For most patients, Periogard leaves a bad aftertaste in the mouth, sometimes for hours. Some patients have experienced swelling of the salivary glands with Periogard. Allergic reactions are rare but potentially severe and include a severe skin reaction (body-wide blistering and peeling, fever, and swelling) and anaphylaxis, a dangerous and potentially fatal drop in blood pressure.

Chlorhexidine is a poison and should not be swallowed. Always spit it out after use. If Periogard is swallowed, typical side effects include stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, since chlorhexidine is not easily absorbed by the digestive system.
