Select Form
Corsodyl Mouthwash contains chlorhexidine digluconate, an antibacterial ingredient that helps control plaque and reduce inflammation in the gums. It is commonly recommended for short-term use in the management of gingivitis, following dental procedures, or when regular brushing is difficult.
Corsodyl works by targeting bacteria that contribute to gum disease. It is typically used twice daily for a limited period, as prolonged use may cause temporary tooth staining or taste disturbance.
Both original and alcohol-free formulations are available. Always follow the instructions provided and avoid rinsing with water immediately after use to allow the medicine to work effectively.
