Mouthwashes and sprays
Mouthwashes and sprays
Benzydamine is an anti-inflammatory agent that is absorbed through the skin and mucosa and has been shown to be effective in reducing pain and inflammation in conditions of the mouth and throat. Side-effects have occasionally been reported and include numbness and stinging of the mouth and throat. Benzydamine spray can be used in children under 12, whereas the mouthwash may only be recommended for children over 12 years of age. Local anaesthetic (e.g. benzocaine and lidocaine) are available in throat sprays.
