How it works
A film that holds moisture in.
Aquoral is a protective oral spray. Its lipid formula spreads into a thin film over the soft tissue of your mouth, lubricating it and slowing the loss of moisture, much like the natural lipid layer in healthy saliva.
Why water isn't enough
Healthy saliva is more than water. It contains proteins and a thin layer of lipids that coat the mouth, keep it slippery and stop it drying out. When your glands make less saliva, sips of water help only for a few minutes, because water runs off and evaporates.
What Aquoral does differently
Aquoral's active ingredient, oxidized glycerol triesters, forms a lipid film that adheres to the inside of the mouth. The film:
- Lubricates, so the tongue, cheeks and lips move freely when you talk, chew and swallow.
- Holds moisture in, slowing evaporation from the soft tissue.
- Protects irritated tissue from friction.
- Lasts: one use of two sprays can relieve symptoms for 4 to 6 hours.
Two quick sprays. Up to six hours of relief.
Who it is for
Anyone with symptoms of dry mouth (xerostomia), whatever the cause: medications, cancer treatment, Sjögren's syndrome, CPAP, diabetes, ageing or cannabis use. See causes of dry mouth.
