NeutraSal
NeutraSal is an oral rinse used to treat xerostomia (dry mouth) caused by various conditions, including radiation therapy, Sjogren’s syndrome, and medications that reduce saliva production. NeutraSal contains a supersaturated calcium phosphate solution, which mimics the natural composition of human saliva to restore moisture and promote oral health. It helps in protecting oral tissues, preventing dental complications, and providing relief from dry mouth symptoms.

Comprehensive Drug Guide
How Does NeutraSal Work?
NeutraSal works by creating a supersaturated solution of calcium and phosphate ions when mixed with water. These ions mimic the natural components of saliva, helping to lubricate the mouth, protect oral tissues, and prevent complications such as tooth decay and oral infections. The solution also promotes the healing of oral tissues and maintains the pH balance in the mouth.
