Vaginal preparations are liquid (solutions, emulsions, suspensions, foams), semi-solid (creams, ointments), solid (tablets) and solid (suppositories, capsules) medicinal forms intended for introduction into the vagina, usually for local effect. They are usually applied with a suitable applicator.
Pharmaceutical form of medicinal products | Method of use
|
vaginal cream vaginal ointment | Use the included applicator to insert as deeply as possible into the vagina, preferably at night, in a supine position with slightly bent legs. Do not use the applicator during pregnancy! |
vaginal capsule | Use the included applicator or your hands to insert as deeply as possible into the vagina, lying on your back with your legs slightly bent. Do not use the applicator during pregnancy! |
vaginal suppository | Moisten the suppository with water before insertion to ensure maximum release of the active ingredient. Use the included applicator or your hands to insert as deeply as possible into the vagina, lying on your back with your legs slightly bent. Do not use the applicator during pregnancy! |
vaginal tablet | Moisten the tablet just before insertion by briefly immersing it in lukewarm boiled water. Use the included applicator or your hands to insert as deeply as possible into the vagina, lying on your back with your legs slightly bent. Do not use the applicator during pregnancy! In the morning, do not forget about the hygiene of intimate parts; washing removes the remnants of the vaginal tablet, i.e. dense white matter. |
dermal (skin) cream dermal (skin) ointment | Apply the cream or ointment in a thin layer with gauze or a cosmetic tampon (a strip of cream or ointment 0.5 cm long is enough to treat the skin the size of the palm) on the vaginal area and the rectal area. Use the cream or ointment until all symptoms disappear, then continue the treatment at least twice a week for at least 14 days to 1 month, thereby preventing a possible recurrence of the problem. |
powder for preparation of vaginal solution | apply a pre-prepared solution using an irrigator to wash the vagina and/or to rinse the external genitalia. Wash the irrigator thoroughly with warm water before the first use and after each subsequent use. |
