Comment:
With recurrent canker sores, this medication is a pain saver. And it reduces healing time by half, at least.

Comment:
When I was a little kid my mother used alum on my canker sores but this works so much better and it takes the sting out of it. I take arthritis meds and they deplete my folic acid levels that cause my canker sores and even though I'm prescribed 1 gram of folic acid as part of my arthritis regimen I still get them periodically. This is where the triamcinolone comes in handy.

Absolutely wonderful cure for excruciating gnawing long lasting mouth ulcers.

Comment:
I get painful canker sores that can last up to 2 weeks! I had tried everything, and by sheer luck, found the name of this medication through an internet forum discussion over 10 years ago. I get a prescription either from my dentist or doctor. The paste is sticky and the trick is to put it on a Q-tip not use too much of it. I use it at bedtime, and the sore has shrunk considerably by morning.
