Can I use amosan between uses of the magic mouth wash?

Thank you for your question!

You can try using Amosan, but don't expect miracles. An alcohol-free mouthwash would be equivalent

If your symptoms prevent you from eating a lot, it is important to mention it to your treatment team. The severity of this side effect as you report it will direct future chemo treatments.

I hope this helps, and I am available if you have any further questions!

For now, eat foods that are not too hard, spicy or acidic. Also, I suggest that you continue to brush your teeth at least 2x/day to avoid bacterial growth as much as possible. Use a toothbrush with soft or very soft bristles

Flossing is also very important, at least once a day

In pharmacies, we can also suggest a mixture called "pink lady": half and half Gaviscon or Maalox liquid with 2% viscous lidocaine (available at the back of the pharmacy counter), for gargling 3 times a day. However, the magic mouthwash you have most likely has very similar ingredients

If the situation does not improve, you should talk to your treatment team

Sincerely

Tom Samaha, Pharmacist
