Buy Colgate Peroxyl Medicated Mouthwash
Colgate Peroxyl Medicated Mouthwash is a medicated mouthwash used to relieve minor mouth and gum germs.
The mint flavoured mouthwash kills germs and prevents them from spreading and causing infection.
How Colgate Peroxyl Medicated Mouthwash works
When the peroxyl in the mouthwash comes into contact with your mouth tissue, oxygen is released in a bubbling action. This provides mechanical cleansing, flushing the mouth debris and helping to relieve oral irritations.
Directions
Always use Colgate Peroxyl Medicated Mouthwash exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor / Chemist4U pharmacist has told you.
Rinse your mouth with 1 capful of peroxyl for 1 minute, then spit out.
Use 3 times daily, after meals and at bedtime.
