BETADINE VAGINAL PRESSARIES (Povidone Iodine (200mg))

Betadine Vaginal Pessaries function as an antiseptic and disinfectant, utilized primarily to avert and manage infections within the vaginal area that may cause symptoms such as itching, soreness, and irritation. This medication operates by eliminating or inhibiting the growth of harmful microorganisms present in the vagina. It is intended solely for external use, and adherence to the dosage and duration prescribed by a healthcare professional is essential for optimal outcomes. It is recommended that the pessaries be administered at night to enhance their effectiveness. Prior to application, ensure that the area is clean, and it is important to wash your hands thoroughly both before and after using the product. Do not discontinue use until the complete prescribed treatment is finished, even if symptoms improve before the course is completed. Potential adverse effects may include sensations of burning, irritation, itching, and redness at the application site. If any of these effects become troublesome or persist, it is important to contact your healthcare provider. Additionally, if any signs of an allergic reaction occur—such as hives, rash, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, shortness of breath, or coughing—immediate discontinuation of the medication is necessary. Should there be a worsening of infection symptoms or if they persist beyond a week, consult your doctor. Before beginning treatment, it is advisable to inform your healthcare provider if there is a possibility of pregnancy, if you are pregnant, or if you are breastfeeding.
