Moko Glycerine Borax Mouthwash & Oral Paint 50ml
Moko Glycerine Borax is a trusted pharmaceutical solution in Nigeria, used for oral hygiene and treating minor mouth irritations. Manufactured by New Healthway Company Limited, it combines the antiseptic properties of Borax with the soothing, humectant effects of Glycerin.
What is Moko Glycerine Borax Used For?
This versatile oral paint is primarily used to treat:
- Mouth Ulcers & Sores: Provides quick relief from pain and inflammation.
- Oral Thrush (Candidiasis): Effective against fungal infections in the mouth, including milk residue on infants' tongues.
- Dry Mouth (Xerostomia): The glycerin base acts as a humectant to lubricate and moisten the oral cavity.
- Gingivitis & Glossitis: Soothes inflamed gums and tongue.
How to Use Moko Glycerine Borax for Babies and Adults
For effective results, the solution should be used sparingly:
- For Babies (Oral Paint): Wrap a clean, soft cloth or cotton swab around your finger, dip it into the solution, and gently wipe the baby's tongue and gums to treat thrush or remove coating.
- For Adults (Mouthwash/Gargle): Apply directly to ulcers using a cotton bud or use as a rinse for broader inflammation.
- Important: Do not eat or drink for at least 30 minutes after application. Use sparingly to avoid ingestion.
