WARNINGS

Warnings Corsodyl 200 mg/100 ml 150 ml oral mucosal solution - It is important to know that Corsodyl 200 mg/100 ml 150 ml oral mucosal solution:

Do not exceed the indicated doses. Avoid contact with eyes and ears. If the product comes into contact with eyes or ears, wash promptly with water. The product is for external oral use only; do not ingest. If pain, swelling or irritation of the mouth occurs, stop treatment and consult your doctor or dentist. If a rash, swelling or difficulty breathing appears, stop using the product and consult a doctor immediately. Initially, temporary alterations in taste and temporary sensations of numbness, tingling or burning of the tongue may occur. These effects usually decrease with continued use. If they persist, consult your doctor or dentist. The use, especially prolonged, of products for topical use may give rise to sensitization phenomena; in this case, stop treatment and consult your doctor to establish an appropriate therapy. Do not use for prolonged treatments; after a short period of treatment without appreciable results, consult your doctor. Chlorhexidine gluconate may cause superficial staining of the tongue, teeth and some materials used for fillings and dentures. The stains are not permanent and can be largely prevented by reducing the consumption of food colorants, such as tea, coffee and red wine. For teeth and orthodontic material, such staining can be prevented by using a common toothpaste daily or before using Corsodyl solution, oral mucosa spray and dental gel, taking care to rinse the mouth with water between the two treatments, or at another time of the day. These precautions are necessary because chlorhexidine gluconate is incompatible with anionic compounds generally found in common toothpastes. In some cases, the staining can be eliminated by resorting to a professional cleaning. In the case of dentures and anterior fillings that have infiltrated edges and/or rough surfaces, the pigmentation may persist even after a professional cleaning. Professional cleaning may be required following treatments such as jaw fixation or the application of orthodontic appliances that have prevented the implementation of normal mechanical oral hygiene (e.g. brushing).
