    THERAPEUTIC MANAGEMENT OF COMMON SYMPTOMATIC ORAL LESIONS IN CHILDREN Catherine M. Flaitz, DDS, MS The Ohio State University College of Dentistry Revised: February 2018 PALLIATIVE MANAGEMENT OF ORAL MUCOSAL PAIN Topical Anesthetics and Coating Agents: Rx: Diphenhydramine hydrochloride liquid 1.25 mg/ mL and aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide oral suspension (Maalox); Mix in a 1:1 ratio Disp: 200 mL Sig: Rinse with 1 to 2 teaspoons (5-10 mL) every 4 hours for 2 minutes; swish and spit or swish and swallow. Shake well before use and store suspension at room temperature. Pediatric significance: Although both medications are over-the-counter (OTC), usually this mouthrinse is compounded by the pharmacy and is stable for 60 days. For children who cannot rinse, the suspension can be swabbed inside of mouth with a disposable oral swab or cotton-tipped applicator. If swallowed because of concurrent throat pain, the maximum amount is 4 mL/kg/d or 5 mg/kg/d of diphenhydramine. Because there are several diphenhydramine liquid formulas available, one that is alcohol-free should be requested. Do not substitute bismuth subsalicylate for aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide oral suspension because it contains salicylate. Bismuth subsalicylate can cause black staining of the tongue and contraindicated in children who have a hypersensitivity to salicylates. Rx: Diphenhydramine hydrochloride liquid 1.25 mg/ mL / lidocaine viscous 2% oral solution / aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide oral suspension (Maalox); Mix in a 1:1:1 ratio Disp: 200 mL Sig: Rinse with 1-2 teaspoons (5-10 mL) every 4 hours for 1 minute and spit out excess.

  • Addicted to Wet Lips?
    Addicted to Wet Lips? As the lip balm industry grows bigger and bigger, customers are offered a fascinating array of brands and flavors. You can go for the conservative mint, or try the more adventurous watermelon shimmering gloss. People apply lip balm to keep their lips moisturized, or to keep up with the Hollywood-style of soft, shiny and luscious lips. But some people use lip balms so often that it seems like an obsession. I, myself, glide that white little tube on my lips almost compulsively everyday. I even keep it under my pillow when I go to bed in case my lips need lubrication when I wake up in the middle of the night. A lot of my friends tease me by calling me a “lip balm addict.” Can lip balm really be addictive? Does it contain any chemicals that make us want to use it more and more? Before answering that question, let’s make sure we know exactly what addiction is. Most people associate addiction with a habit that provides pleasure. But there’s actually more to it. Scientifically speaking, addiction is a type of habit that is very difficult to break, characterized by “continuous or periodic impaired control over the consumption or usage of a certain substance, and preoccupation with the substance.” Moreover, the addicted person will experience disagreeable, physical ‘withdrawal symptoms’, which vary from habit to habit. For instance, for the heroin addict, opiate withdrawal can be the most awful experience imaginable – a painful combination of cramps, cravings, vomiting, fever and cold, clammy sweats.
