episil - Oral Analgesic Liquid
episil® oral liquid is a medical device for treatment of inflammatory and painful conditions in the oral cavity. The product provides fast pain relief and protection of sore and inflamed mucosal surfaces, as well as severe inflammation caused by e.g. oral mucositis, a common and serious side effect of cancer treatment. In contact with the buccal membrane, episil® transforms into a thin protective layer of gel, offering effective pain relief for up to 8 hours. episil® oral liquid is based on Camurus’ FluidCrystal® topical bioadhesive technology.
