About Candid Mouth Gel
Candid Mouth Gel is a combination medicine primarily used to treat mouth ulcers. Mouth ulcers, also known as canker sores, are small, painful lesions that develop in the mouth or at the base of the gums. These can make you uncomfortable while eating, drinking, and talking.
Candid Mouth Gel contains Choline salicylate and lidocaine. Choline salicylate works by blocking the action of chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation. Lidocaine blocks the pain signals from the nerves to the brain, thereby helping decrease the pain sensations.
Use Candid Mouth Gel as advised by the doctor. If Candid Mouth Gel comes in contact with eyes, rinse with water immediately. You are advised to use Candid Mouth Gel for as long as your doctor has suggested it for you, depending on your medical condition.
Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not use Candid Mouth Gel in more than suggested doses or on a large area of skin for a longer duration, as it may cause adverse effects. Do not use Candid Mouth Gel for treating mouth ulcers in children unless suggested by the doctor.
