Buglac Gargle

Buglac Gargle is an antiseptic and disinfectant agent that is used as a mouthwash to kill germs that cause infections of the mouth. It also relieves dryness of the mouth and sore throat.

Take Buglac Gargle in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Make sure not to swallow the medication. Do not stop using it until you have finished the complete course, even when you feel better. You must have to avoid eating, drinking, or smoking for at least 30 minutes after using it. Do not use it for longer than your doctor has told you to and let him or her know if your condition does not improve after 2 to 4 weeks of treatment.

Pour gargle and mouthwash into the cup and dilute it with an equal amount of warm water if the taste is an issue. Swish the solution for a short time in the mouth and spit it out. Thirty-second gargle kills the germs in the mouth or throat. Repeat this every two to four hours or as directed by your dentist.

Treatment of Mouth infection
Whenever there is an overgrowth of microorganisms in our mouth, that are otherwise normally present, it can lead to unpleasant symptoms suggestive of mouth infection. These symptoms include bad breath, swollen gums, unpleasant taste changes, sensitivity of teeth to hot or cold food/liquid etc. Buglac Gargle kills and prevents growth of these bacteria, thereby relieving these symptoms. This helps in maintaining good oral hygiene.

Poor oral hygiene can be extremely embarrassing and can affect your social life. This medicine helps restore your self confidence and makes it easier for you to go about your daily activities. Continue using it as advised by the doctor to get maximum benefit.

Treatment of Sore throat
Sore throat refers to pain and discomfort in the throat that is usually seen in bacterial or viral infections. Buglac Gargle is generally very safe, works quite quickly and will reduce the pain and discomfort that might be caused by sore throat. It kills the microorganisms causing the infection in the throat and makes you feel better. This helps to soothe the irritated throat and speeds up the recovery process. You may also drink warm water/drinks such as ginger tea, avoid cold foods and take a steam bath for additional relief.

Treatment and prevention of Wound infection
Buglac Gargle is a versatile antiseptic that is used for the treatment and prevention of infection. Buglac Gargle kills and prevents the growth of infection-causing microbes, thereby preventing abrasions, cuts, and wounds, or any break in the skin from getting infected. The antiseptic effect is caused due to the slow release of iodine. Keep the affected area clean and use the medicine as prescribed by your doctor.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
