Sponsor's own description

Background and Objectives: Chronic hemodialysis causes changes in blood chemistry as well as dry mouth, due to removal of excess fluids. Dry mouth is due to hyposalivation or change in saliva composition. Many herbal medicines have been used as treatment options. Since the chamomile was suggested as a potent oral moisturizer by previous studies that have been done in this field. Therefore, the investigators decided to assess the effect of chamomile oral rinse on the SXI score, salivary nitric oxide level, salivary flow rate, OHIP-14, serum creatinine and blood urea levels in elderly patients on chronic hemodialysis. Material and Methods: It is an interventional randomized controlled clinical trial with a biochemical assessment. A chamomile, and placebo mouthwashes were provided to eighty-eight elderly participants with end-stage renal disease suffering from xerostomia. Patients were divided into 2 equal groups who used either the chamomile or placebo mouthwash for one month. The SXI score and salivary flow rate were evaluated for both groups at different intervals (baseline, 1 week, and 1 month). While salivary NO levels, OHIP-14, serum creatinine and blood urea levels evaluated at baseline and after one month only.
