Where can i purchase a corsodyl mouthwash to treat gum disease?

Prescription only: Corsodyl is a brand name for a mouthwash that contains chlorhexadine. This type of mouthwash requires a prescription, but is available at most pharmacies.

Should be by Rx.: The active ingredient in corsodyl is chlorhexidine. It is usually prescribed and dispensed by a dentist or purchased in a pharmacy.
