Description
Overview of the medicine
Clovcare 3 gm Mouthwash is an oral hygiene product formulated with Clove oil, known for its natural antiseptic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory properties. It is used to maintain oral hygiene, relieve minor oral pain, inflammation, and bad breath.
Uses & Indications
Dosage
Adults
Rinse with 10-15 ml (or as directed by physician/dentist) for 30-60 seconds, 2-3 times daily, or as needed. Do not swallow.
Elderly
Same as adults, with caution for swallowing reflex.
Renal_impairment
No specific dosage adjustment required as systemic absorption is minimal.
How to Take
For oral use only. Rinse the mouth thoroughly with the specified amount of mouthwash for 30-60 seconds, then spit out. Do not swallow. Do not eat or drink for at least 30 minutes after use.
Mechanism of Action
Clove oil's primary active compound, Eugenol, exerts its action by modulating nerve excitability, providing local anesthetic effects. It also possesses broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties by disrupting bacterial cell membranes and anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis.
Pharmacokinetics
Onset
Rapid onset of local anesthetic and antiseptic action within minutes.
Excretion
Metabolites primarily excreted via urine.
Half life
Not applicable for local action; systemic half-life of eugenol is short if absorbed.
Absorption
Minimal systemic absorption when used as a mouthwash; primarily acts locally on oral tissues.
Metabolism
Any systemically absorbed eugenol is rapidly metabolized in the liver.
Side Effects
Contraindications
- Hypersensitivity to Eugenol, clove oil, or any other component of the mouthwash
- Children under 6 years of age (due to risk of swallowing)
Drug Interactions
Anticoagulants (e.g., Warfarin)
Theoretical risk of increased bleeding if significant systemic absorption occurs, due to Eugenol's antiplatelet effects. However, highly unlikely with mouthwash use.
Storage
Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place. Protect from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.
Overdose
Accidental ingestion of large quantities may cause gastrointestinal irritation (nausea, vomiting), abdominal pain, or, in severe cases, central nervous system depression. Seek immediate medical attention.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Consult a healthcare professional before use during pregnancy or lactation. While systemic absorption is minimal, data on safety in these populations is limited.
