Effects

Sometimes the symptoms of vaginal infections (such as itching, burning and discharge) can get worse at the beginning of the treatment, before they start to get better. You should continue with the treatment, but if the complaints persist see your doctor for advice as soon as possible. Common side effects are Vaginal discharge; vaginal itching or vaginal burning; Vaginal yeast infection (thrush).

Using a higher daily dose or increasing the recommended duration might increase the risk of vaginal ulcerations. If you have accidentally used too many vaginal tablets, tell your doctor.
Do not use a double dose to make up for a forgotten tablet.
A treatment of less than 6 days may result in a relapse. Therefore, do not stop treatment early, even when you have no discomfort (e.g. itching, discharge, smell) anymore.

Indications

Dequalinium chloride, the active ingredient in Fluomizin, belongs to the family of anti-infective and antiseptic drugs. Dequalinium chloride is active against the bacteria which cause bacterial vaginosis. Fluomizin is used for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis. It is inserted into the vagina for treatment at the site of infection.

Precautions

Intravaginal use of soaps, spermicides and vaginal douches (vaginal washes) is not recommended during treatment with Fluomizin.
As with all vaginal infections, unprotected sexual intercourse during treatment with Fluomizin is not recommended.
Fluomizin does not reduce the effectiveness of latex condoms.
This product may reduce the effectiveness of non-latex condoms or diaphragms. Consequently, you should use alternative methods of contraception for at least 12 hours following the treatment.
Do not use Fluomizin within 12 hours before birth to minimize exposure of the newborn to dequalinium chloride. Please inform your doctor otherwise.
You should stop the treatment during the heavy bleeding period of your menstruation and resume afterwards.
You should talk to your doctor if the symptoms persist at the end of the treatment or in case the symptoms return.
