Burning mouth syndrome refers to the burning painful condition of the oral cavity in the absence of any other pathologic entity. It is a chronic condition of at least 4-6 months duration and is mainly confined to tongue, lower lip and buccal mucosa. Few local factors, as irritation due to ill fitting prosthesis, candidal infections and xerostomia and few systemic factors as diabetes mellitus, nutritional deficiencies are found associated with burning mouth syndrome. Management of burning mouth syndrome includes medications, psychiatric counselling and correction of any underlying disease. This review presents role of medications and their efficacy in the management of burning mouth syndrome.
