Eisai to launch Chocola BB mouth ulcer repair shot

Research based healthcare company Eisai has announced Chocola BB’s first oral care spray for Japan. The medicated spray is effective for mouth ulcers and soothing pain caused by inflammation in the throat.

Mouth ulcer is a general term that refers to any inflammation of the mucous membrane in the mouth. In many cases, it is thought that nutritional imbalances, lifestyle changes and stress lead to a decrease in the mucous membrane's ability to regenerate, allowing bacteria to penetrate the membrane and cause an ulcer to form.

Containing antiseptic cetylpyridinium chloride that keeps the mouth clean, as well as azulene which acts to repair the mucous membrane, the spray claims to alleviate the symptoms of mouth ulcers by allowing the active ingredients to be directly applied into the mouth.
