FDA Requirements for Oral Care

Mouthwash in the Philippines is classified as a cosmetic and regulated by the Philippine FDA. Manufacturers must hold a valid FDA Cosmetics License to Operate.

Orsolab holds FDA Cosmetics LTO No. LTO-3000006301418. This allows us to legally manufacture mouthwash and oral rinse products in the Philippines. Products manufactured at our facility can be registered or notified under your brand name with the FDA.

If your mouthwash includes specific therapeutic claims like cavity prevention or gum disease treatment, additional documentation may be required. We work with clients to ensure formulations and claims comply with Philippine FDA requirements.

We provide all documentation required for FDA compliance including Certificate of Product Analysis, manufacturing batch records, facility licenses, and GMP certification.

Never work with an unlicensed manufacturer. Mouthwash manufactured at unlicensed facilities cannot be legally sold in the Philippines.
