Quick Question: Bioxtra Mouthwash

I use Difflam as a mouthwash, weak solution, find that it works well, supplied on prescription. Biotene gel is also supplied... for over 2 years now 

I got mine two weeks ago. I’ll let you know at next prescription. I’m in wales so might be different 

Hi, I used to use Difflam during and post treatment. I am nearly 2 years on since treatment and switched to Bioxtra.

Thanks Dani. I’ve queried it with them so let’s see what they say! 
Hope you’re having a lovely time in Wales. 

I got it last week on prescription from GP. It has to be hand written not computer as computer didn't recognise it so the pharmacist hand wrote it. I then got it from boots. I'm in northern Ireland. Hope this helps

Thank you… useful to know. They’ve since said that they can offer it on a private prescription but would be cheaper over the counter. They’ve suggested I have a call with GP to discuss further! 

news to me... I have it on repeat prescription.. have a word with your oncologist.

Hi mines due to be ordered Monday I’m in England will let you know. It’s not good enough we  hnc patients already have to pay for many things   Rant over.

I am prescribed fluorigard.  I don’t bother with the prescription though both because it is readily available and not much dearer than the one I used to use….and the fact that the pharmacy at the surgery used to give me the one with alcohol when the prescription clearly said no alcohol, so I gave up!

The whole thing has been odd. It’s been on repeat for me. My husband when to collect and it wasn’t there. I contacted my surgery and got a message to say my GP had sorted and it would be ready to collect in a few days. Then today, this… ! I’ll update after I speak to a Dr on Monday but will contact oncology too. Thanks, Lx
