Burning Mouth Syndrome: Anyone had success with compounded mouth rinse
Skin Health | Last Active: Sep 19, 2023 | Replies (42)Comment receiving replies
The head of oral pathology at our local dental school prescribed 0.5 mg of clonazepam 2-3 times a day. I find twice a day is enough for me and have been taking this for years. This is the only thing that has worked for me. Every once in a while I will take just one and I know it is time to go back to two when my mouth begins to burn. This can be a miserable condition without help so I hope you can try it. Before I found this answer, a rheumatologist prescribed a compounded swish and spit. It did not work. I am thankful for the clonazepam. @joybringer1

Mayo Dermatology prescribed a 1mg tablet of clonazepam swish and spit 2-3 times per day and alpha lipoic acid supplement (200 mg) 3x per day. The combination has made a world of difference with BMS symptoms! I have about 70% relief within 2 months of starting this regimen.

Thank you! I am trying the compounded Clonazepam, as Mayo Dermatology will not prescribe the disintegrating tablet to swish and spit. I am truly hoping to finally get some relief from this condition!
