Eludril Oral Hygiene Mouthwash 250ml

How does it work?

This mouthwash contains two active ingredients, chlorhexidine gluconate and chlorbutanol hemihydrate.

Chlorhexidine is an antiseptic and disinfectant agent, which is active against various bacteria, viruses, bacterial spores and fungi. It kills the micro-organisms associated with various mouth and throat infections. These include the Candida albicans fungi that causes thrush infection in the mouth, and bacteria that may infect mouth ulcers.

Chlorhexidine has also been shown to prevent the formation and build up of plaque on teeth, which helps prevent inflammation of the gums (gingivitis).

Chlorbutanol is also an antiseptic agent that kills bacteria and fungi.

The combination of these two agents used as a mouthwash also provides a mechanical cleaning action in the mouth.
