        Mucotrol is a new product and is not yet widely available. A small double blind study was done in India titled "A Double Blind Randomized Placebo Controlled Parallel Study To Evaluate The Efficacy And Safety OF mf 5232 (mucotrol), A Concentrated Oral Gel Wager In Chemotherapy And/Or Radiation Induced Mucositis In Cancer Patients.
        A larger multi center study is now in progress.

        Mucotrol is formulated to coat the oral membranes and adhere to inflamed tissue in the mouth. In this way it relieves the pain associated with the inflamed tissue and allows the tissue to heal.
