What are you using it for? Orajel is meant to be used as a temporary remedy until you can get in to see a dentist.

Using oralgel for a weekend should be fine. Why are you using it?

I assume these threads are related. If so, then, it's not a good idea to use oralgel right after having teeth pulled. Her dentist should have given her a prescription for pain meds. If it's run out, then she could try asking for a refill. She could also taking aspirin or ibuprofen.
