Chemotherapy and radiation to the head or neck area both can cause mouth sores/ulcers known as oral mucositis. These ulcers present difficult and painful swallowing, thus risking patient appetite and overall nutrition. EVOMUCY Refreshing Mouth Rinse is a pleasant tasting mouth rinse that will take care of your oral health and it can be used alone or with EVOMUCY Spray.

great product for preventing mouth ulcers with chemo treatment
I purchased this for my mother who is undergoing chemotherapy. She started getting some mouth ulcers shortly after her first treatment but then started using this about 1 week after her first treatment. Mouth ulcers are a common side effect of chemo but since she has been using this product, she has NOT HAD ANY mouth ulcers. She uses it twice per day. The only downside to this product is the price. For a six series chemo treatment, she went through about 7 bottles. Before she used the product, I had her take the product information to her Oncologist to ensure it was safe for her. He gave her the o.k. to use it. I ordered 1 bottle from here and then went directly to the company's website and ordered the additional 6 bottles she needed. The company web site was offering a 20% off coupon. Without the discount, the price is identical. The product is definitly worth the cost in the prevention of the mouth ulcers but may be cost prohibitive for many people. If you can afford it, I would definitely recommend this product. I could not find this product anywhere but on Amazon and directly from the company web site. Great product!In addition to the Evomucy, my mother also uses the Biotene products which are alcohol free. I believe it is the combination of using both of these products which has been so beneficial to my mother's prevention of the mouth sores. Good luck with your chemo treatment if you are purchasing this for that reason!
