How Xyon-C Mouthwash works

Chlorhexidine is a broad-spectrum antiseptic that binds to oral tissues and disrupts bacterial cell membranes, reducing plaque-forming bacteria. Added Vitamin C may support gum healing and reduces oxidative stress in inflamed oral tissues.

How to take Xyon-C Mouthwash

Use as a mouthwash. Rinse with 10–15 mL undiluted for 30–60 seconds and spit out, usually 2 times daily or as directed by dentist/doctor. Do not swallow. Avoid eating/drinking for 30 minutes after use; use after brushing (wait ~5–10 min after toothpaste to reduce inactivation).

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine is unlikely from skin use, but swallowing an antiseptic is dangerous and needs immediate medical attention. It can cause vomiting, stomach pain and, with some minerals, damage over the longer term. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
