Trichomoniasis suppositories

Suppositories for trichomoniasis are an effective means of combating the unpleasant consequences of the disease.

But it is not recommended to take medications on your own. After all, despite a number of positive qualities, there will always be contraindications. Information about all this will be presented below.

What can be said about the use of suppositories for trichomoniasis during pregnancy? Of course, as with other medications, there are limitations. The first trimester of pregnancy is especially risky. During this period, it is generally undesirable to take such medications, but you can’t leave the infection in the body either. Therefore, everything is done only in agreement with the attending physician. After all, independent intervention can harm not only the woman’s body, but also the unborn child.

In general, suppositories for trichomoniasis are contraindicated during pregnancy. Therefore, it is strictly forbidden to use them on your own. In particularly difficult cases, these suppositories can be replaced with similar drugs, but of a “lighter” action, so that they cannot harm the developing organism. Every patient should have this information.

Indications for use

Suppositories for the treatment of trichomoniasis are prescribed to people with trichomonas colpitis. In fact, such drugs fight against this phenomenon.

Release form

What is the form of release of the drugs, and what should you pay attention to when choosing an effective remedy? It is clear that such medications are produced in the form of suppositories. This becomes clear from the name itself. But how many pieces are they packaged in, what does the packaging look like and what is included in the composition of the drugs? So, in this case, it is worth switching to a specific example. In this role will act suppositories for trichomoniasis called Osarbon.

As a rule, this is a cardboard box, inside which the suppositories are located. There are two types of packaging, cellular contour (1) and cellular contour (2). There is no particular difference in this. What is included in the composition of this drug? As a rule, it is acetarsol, an active substance that effectively fights infection. Boric acid and dextrose come to its aid. Only all this is in the drug in a certain amount, actually, this is how it should be.

Acetarsol contains about 250 mg, boric acid and dextrose make up 300 mg. Moreover, this dosage implies 300 mg of each substance. Due to such a favorable ratio of active components, suppositories for the treatment of trichomoniasis are so effective.

Pharmacodynamics

The active component, acesartol, thanks to its good ability to block any enzyme systems, successfully disrupts metabolic processes between protozoa. In this case, we mean bacteria that cause this disease. But in order for everything to be really effective and to avoid intoxication, you will have to maintain an acidic environment in the vagina. Usually, the attending physician talks about this and prescribes certain procedures.

In addition to acesartol, the suppositories also contain glucose. What is its effect? As a rule, it is the same nutrient substrate that supports the vaginal microflora. And finally, lactobacilli, which promote the decomposition of glucose with the formation of the necessary lactic acid. This is what allows you to maintain an acidic environment in the vagina.

Suppositories for trichomoniasis also include boric acid. It has a similar property to lactobacilli. That's all about a certain drug, namely Osarbon. Other suppositories for the treatment of trichomoniasis may include certain components.

Pharmacokinetics

These drugs can be easily absorbed into the vaginal walls, thereby causing a therapeutic effect. However, during treatment, it is still worth maintaining normal vaginal microflora. There is no need to worry about this, because any drug contains glucose or boric acid. They promote the production of lactic acid, which maintains an acidic environment in the vagina.

In addition, each drug contains a special active component that fights the current situation. So, in the example of Osarbon, this is acesartol. It does not allow bacteria to multiply and in every possible way blocks their negative effects. In addition, lactobacilli play a major role, which, so to speak, "work" together with glucose. After all, it is essentially unable to decompose itself and form lactic acid. Therefore, lactobacilli come directly to its aid.

In general, suppositories for trichomoniasis are aimed at completely curing a person. Only one unresolved question remains: how to choose the right remedy? When choosing suppositories for the treatment of trichomoniasis, all individual aspects of the body are taken into account. Therefore, the solution to this issue rightfully belongs to the attending physician.

Method of administration and dosage

As a rule, the treatment of this disease should be complex and based on the simultaneous use of several drugs. However, it is not recommended to combine everything on your own. As a rule, in order to get rid of all the unpleasant symptoms, it is necessary to take the drug for several days.

The thing is that suppositories for trichomoniasis are effective only if you follow all the instructions. So, using Osarbon as an example, it is worth voicing how to do it correctly. So, you first need to remove the suppository from the cardboard packaging, and then insert it into the vagina. Moreover, this is done in a special way. You need to lie on your back and insert the suppository as deeply as possible. How often should this procedure be repeated? One suppository per day is enough.

If the situation is quite complicated, then the individual scheme of application is discussed with the attending physician. Usually, suppositories for the treatment of trichomoniasis are used for 10 days. In some cases, this period is extended until complete recovery occurs.

Names of vaginal suppositories for trichomoniasis

There is simply a huge number of different drugs that can provide one or another help. So, what can be said about suppositories for trichomoniasis? There are also many of them, but not all of them can provide the necessary help. In this case, it is worth paying attention to the individual course of the disease and the characteristics of the body.

The undisputed leader is Osarbon, but it is worth noting that it is taken in rather difficult situations. Thanks to its effective substances, it not only improves a person's condition, but also does not "traumatize" the acidic environment of the vagina. Another drug that is also worth paying attention to is Pimafucin. In its properties, it is not inferior to Osarbon, but is more gentle. Because, as mentioned above, Osarbon is used in rather difficult situations. Flagyl will also have the necessary effect.

In addition, Ginalgin also contains good components.

You can also find the following names of suppositories for trichomoniasis in the pharmacy:

• metronidazole;
• ornidazole;
• clindamycin;
• Klion D;
• arthrican.

Osarbon

What can be said about trichomoniasis suppositories Osarbon? They are quite effective, due to the presence of powerful active components.

So, these are glucose, lactobacilli and acetarsol. What can be said about them in general? Glucose is able to break down and turn into lactic acid, which maintains the acidic environment of the vagina. But without lactobacilli, it cannot do this. Therefore, in this case, the two components seem to work together. As for acetarsol, it does not allow protozoa to multiply in the vagina. Simply put, it blocks the infection and does not allow it to spread. This is the essence of the work of this drug.

Naturally, these suppositories for trichomoniasis also include boric acid, which is also responsible for maintaining normal microflora. Indications for use of the drug are the presence of trichomoniasis. But there are also contraindications. So, people with increased hypersensitivity are not recommended to use this remedy. In addition, liver and kidney problems are also at risk. Pregnancy is another dangerous factor that is worth paying attention to. During the reception, side effects may occur in the form of allergic reactions. Only the attending physician prescribes such suppositories for the treatment of trichomoniasis.

Contraindications for use

People who have hypersensitivity to the components of these drugs are strictly prohibited from taking them. After all, this can cause an allergic reaction of the body. How does it manifest itself? As a rule, this is a feeling of dryness in the vagina, burning and itching.

In addition to hypersensitivity, it is worth paying attention to other important aspects. Thus, renal or hepatic insufficiency also requires refusal to take such drugs. In addition, diabetes is also the main contraindication. If a person suffers from this disease, then it is not worth using suppositories to treat trichomoniasis. But this is not all, the risk group also includes patients with tuberculosis.

In addition, there is a special danger for those people who have hemorrhagic diathesis. And finally, pregnancy is also the main contraindication.

Side effects

No one is protected from the negative impact of some components. Therefore, before going to the pharmacy for another effective remedy, it is still worth consulting with an experienced doctor. After all, suppositories for trichomoniasis are not a harmless remedy that can be taken by everyone without discrimination. Because many people have hypersensitivity to some components of the drug.

This can cause an allergic reaction. This is one of the main side effects. What is it? As a rule, a person feels discomfort in the vagina. So, it can be both a regular itch, and dryness and irritability. In addition to an allergic reaction, hepatitis also occurs. Especially if a person already has liver failure.

And finally, polyneuritis may also occur, which is not good. Therefore, when choosing suppositories for the treatment of trichomoniasis, it is worth consulting a doctor.

Overdose

Like other drugs, vaginal suppositories can cause an overdose in humans. The most that can happen is an allergic reaction. What is it? Basically, it is an unpleasant sensation in the vagina, dryness, itching and irritation of the mucous membrane.

Interactions with other drugs

What interactions do trichomoniasis suppositories have with other medications? This issue has its own special nuances. For example, taking several similar medications is prohibited in some cases. Why is that? The fact is that the active components of one medication may well enhance the effect of other components.

Storage conditions

Should you follow the storage conditions for trichomoniasis suppositories? Of course, you can't ignore this issue. After all, the effectiveness of the drug depends on the correct storage conditions.

No dampness or bright light, all this can destroy the beneficial properties of the drugs. The fact is that direct sunlight has too detrimental an effect on the medicine. Dampness also does not bode well. But this is far from all, the temperature regime is also important. Usually it should not exceed 25 degrees Celsius.

The medicine should never be frozen. Children should be protected from the pills, because they can harm themselves this way. These are probably the most important storage conditions. It is also worth paying attention to the external data. So, if the suppositories for trichomoniasis have changed color, they cannot be used.

You should not ignore strange smells. Only if the basic conditions are correctly observed, you can preserve the product for a long time. After all, suppositories for the treatment of trichomoniasis are stored for many years.

Best before date

What can be said about the expiration date? Some people are somewhat mistaken about storage. They believe that if the packaging has not lost its appearance, then the medicine can be used even after the expiration date. In fact, everything is not so. Because the drug can have a positive effect only for a certain period of time. After that, it is simply useless, even more so, it can harm the human body.

So, the average shelf life of any drug is 3 years. But throughout this time, you need to monitor the medicine. After all, storage conditions play a huge role. So, if the drug is not stored correctly, it is unlikely to be valid for the same 3 years. Therefore, no dampness, moisture or direct sunlight. Medicines also do not like high temperatures, and low temperatures, of course. Therefore, it is advisable to store suppositories for trichomoniasis correctly, so that you do not have to wonder later why the product has deteriorated.

After the expiration date, the product must be thrown away without fail. After all, suppositories for the treatment of trichomoniasis can not only help, but also cause harm.
