Indication

1. What Vagisil is and what it is used for

Vagisil is an emulsion cream. The active ingredient is Lidocaine.

Vagisil is formulated to provide prompt effective relief from the discomfort of minor itching, and irritation of the skin just outside of the vagina and around the anus (back passage). Lidocaine works below the skin surface to anaesthetise skin, to stop itching and irritation and remove the urge to scratch.

Dosing

3. How to use Vagisil

Always use Vagisil exactly as detailed in the instructions. You should check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure how to use the product.

Vagisil is for external use on the skin just outside of the vagina and around the anus (back passage) by adults and children aged 12 years and above.

Apply the cream to the affected area. You can repeat the treatment as needed 3 to 4 times daily for up to one week. If symptoms persist for more than one week, consult your doctor. On rare occasions a persistent itch may be a sign of another condition that only your doctor can diagnose and treat.

If you forget to use Vagisil, do not use a double application to make up for a forgotten treatment. When you remember, apply the cream and continue with the treatment.

If you use more Vagisil than you should: Overdose is unlikely but talk to your doctor or pharmacist straight away, even if you do not feel any symptoms. An overdose may include using more than the recommended amount, applying the cream to large areas or using the cream for longer than recommended.

If you accidentally swallow Vagisil it is unlikely to be harmful but contact your doctor or pharmacist if you are worried.

The symptoms of overdose may include: blurred vision, dizziness or drowsiness, difficulty breathing, trembling, chest pain or an irregular heartbeat. Accidental ingestion may additionally cause: numbness of the throat, nausea, sickness or stomach upset.

If you have any further questions on the use of this product, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
