Thanks for writing in.
It appears you are having blisters in your mouth and tongue regularly and tihis might be causing you significant discomfort with pain.
Blisters in mouth and tongue can be caused by:
1. Accidental bites to your tongue and inside of cheeks

3. Vitamin B12 or folate deficiency

As for medicines, you could start taking Vitamin B complex capsules, one capsule after food every day in the night for a month and see.
If you feel that there are other problems like fever and the blisters are increasing in number, please visit your doctor immediately.
There are several home remedies, common ones are:
1. Applying baking soda occasionally (3-4 times a day) with a cotton swab to the blisters.
2. Apply cotton swab dipped in ghee occasionally (3-4 times a day) over the blisters.

It is good to know that you are taking Lactovit which is a vitamin preparation. It will take care of any vitamin deficiency but you must also eat enough green leafy vegetables in your food.
Coming to your mouth ulcers, these might be aphthous ulcers and are painful as you have described.
As we, at XXXXXXX do not have the policy of prescribing medicines as a E health practice, any medicine name provided to you is entirely at your own request and please discuss it with a doctor before using it.
For your condition, the most appropriate medication would be CLENORA GEL dental gel (containing tannic acid 5 % w/v, choline salicylate 8 % w/v, cetrimide 0.01 % w/v, lignocaine 2 % w/v). Please apply 3 to 4 times over ulcer in small amounts after consulting a doctor. Also maintenance of oral hygiene is important.
Hope your query is answered.
Wishing you good health.
