Overview Iodolan 1% Gargle

This 1% Iodolan mouthwash solution acts as an antiseptic and disinfectant, targeting oral bacteria responsible for mouth infections. It also soothes dry mouths and sore throats. Follow your physician's instructions precisely regarding dosage and duration; avoid swallowing. Complete the prescribed treatment, even with symptom improvement. Refrain from eating, drinking, or smoking for at least half an hour post-use. Do not exceed the recommended treatment period (2-4 weeks) and consult your doctor if your condition persists. If the taste is strong, dilute an equal amount of mouthwash with warm water before use. Gently swish the diluted solution for a brief period, then expectorate. A 30-second rinse effectively eliminates oral and throat pathogens. Repeat every 2-4 hours, or as your dentist advises. Generally well-tolerated, significant side effects are uncommon.
