Silatrix Oral Gel Description
Silatrix Oral Gel is an amorphous hydrogel formed by the controlled reaction of sucralfate with a limited quantity of malic acid and calcium carbonate solution. The amorphous hydrogel formed by this reaction binds reversibly to wounds and is intended to form a protective film that covers wounds, protects against further irritation and relieves pain.
Silatrix Oral Gel may be administered directly to an accessible oral wound to provide an adherent physical covering of the wound bed. Although prepared by reaction of sucralfate with an acid, the polymerized sucralfate self-buffers to a pH 5.0 - 7 .0.
INGREDIENTS
Silatrix Oral Gel contains sucralfate, malic acid, calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate dihydrate, sucralose, xanthan gum, propylene glycol, and purified water.
INDICATIONS AND USES
