Mouth Rinse for Sore Mouth

My doctors gave me a mouth rinse for my sore mouth, throat and tongue - one of my side effects from cytoxan/taxotere. It worked. I was told to swish and gargle 4 -5 times a day. It doesn't taste great, but it sure soothes. Here is goes. You may need a pharmacist, chemists or someone good at conversions to put this into play. You need 1000ml of sterile water, 5g salt, and 6g baking soda. I used a conversion chart on the Internet to convert the grams. Or get your doctor to give you a prescription (I think this is standard mouth rinse for chemo gals) and get it filled. Hope this tip helps someone. Hugs, Marilynn

I used the magic mouthwash also, worked like a charm as I had thrush bad....3cbrca said:If it stop working you might ask your doctor for "Magic Mouthwash" it was a mix of Lydocane and Maloxx...and possibly something else. They mixed it at the Chemo pharmacy. Worked well and coated my mouth...
