3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a prospective, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled, crossover clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of 2-DeNT oral topical powder in the treatment of recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS). To be included in the study, subjects must have had minor RAS ulcers of less than 48 hours duration. It was randomly determined which powder was used first; all subjects used both the 2-DeNT powder and the placebo powder. Subjects applied the powder twice daily and maintained a daily log recording the size of the ulcer, its erythema score, and their level of pain. The subjects continued applying the 2-DeNT powder until the ulcer was resolved.
The purpose of this research study is to find out if taking a multivitamin daily can affect the number of canker sores that people get and how long they last. Previous studies have shown that people who get canker sores are more likely to be deficient in one or more vitamins. It has also been found that correction of such vitamin deficiencies reduces the number and duration of canker sores. However, it is not known if taking a multivitamin daily will reduce the number and duration of canker sores.
