Aquoral - Long-lasting lipid-based dry mouth oral spray

Dry mouth, also known as xerostomia, is a common condition that can lead to a range of uncomfortable and potentially serious health problems.

When the mouth lacks sufficient saliva, it can become dry and subsequently uncomfortable, leading to issues such as mouth sores, irritated soft tissue and gums, and an increased risk of tooth decay. In addition, dry mouth can also cause bad breath and make it difficult to speak, or swallow comfortably.

Medications (such as anti-depressants, anti-histamines, antihypertensives, antipsychotics, etc), use of CPAP machine, mouth breathing, Sjogren's disease, head & neck cancer treatment, use of medical marijuana, uncontrolled diabetes, neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's/Parkinson's/ALS, and many more conditions and/or their treatments could bring about less saliva production and xerostomia. 

Aquoral is a lipid-based oral spray for dry mouth that is prescription strength. It uses Oxidized Glycerol Triesters (OGT) to form a lipid-based barrier that coats the soft tissue that it comes in contact with in the mouth. The OGT is produced through a process of controlled oxidation of corn oil, a patented technology exclusive to Aquoral.

Aquoral prevents moisture loss, and provides sustained relief of up to 4-6 hours. It also has an additive effect over time, similar to applying hand lotion to dry skin, where the condition slightly improves over time with its use. 

Since this product is lipid-based (and not water-based), it stays for longer periods of time in the mouth; so the relief tends to be longer lasting than in water-based rinses for example. It does have a mild flavor which is palatable to most individuals. 

Each order has two 10 ml canisters in it. Shake gently. Apply one dose (2 sprays) into the mouth 3 to 4 times a day. Spread the product onto inflamed and/or dry areas of the mouth with the tongue. Pump may require priming for initial use. This could last up to 6 months depending on the frequency of use. 

Aquoral via moistening the mouth, helps with chewing, swallowing, and speaking. And since the delivery of it is through small sprays, it can be taken anywhere with the individual and applied easily. 

Read package insert carefully before using this spray. Avoid contact with eyes. Flush eyes with water if accidental introduction into eyes should occur.

Aquoral is contraindicated for any patient with a known history of hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients (Oxidized glycerol triesters (TGO), silicon dioxide, aspartame, and artificial flavoring).

Aquoral complements SalivaMax (which is a water-based treatment for dry-mouth). To get best of both worlds, SalivaMax would be used first and then Aquoral to lock in the moisture.
