Targeted treatment for mucositis

Mucosamin helps to relieve the pain caused by, and treat the symptoms of: oral mucositis, dry mouth and burning mouth syndrome; as well as aid wound healing, and protect the healthy tissue.

Mucositis describes inflammatory and/or ulcerative lesions of the mucosa, which often result from chemotherapeutic agents or radiation.1 It is a common complication of cancer treatments, which can have significant, and sometimes dose-limiting, consequences.

Dry mouth can be a long-term side effect of cancer treatment, which can have a huge impact on a patient’s quality of life.

Mucosamin protects the healthy oral mucosa, whilst providing pain relief and promoting wound healing of painful lesions.

Mucosamin Range

There are two Mucosamin products in the range, which contain sodium hyaluronate and amino acids.

For oral mucositis, Mucosamin Mouthwash soothes and protects the oral mucosa, and Mucosamin Oral Spray provides fast, targeted relief where, and when it is needed. Both of these products help to relieve the symptoms of dry mouth as a result of oral mucositis, whilst providing pain relief and accelerated3 wound healing of oral lesions.

What is Mucosamin?

Mucosamin is a medical device made up of sodium hyaluronate and four synthetic amino acids (glycine, L-proline, L-leucine and L-lysine), to protect, relieve and heal the oral mucosa it is targeting.
