Abstract: Mucositis is the result of a complex process of interactive biologic phenomena that take place in both the epitelium and the submucosa, often leading to severe pain and increased risk of dangerous syste f48 mic infections. Mucositis is often a side effect during chemotherapy and radiation therapy. The benzamidine derivatives herein described are particularly effective for treating and preventing mucositis since they are acting simultaneously at the several phases that characterize this disease.
