Brief Summary
CelAgace™ OraRinse (silver citrate complex and acemannan) Solution is planned to be evaluated for safety and effectiveness as a potential treatment for candidiasis, a yeast infection, commonly known as thrush, which is associated with mouth sores.
Detailed Description
CelAgace™ contains two active ingredients, a silver citrate complex salt (0.01mg/ml) that has demonstrated laboratory effectiveness against yeast organisms and acemannan (4.0mg/ml), a purified extract isolated from the inner leaf gel of the Aloe vera plant that has been used as a key ingredient in other oral care products. Patients will swish and spit the product 4 times daily (after meals and at bedtime) for 14 days. Following an initial office visit, patients will be evaluated on days 7 and 14 to determine response to the product.
