Stop Oral Mucositis Before it Starts
Oral mucositis is a painful side effect of some cancer therapies that is under estimated and under treated. By starting Caphosol® (supersaturated calcium phosphate rinse) at the start of cancer therapy you can reduce the occurrence, duration and severity of oral mucositis – mouth sores that can make swallowing and continued therapy challenging or impossible.
Caphosol is the only prescription mouth rinse that is clinically proven to decrease the incidence and severity of oral mucositis.1 More than twice as many patients avoided oral mucositis by using Caphosol in the clinical trial.2 Using Caphosol as directed at the start of cancer therapy will lubricate and clean the mouth, tongue and throat. It loosens tough mucus and prevents build-up in your throat - so you are more comfortable drinking, chewing and speaking.
Control Oral Mucositis … Start Caphosol!
Don’t wait for the onset of symptoms; damage to the lining of the mouth occurs on the first day of cancer therapy. Control oral mucositis – ask your doctor about starting Caphosol!
