Evaluation and Comparison of Efficacy of PeriActive Mouthwash to Chlorhexidine 0.12% Mouth Rinse

Izun Pharmaceuticals has shown that PeriActive, an oral rinse containing extracts of Sambucus nigra, Echinacea purpurea, and Centella asiatica significantly reduced gingival inflammation in an experimental gingivitis model in a phase II study, as well as in numerous other clinical trials. The product and its individual components were shown to be safe. Based on these favorable results, Izun is now seeking to demonstrate that a combined anti-bacterial/anti-inflammatory rinse will potentially enhance soft tissue healing and reduce localized inflammation following dental implant surgery equal to, or better than, a chlorhexidine rinse, with fewer side effects.
