Benefits of Lexanox Plus Oral Paste

In Mouth ulcers

Mouth ulcers are small painful sores on inner lips, gums, tongue, roof of the mouth or throat that may interfere with eating, drinking and even talking. Lexanox Plus Oral Paste Sugar Free blocks the release of those chemicals that are responsible for pain sensation and inflammation. It forms a coating over the sores and therefore, provides relief from pain, discomfort and symptoms of inflammation such as redness, swelling or burning sensation due to mouth ulcers. This makes it easier for you to go about your daily activities. Continue using it as advised by the doctor to get maximum benefit.

How Lexanox Plus Oral Paste works

Lexanox Plus Oral Paste Sugar Free is an anti-aphthous ulcer medication.
