Chemo patients experiencing<br />

oral mucositis, or mouth sores, find<br />

relief using CloSYS rinses.<br />

TREAT ORAL PAIN<br />

DURING<br />

CHEMOTHERAPY<br />

Oral pain can be extremely debilitating for anyone, but it’s an especially<br />

common problem for people going through chemotherapy. Unfortunately,<br />

this is not the topic of much conversation, and less awareness has translated<br />

to fewer treatments available from pharmaceutical companies and<br />

others, according to Andy Gritti, executive vice president of Rowpar<br />

Pharmaceuticals.<br />

Gritti has spoken with oncology nurses regarding oral sensitivity and<br />

its impact on patients. He says big pharma and health care practitioners<br />

need to develop more progressive treatments for this specific side effect.<br />

Rowpar’s line of CloSYS dental products—particularly its unflavored,<br />

alcohol-free oral health rinse—are often distributed to help chemotherapy<br />

patients experiencing mouth sores as a result of their treatment.<br />
