for 15 to 20 minutes at least twice daily after cleaning. Also rinse the mouth as described above. Teeth should be brushed at least 5 minutes before using Chlorhexamed Fluid, and the mouth should then be rinsed thoroughly with water (see Section 2: ‘Use of Chlorhexamed Fluid with other medicines’). Particularly when treating inflammatory diseases of the periodontium (periodontal diseases), it is important to clean the teeth thoroughly before each mouthwash to ensure better adhesion of Chlorhexamed Fluid to the tooth surface and thus effective inhibition of plaque growth (plaque). In cases requiring intensive care or for patients with limited manual dexterity, where active mouth rinsing is not possible, plaque can be removed by brushing with Chlorhexamed Fluid. The solution is ready for use and should therefore be used undiluted.
• Duration of use: If you do not feel any better, or if your condition worsens, after 3 weeks, consult your doctor.
