Somogel (20gm) is a high-quality pharmaceutical product used for the rapid relief of mouth ulcers, gum pain, and teething discomfort, available for home delivery at PakMeds.

Somogel Ingredients and Usage

Somogel is a multi-action topical gel widely used in Pakistan for the treatment of painful conditions of the mouth. It is the go-to remedy for mouth ulcers (aphthous ulcers), gingivitis (gum inflammation), and sores caused by dentures or orthodontic braces.

It is also frequently used to soothe the pain of teething in infants and young children. The gel provides immediate cooling and numbing effects, making eating and sleeping much more comfortable for those with oral lesions. PakMeds provides Somogel to help you and your family find fast relief from localized mouth pain and irritation.

The combination of antiseptic and anesthetic ingredients makes it an ideal choice for maintaining oral comfort during minor infections or mechanical injuries to the inner cheeks and tongue.

How Does Somogel Work?

Somogel works through its two primary active components: Lignocaine and Cetylpyridinium Chloride. Lignocaine is a local anesthetic that works by blocking the sodium channels in nerve fibers. This temporarily stops the transmission of pain signals from the ulcer or sore to the brain, providing rapid numbing of the affected area.

Cetylpyridinium Chloride is a powerful antiseptic that kills the bacteria and fungi responsible for oral infections. This helps to clean the ulcer and prevent secondary infections, allowing the natural healing process to occur more quickly. Menthol and Eucalyptol provide a pleasant cooling sensation and help in reducing localized inflammation.

The gel base is specifically formulated to stick to the moist mucous membranes of the mouth, ensuring that the active ingredients stay in contact with the painful area for a longer duration, providing sustained relief.

Somogel Side Effects

Somogel is generally safe for all age groups when used as directed. Some people may experience a temporary stinging sensation when the gel is first applied to an open ulcer. If used excessively, it may lead to temporary numbness of the tongue or throat, which can interfere with swallowing.

Allergic reactions to Lignocaine are rare but can include localized swelling or redness. If your symptoms persist for more than seven days or if you develop a fever, PakMeds recommends consulting a dentist or doctor. Always use the smallest amount necessary to cover the painful area.

List of Warnings:

• For topical use in the mouth only. Do not swallow large amounts.
• Avoid contact with the eyes.
• Do not use in children for prolonged periods without medical advice.
• If you are allergic to local anesthetics, consult a doctor before use.

Somogel Storage Conditions

Store in a cool, dry place below 30°C. Keep the tube tightly closed to prevent the gel from drying out. Keep out of reach of children to avoid accidental ingestion.
