How does Pyralvex work?

Salicylic acid is a type of medicine called salicylate. It works by blocking the action of a substance in the body called cyclo-oxygenase. Cyclo-oxygenase is involved in the production of various chemicals in the body, including some known as prostaglandins. Prostaglandins have many actions and are involved in causing inflammation. The body produces prostaglandins in response to injury and they cause an increase in the blood supply to the area of damage. This results in swelling, heat, redness and pain in that area. By blocking cyclo-oxygenase, salicylic acid stops the formation of prostaglandins and therefore reduces inflammation and pain in the area of the mouth it is applied to. Pyralvex solution contains two active ingredients namely salicylic acid and rhubarb extract.
