ARESTIN® (minocycline HCl) Microspheres, 1mg is used in combination with scaling and root planing (SRP) procedures to treat patients with adult periodontitis (gum disease). ARESTIN® may be used as part of an overall oral health program that includes good brushing and flossing habits and SRP.

How long does Arestin last for?

ARESTIN® starts working quickly, right at the source of infection, and keeps fighting bacteria long after you leave the dental office. ARESTIN® fights infection and inflammation for 30 days,2 and provides significantly better results than scaling and root planing alone for up to 90 days.

When should Arestin be placed?

ARESTIN is applied to infected pockets in the gums immediately after a scaling and root planing (SRP) has been completed. Your dental professional may apply ARESTIN during the same visit as your SRP or during a follow-up visit.

How much does Arestin cost?

This is a brand name drug and a generic may be available. The average cost for 30 Miscellaneous(s), 1mg each, is $3,641.70. You can buy Arestin at the discounted price of $3,032.61 by using the WebMDRx coupon, a savings of 17%. Even if this drug is covered by Medicare or your insurance, we recommend you compare prices.

Does ARESTIN have side effects?

Headache, gum discomfort/pain/soreness or toothache may occur. If any of these effects last or get worse, tell your dentist or pharmacist promptly. Remember that this medication has been prescribed because your dentist has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects.

How long after ARESTIN can I brush my teeth?

HOME CARE INSTRUCTIONS AFTER TREATMENT WITH ARESTIN® Wait to brush. Wait 12 hours before brushing your teeth in areas that have been treated with ARESTIN®. Wait to floss. Wait 10 days before flossing or using toothpicks or other devices that clean between your teeth in areas that have been treated with ARESTIN®.

Is there an alternative to Arestin?

Minocycline is a tetracycline antibiotic that has been used for many years and is available in formulations from a compounding pharmacy. Dentists have found our 2% minocycline gel to have the same effectiveness as Arestin and some have found it to be more effective.

Can pockets in gums heal?

Periodontal pockets are a symptom of periodontitis (gum disease), a serious oral infection. Periodontal pockets can be treated and reversed with good oral hygiene or with dental treatment.
