Cream and Suppository Forms

Complaints of infection and itching in the vagina are usually treated with creams and suppositories but there are still many people who are confused about how to use drugs for the vagina. How to use it right will certainly affect the effectiveness of the drug and the healing process of your complaint. Take a good look at the following guide: 

There are various types of vaginal medications available in the market, either with or without a doctor's prescription. The most common are:

Cream Some vaginal creams may only be intended for the treatment of areas outside the vagina, such as the vulva and labia (lips of the vagina), not inserted into the vagina. That is why it is important to read the instructions for use on the packaging before using the cream.


Tablets and suppositories. Suppositories are a way of administering medicine through a special tube that is inserted into the anus, vagina, or urethra (urinary tract). This type of drug melts easily, softens quickly, and dissolves easily at body temperature, and is very safe like boric acid suppositories

The best time to use medicine for the vagina Ideally, vaginal medications are used at night before going to bed when you are not physically active anymore. Thus, the cream can absorb well in the skin around the vagina. This is also a way to prevent a medicine from leaking out of the vagina that might occur when you stand or walk.

If you need to use this medicine more than once a day, check the instructions for use listed on the label of the package and then check how long the time between the first use and the next use is. If the package label does not provide complete information, first consult your doctor or pharmacist regarding this issue.

Steps to use medicine for the vagina by type Read the following steps carefully so that you can get more optimal results in treatment.

The first thing you should do is wash your vaginal area gently using warm water. Then dry gently with a towel until completely dry. Choose the most comfortable position. First, you can lie on the bed with your knees bent and your legs slightly stretched. Don't forget to cover the sheets with a towel to prevent the cream from staining your sheets. Or, you can do it while standing with your right foot in a higher position and your left foot on the floor.

For vaginal cream

Attach the applicator to the hole in the cream tube and twist it until it adheres tightly. Press the cream from the tube into the applicator until it reaches the recommended dosage. After that twist the applicator so that it can be separated from the tube and apply evenly to the infected area using the applicator.

For tablets or suppositories

Place the medication on the tip of the applicator. Either while standing or lying position as described above. Gently insert the applicator into the vagina as far as you can and feel comfortable. Once the applicator is in the vagina, press the button on the applicator to release the tablet or suppository. If you are using a reusable applicator, wash the applicator thoroughly with soap and warm water according to the instructions on the package. However, if you use a disposable applicator, then throw the applicator in a closed trash can and keep it out of reach of children or pets.
