About Chlorhexidine Gluconate, 0.12% Oral Rinse Solution and its cost

What is this medication? Chlorhexidine gluconate 0.12 percent oral rinse solution is a prescription antimicrobial mouthwash primarily used to treat gingivitis. This condition is characterized by red, swollen, and bleeding gums. The medication works by reducing the amount of harmful bacteria in the mouth and helping to decrease the inflammation of the gum tissues. It is often prescribed as part of a professional program for the treatment of gum disease, typically following a thorough dental cleaning or other dental procedures.

This oral rinse is typically used twice daily after brushing. While it is highly effective at controlling bacterial growth, it may cause temporary changes in taste or lead to surface staining of the teeth, tongue, or dental restorations. It is important to follow the specific instructions provided by a dentist or doctor, as the medication is intended to supplement regular oral hygiene practices. Maintaining regular dental checkups while using this solution helps ensure that the treatment is progressing correctly and that the gums are healing as expected.

Chlorhexidine Gluconate, 0.12% Oral Rinse Solution is made by Xttrium. Like most brand-name drugs, it's priced at a high list price — but patients rarely pay that list price. The options above are the real paths most people use to get it affordably.

Common questions

What's the cheapest way to afford Chlorhexidine Gluconate, 0.12% Oral Rinse Solution?

It depends on your insurance. On Medicare, apply for the manufacturer's Patient Assistance Program (PAP) — it gives the drug free if you meet income requirements. With private insurance, the manufacturer copay card usually drops your copay to $0-$25. Uninsured patients should compare the PAP with Cost Plus Drugs cash price.

Can I use a copay card with Medicare for Chlorhexidine Gluconate, 0.12% Oral Rinse Solution?

No — federal law (the Anti-Kickback Statute) prohibits manufacturer copay cards on Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare, and VA prescriptions. But Xttrium has a separate Patient Assistance Program for Medicare beneficiaries. Check the options above.

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Chlorhexidine Gluconate, 0.12% Oral Rinse Solution?

Part D coverage varies by plan. We query the CMS Prescription Drug Plan file to show you what percentage of plans cover it and at what tier. For your exact copay, pick "Medicare" above and check your plan's Summary of Benefits, or log in to Medicare.gov.

How long does a Patient Assistance Program take?

Most PAPs take 2-6 weeks from application to first fill. Ask the manufacturer about a "bridge supply" — many will ship 30 days free while your application is being reviewed so you don't go without the drug.

What if I have a high-deductible plan?

For generics, Cost Plus Drugs cash price is often cheaper than your deductible-phase copay. For brand names, the manufacturer copay card almost always wins. A GoodRx coupon can be a last resort for uncovered drugs, but it doesn't count toward your deductible.

Are there charity grants for Gingivitis?

Charities like HealthWell Foundation, PAN Foundation, Good Days, and the National Organization for Rare Disorders provide copay help for specific conditions. Funds often run out mid-year — apply early. We list the specific grants for your condition in the options above.
