This medication may cause some common side effects such as staining of the teeth or tongue, increased tartar buildup, and irritation in the mouth or throat. You might also experience a dry mouth or a change in the taste of food or drinks. These effects are generally mild but should be reported to your healthcare provider if they persist or worsen. To minimize tooth and mouth staining, it is recommended to brush your teeth three times a day, focusing on stained areas. Using a tartar control toothpaste and an electric toothbrush may provide better results. Regular dental check-ups every six months are also advisable for professional cleaning and tartar removal. If you have dental work like crowns or veneers, these may require professional cleaning as staining might occur.

If you find your sense of taste affected, try eating before brushing your teeth and using the rinse. Although serious side effects are rare, be vigilant for signs of an allergic reaction, such as a rash in the mouth or on the skin, itching or swelling, especially of the face, tongue, or throat, severe dizziness, or difficulty breathing. Seek immediate medical attention if these occur. If you notice any other unusual effects, contact your healthcare provider.
