Answers:

Normally, you don't drink or rinse with water after using flouride (like ACT).. That's because you want the flouride to sit on your teeth for longer and give them protection..

Listerine is just an anti-bacterial mouthwash.. You can rinse your mouth out directly afterward because it works on contact..Health Question & Answer

i wouldn't recommend consuming anything for 1/2 hr after you finish.. it has a weird filmy aftertaste.. it would make the food/drink taste strange, and minty...... But hey, if you want to...... It' really up to you..

i normally use Listerine before i brush, so i don't rinse...... until i finish brushing......Health Question & Answer

I think the general idea is to leave a residue in your mouth so that it can carry on working, so rinsing with water is not ideal.. However, I don't blame you!

I'd use it after your eat.. Otherwise it's kinda pointless to use it..
