Using Caphosol
Caphosol (supersaturated calcium phosphate rinse) is very
easy to use and it is the only prescription mouth rinse that is
clinically proven to decrease the incidence, duration and severity
of oral mucositis.15 Don't wait for the onset of
symptoms to start Caphosol; damage to the lining of the mouth
occurs on the first day of cancer therapy. Control oral mucositis
by starting Caphosol on the first day of cancer treatment.
Just follow these simple instructions:
For oral mucositis you should use Caphosol starting day 1 of
cancer treatment for 4 times per day - up to 10 times per day if
the pain gets worse.
Mix one blue and one clear ampule in a clean glass. Swish the
mouth thoroughly for 1 min with ½ of the solution
and spit out. Repeat with the remaining ½ of the solution for
another full minute and spit out. The total
rinsing time is 2 full minutes. Continue using Caphosol for the
duration of your cancer treatment.
For treatment of dry mouth (xerostomia) rinse with Caphosol 2-10
times per day or as instructed by physician.
Use Caphosol immediately after mixing the ampules.
NOTE: You should avoid using other mouth
rinses, eating and drinking for at least 15 minutes after using
Caphosol.
You can use Caphosol in addition to other treatments as there
are no known interactions with other therapies. Reported side
effects with Caphosol have been rare and generally mild. No adverse
effects are expected if Caphosol is swallowed accidentally.
