Himalaya Drug Company, has launched a novel herbal medicine, Oro-T, an advanced mouth rinse with turmeric powder for cancer patients.

 

Oro-T, a polyherbal formulation, is a first-of-its-kind product with preventive and curative properties for ‘Oral Mucositis’, which occurs in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy. 

 

The product is developed by infusing herbal ingredients like Turmeric, Triphala, and Honey.  Curcumin, an active component in Turmeric, is one of the highly-researched molecules in the field of herbal medicine, and has potent anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor properties.

 

Honey is validated to have wound-healing properties, while Triphala, due to its astringent property, acts as wound-healing agent too. The mouth rinse can also be purchased online through the Himalaya online store as well as the mobile app.

 

Oro-T also helps in treating Oral Submucous Fibrosis (OSF or OSMF), a chronic debilitating disease of the oral cavity characterized by inflammation and progressive fibrosis (hardening) of the underlying tissues of the mouth. OSF or OSMF is mainly associated with chronic Pan and Ghutka users.
