Ginetantum is used for:

the local treatment of inflammation of the vulva and vagina (e.g. vulvovaginitis) of any origin and nature, characterized by small discharge, itching, irritation, burning and pain intimate hygiene in the period after childbirth

Dosage:

Always use this medicine exactly as described in this leaflet or as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. If in doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

The recommended dose is 1-2 vaginal irrigations per day, for seven consecutive days.

Warning: do not exceed the indicated doses without medical advice.

The solution can be used at room temperature. If you want to warm the solution, expose the closed bottle to a jet of hot water for a few minutes.

To open the bottle, hold the knurled ring firmly and twist the cap to break the security seal. Pull the cannula out until you hear it click, as shown in the figure below. The cannula remains attached to the bottle and therefore only the complete extraction allows the liquid to escape. Gently introduce the cannula into the vagina and squeeze the bottle until it is empty. The emptying can be gradual and adjusted as needed, as a special valve prevents the solution from flowing back into the bottle. Perform irrigation lying down as far as possible. The liquid is kept in the vagina for a few minutes.

Do not use Ginetantum for more than 7 days.

Contact your doctor if the disorder persists beyond seven days, occurs repeatedly, or if you notice any recent changes in its characteristics.
