Antimicrobial flavored compositions having particular utility as mouth washes

摘要

Aqueous homogeneous preparations containing 0.0025 to 0.1% by weight antimicrobial biguanide compounds, 0.005 to 0.2% by weight of an alkyl glycoside, 0.01 to 0.3% by weight of a water-insoluble aromatic oil, 0.01 to 0.3% by weight of a solubilizer from the group consisting of ethoxylated fatty acid glycerides, ethoxylated fatty acid sorbitan partial esters or fatty acid partial esters of glycerol or sorbitan ethoxylates show high activity despite the low concentration of antimicrobial biguanide compounds. The clear solubility is obtained without ethanol or with only very small contents of up to 15% by weight of ethanol. The preparations are particularly suitable as mouthwashes.
