General Information
KENALOG IN ORABASE provides fast acting treatment for mouth ulcers and oral abrasions. It contains a corticosteroid called triamcinolone acetonide that reduces inflammation and discomfort.
KENALOG IN ORABASE helps heal and relieve tenderness, pain, and inflammation of mouth ulcers & oral abrasions. The sticky, wound healing paste holds the corticosteroid in place while creating a protective barrier over the top of your mouth ulcer, helping to prevent further irritation or injury.

1) Provides rapid healing for mouth ulcers
2) Quickly relieves pain and inflammation from mouth ulcers
