What is Oramagic Rx?
Aloe vera topical is made from the extract of the aloe vera plant leaf. Aloe vera is also known as Burn Plant, Elephant's Gall, Ghee-Kunwar, Hsiang-Dan, Kanya, Kumari, Lily of the Desert, Miracle Plant, and other names.
Aloe vera topical has been used in alternative medicine as a possibly effective aid in treating cold sores, itching or rash inside the mouth (Lichen planus), or psoriasis. Aloe vera topical may have been combined with other plants or extracts in a specific preparation to treat these conditions.
Research has shown that aloe vera topical may not be effective in preventing sunburn, reducing skin damage caused by radiation cancer treatment, or improving the immune system in people with HIV (human immunodeficiency virus).
Other uses not proven with research have included diaper rash, dry skin, dandruff, frostbite, repelling insects, and healing burns, bedsores, and other wounds.
