Product description

Difflam Oral Rinse is an oral medicine used for short-term relief of pain and inflammation affecting the mouth or throat, such as ulcers, sore gums, sore throat or discomfort after dental treatment. It is a medicine for targeted relief, not a general mouthwash for daily freshness.

Best for

• Short-term mouth or throat soreness where this medicine is suitable
• Mouth ulcers, sore gums or discomfort after dental work
• Patients who need targeted oral pain and inflammation relief rather than cosmetic oral care

• Excipients and flavouring ingredients as listed in the patient information leaflet
• Check suitability if you have allergies, asthma, NSAID sensitivity or are using other medicines

How to use

1. Read the patient information leaflet before use
2. Rinse or gargle as directed on the pack and spit out unless the leaflet says otherwise
3. Do not use for longer than the labelled period unless advised by a healthcare professional

When to ask for advice
