摘要：Patients may effectively be treated for inflammatory conditions of the mouthusing aqueous anti-inflammatory steroids in solutions that can be swished and

expectorated as a mouthwash. Such therapy would allow direct contact of the medicationwith the diseased mucous membranes and would contact areas of the oral cavity thatwould not usually be reached with application of creams, gels, or ointments.

Compositions containing antifungal agents in addition to steroids are particularly useful.

Swishing for three to five minutes, then expectorating the aqueous anti-inflammatory-containing, results in maintenance of contact of the active agents with the oral cavitysurfaces for a longer time than would application of gels containing those agents. Themode of application is simple and is not repugnant to the patient as is the application ofcreams, gels, or ointments.
