If I use one mouthwash after another, am I negating the benefits of the first?
Let’s say (as an example) I use an anti-bacterial mouthwash, use it as directed, then immediately afterwards I use a whitening mouthwash. Will I still get the same benefits from the anti-bacterial mouthwash, or will the second mouthwash rinse out the first?

The anti-bacterial mouthwash already has killed all the germs, so it has done its job.
No, but you are making someone wealthier.
Have you considered using one mouthwash before another? That might help.
@DarkScribe I was thinking maybe mix them together into a super mouthwash?
Man I feel like brushing my teeth all the sudden.
They’re really all the same thing. Now if you used some sort of anti-mouthwash, that might negate the effects.

What is an “anti-mouth” and how do you wash it. (Why does it need washing?)
@DarkScribe I don’t know. It seemed to make as much sense as using a mouthwash after using a mouthwash.
The proper way to do this is to gargle with one mouthwash and use the other as a colon cleanse so as to attack the problem from both ends, as it were.

Does it really work instantaneously?
If so, then it doesn’t matter. But maybe you’ll get better results if you let it work in for a while. I don’t know, read the label.
If so, then anti-bacterial mouth wash first, then take a break, then whitening mouth wash.
Yeah, I think the anti-bacterial one kills the germs in the the full 30 seconds that it recommends swishing for.
@Fyrius I think you’re supposed to rinse with it for 60 seconds, and that is when all of the bacteria killing takes place.
