A pharmaceutical composition having a gel consistency at room temperature and suitable for the treatment of a vaginal infection comprises, on a total composition weight basis, about 0.1 to about 3 weight percent of benzydamine hydrochloride, about 16 to about 35 weight percent of a polyoxyalkylene block copolymer, and about 2 to about 30 weight percent of propylene glycol, in water having a pH value in the range of about 3.5 to about 7. The weight ratio of water to polyoxyalkylene block copolymer in the composition is less than about 4:1. Optionally, the gel compositions can also contain glycerin, physiologically tolerable preservatives and buffers, as well as other pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.

The invention relates to the technical field of antibacterial liquids, and particularly relates to a medical antibacterial liquid and a preparation method thereof. Each liter of antibacterial liquid is prepared from the following materials: 1.7-1.9g of dialkyl quaternary ammonium salt, 30-50ml of glycerol, 0.1-1.3g of menthol, 3-20ml of ethanol, 3-6g of traditional Chinese medicine extract, and the balance of purified water. The materials of the medical antibacterial liquid are in supplement with each other and play the synergistic action; and the traditional Chinese medicine extract contains a plurality of antiphlogistic, antibacterial and analgesic components, so that the antibacterial property achieves the optimal extent. The biocompatibility of the medical antibacterial liquid accords with the requirements of GB / T16886.11-2011; and a microbiological indicator accords with the requirements of GB15979-2002. The medical antibacterial liquid is suitable for nursing of small-area skin and oral infection, burns and scalds, wound infection, vaginal infection, anus infection and mucosal wound infection, nursing of the newborn skin and umbilical region, and nursing of postpartum genital and wound infection; wound healing is facilitated; and postoperative infection is also reduced.

The present invention relates to a pH test glove bearing a reporter substance indicating the possible presence of vaginal affection. such as infections, in particular bacterial vaginosis, or vaginitis. This glove is easy to use, accurate and safe for the woman using it. The present invention also provides packages comprising the glove and gynecological compositions for treating vaginal affections

The present invention provides methods and compositions for administration of Lactobacillus iners alone or together with at least one other probiotic organism such as Bifordobacterium, or another Lactobacillus for reduction of the risk of urogenital infection and concomitant restoration and / or maintenance of a healthy urogenital flora. A method of treatment of vaginal infections is also contemplated.

A vaginal treatment composition that rapidly forms a gel when placed into contact with monovalent or polyvalent cations, such as sodium (Na+) and calcium (Ca2+) cations naturally found in vaginal mucosa, is provided. The gel may form in less than about 1 hour, in some embodiments less than about 1 minute, and in some embodiments, less than about 30 seconds. Among other things, such rapid gelation reduces the likelihood of leakage during use. In addition, because the gel may form intravaginally, it is more likely to retain its structure and shape over an extended period of time. In this manner, the gel may provide the prolonged release of a therapeutic agent that inhibits and / or treats vaginal infection. For instance, the gel may remain within the vagina for about 2 to about 48 hours to provide the desired effect.

The present invention refers to a treatment for mixed infectious diseases in the human reproductive system, wherein an association of compounds containing fluconazole and either tinidazole or secnidazole is used, the same being associated in doses lower to those commonly used therapeutically. The combination has proven to be highly efficacious and shown a good degree of tolerance.

The present invention provides a buffered non-flowing composition suitable for the treatment of bacterial vaginosis. The composition includes metronidazole in a concentration of about 0.50% (w / w) to about 1.50% (w / w). The metronidazole is present together with a buffer system in a physiologically tolerable medium. The buffer system provides an acidic buffered pH value for the composition in the range of about 5.0 to about 6.0. The present invention also provides for a method for inhibiting a microorganism. The method includes contacting a microorganism with an effective amount of the composition of the present invention, for a period of time effective to inhibit the microorganism. The present invention also provides for a method for treating bacterial vaginosis in a human patient. The method includes intravaginal administration to a patient in need of such treatment an effective amount of the composition the present invention. The composition is introduced into the vagina at least once a day for a time period of at least one day.

The ointments and methods described herein are useful for treating fungal and yeast infections of the oral cavity and vagina. Ointments containing antifungal and / or antibacterial agents, and a mixture of water-soluble and water-insoluble components, which are effective in single or multiple doses for the treatment of oral and / or vaginal Fungal and / or antibacterial agents are kept above a minimum concentration. The method of treating infection with a single dose includes a method of determining at set intervals whether the ointment is effective in a single dose blood concentration test of antifungal and antibacterial agents.

The present invention generally relates to methods and compositions for treating pathogenic vaginal biofilms. More specifically, the invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising a combination of boric acid and diethylaminetetracetic acid (EDTA) and to methods of using such compositions to treat or prevent biofilm formation associated with vaginal infections, such as bacterial vaginosis (BV), vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), trichomoniasis or mixed infections.

A vaginal treatment composition that employs a therapeutic agent to inhibit and / or treat vaginal infection is provided. The therapeutic agent is capable of inhibiting and / or killing Gardnerella (e.g., Gardnerella vaginalis), Candida (e.g., Candida albicans), and / or Trichomonas (e.g., Trichomonas vaginalis) pathogens. Desirably, such antimicrobial efficacy is achieved without substantially inhibiting the growth of Lactobacillus acidophilus. For instance, sugars and / or sugar alcohols may be employed in the present invention as a therapeutic agent for inhibiting and / or treating vaginal infection. In one particular embodiment, D-xylitol is used as the therapeutic agent.
