"Chlorhexidine gluconate 0.12% oral rinse should also be dispensed in half-pint bottles, as a pint bottle is way too much for patients to use after many dental surgeries. After having dental surgery above an implant of tooth #30 due to an infection and deep pockets, I was instructed to apply 1/2 once, twice a day for two weeks to the surgical site with dental sponges provided by my dentist. Following the directions, I used 14 ounces out of 32 ounces, leaving 28 ounces that I cannot use. Dispensing more than a half pint was: ~ wasteful, ~ costs twice as what is needed, ~ and using or disposing of what is left is harmful to myself and our environment. Dispensing 2x of what is needed is irresponsible and adds to our country's ever rising medical costs."
