Can The Overuse Of Bactidol Gargle Trigger Cause Mouth Sores?
Hi experienced mouth sores last 01/09/2015 that last two weeks before it totally healed.i used topical ointment and betadine gargle...I continue to use bactidol as my mouth wash so I could prevent mouth sores coming back.,then after a week I had acid reflux then had checkup with an ENT and he gave me pantoprazole for me to take for two weeks..now acid reflux is getting better but I feel that my gums below my front teeth and my inferior lip has sores which actually I don t have...I m still using bactidol....could be possible that over use of bactidol gargle trigger what I feel now.TIA

Welcome to HCM
This is Dr Amit. As per my knowledge Bactidol don't cause any mouth soreness. I think it may be due to regurgitation problem or due to deficiency of multivitamins like vitamin b12 and folic acid. So I will advise you to start multivitamins as well as to treat constipation if you are having.
