Pharmacology

Benzydamine belongs to a family of medicines known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). They work to reduce pain and inflammation in the body by reducing the production of hormone-like substances that promote the inflammatory response. Benzydamine does not treat the underlying cause of the inflammation, however, and should not be used for extended periods of time without medical advice. Benzydamine also possesses local anaesthetic activity to further enhance pain relief.

Chlorhexidine is an antiseptic agent that kills or prevents the growth of a wide range of bacteria that may be involved in causing pain and inflammation in conditions of the mouth and throat. Chlorhexidine also helps to treat and prevent gingivitis and reduces the accumulation of dental plaque.
