The treatment of chlamydia must be taken seriously. Self-activity in this case is excluded, since the disease can progress to a chronic stage. Before starting therapy, it is recommended to undergo a series of diagnostic measures.

With the help of modern research methods, it is possible not only to detect the alleged causative agent of the pathological process, but also to identify its reaction to a particular medicine. To treat the disease, the doctor prescribes various medications, in particular local ones.

What is this?

For genital chlamydia in women, vaginal suppositories are prescribed. The main effect of such medications is the suppression and destruction of pathogenic microorganisms.

There are also rectal suppositories, which are used mainly by males. Such drugs are injected into the anus. They are convenient because the components included in the composition are absorbed through the intestines and enter directly into the blood, bypassing the digestive tract.

Suppositories are cylindrical or torpedo-shaped. The basis of candles may include:

• Cacao butter.
• Gelatin.
• Glycerol.
• Active substance.

Each candle is individually packaged. As a rule, such products are stored in a cool place.

How are they useful?

Candles have a huge number of advantages. Eg:

1. Easy to use.
2. Used 1 – 2 times a day.
3. There are practically no contraindications.
4. Rarely cause negative manifestations.
5. Safety.
6. Can be used during pregnancy and lactation.

Indications and contraindications

In the first place according to indications is chlamydia. Suppositories are prescribed at any stage of the pathological process. In addition, suppositories are used to stimulate the body's defenses, which is of great importance in the treatment of infectious diseases.

Contraindications include:

• Pathologies of the liver and kidneys.
• Allergic reaction.
• Autoimmune diseases.

During pregnancy and lactation, even if the drug is one of the safest, it is recommended to first consult with a specialist.

And also the patient must be informed about possible side effects:

• Redness.
• Edema.
• Allergic reaction.

Description of the most popular candles

The list of medications is quite wide and the specialist selects a remedy in each specific case based on the stage of the disease and the characteristics of the patient. If the drug is chosen incorrectly, the disease can become chronic.

Rectal and vaginal suppositories have an immunomodulatory, antibacterial and antiseptic effect. Below is a list of the most popular and effective means:

Relieves chlamydial infection and improves immunity. The active ingredient is azoximer bromide. The drug is used vaginally or rectally. The dosage of the drug is prescribed strictly by the doctor. The annotation states that the product is used once a day at night. The main restrictions include: children under 6 years of age, hypersensitivity to the components of the product.

Can be used with caution and only after a doctor's permission during lactation and pregnancy. The drug is prescribed not only for chlamydia, but also for vaginosis, candidiasis, etc.

Just like the previous one, it is used rectally and vaginally, which is why it has gained high popularity among men and women. The main component is interferon. The drug has antiviral and antibacterial effects. In addition to suppressing the activity of chlamydia, the drug has a depressing effect on trichomonas, fungi of the genus Candida and ureaplasma. The main disadvantage of Genferon is its high cost.

Contraindications: hypersensitivity to all components included in the product. It should not be used before 4 months of pregnancy. The medicine is used twice a day, one suppository.

The active component is human recombinant alpha 2b interferon. Suppositories have an immunomodulatory and antiviral effect. The drug normalizes a person’s immune status and suppresses the growth of abnormal cells.

Suppositories are used rectally. Side effects are extremely rare. The drug is prohibited for use in case of individual intolerance. Suppositories are used once daily for 10 days.

The product is sold exclusively with a doctor's prescription. It is intended for vaginal and rectal administration. Main substances: normal human immunoglobulin and Interferon alpha. The drug has an immunostimulating, antiviral and antiherpetic effect.

Kipferon has no negative manifestations, however, it is prohibited to use it if there is an individual intolerance to the components. Prescribed for daily use for 10 days, 1 - 2 suppositories.

Suppositories for vaginal use. The medicine is based on chlorhexidine, an antiseptic that has a detrimental effect on most pathogenic microorganisms, while this does not affect the beneficial microflora of the vagina. The product is allowed to be used during pregnancy and lactation.

After use, rarely, itching and allergic reactions are observed, which disappear after discontinuation of the medication. The only contraindication is individual intolerance to the components of Hexicon. For therapy, one suppository is prescribed twice a day for 7-10 days.

Remember that any product should be used only on the recommendation of your doctor. Before starting treatment, be sure to read the instructions included with the drug.

Which candles are best for women?

Women, of course, are more suitable for vaginal suppositories. They have a detrimental effect on infectious agents through direct contact. This is the main advantage of such funds. They are absolutely safe and have almost no downsides. However, this is not a reason to engage in amateur activities. Vaginal suppositories are on par with antibiotics and antimicrobials. Their use should be supervised by the attending physician. Especially if a representative of the fair sex has a history of chronic pathologies or plans to become pregnant in the near future.

The incubation period for chlamydia is up to 14 days, during which it is almost impossible to recognize the disease. After this period, the first signs of the disease appear in men and women:

• pain that occurs in the abdominal area;
• burning when urinating;
• itching sensations in the genital area;
• In men, inflammation of the urethra occurs;
• general weakness;
• increase in body temperature to 38.5 °C.

In rare cases, bleeding may occur. In men, when chlamydia gets on the surface of the testicles, inflammation of the appendages almost always occurs. The severity of symptoms directly depends on local protective and general compensatory mechanisms. If a man or woman suffers from latent chlamydia, only a doctor can recognize the disease after analyzing the results of laboratory tests.

What types of candles are there and how do they work?

Itching and irritation of the mucous membrane that occurs due to chlamydia can be quickly eliminated with the help of medications available in the form of suppositories. The product is prescribed to both men and women, so it is divided into two types depending on the type of application:

1. Rectal (suppositories for chlamydia for men and women are inserted into the rectum).
2. Vaginal (local drug is prescribed exclusively to women).

It is worth paying attention to the fact that a universal treatment method for chlamydia has not yet been found. For this reason, which suppositories to use for chlamydia are decided in each specific case by a qualified doctor after examining the patient.

Pharmacodynamics

Please note that the pharmacodynamics of drugs directly depends on their composition, as well as pharmacological activity. If we talk about interferons, then these suppositories are characterized by an immunomodulatory effect, that is, they stimulate immune defense already at the cellular stage. Activation of leukocytes entails the elimination of the inflammatory reaction and the normalization of Ig A synthesis. In addition, the vital processes in the cellular structures of pathogenic microorganisms are disrupted.

Antiseptic suppositories interact with microbial cells, disrupt their viability, prevent reproduction and development, which leads to the death of the pathogenic microorganism.

This drug is available in the form of vaginal suppositories, weighing 16 mg. The main active ingredient of the drug is chlorhexidine bigluconate, and the auxiliary components are corn starch, stearic acid, MCC, lactose monohydrate, etc.

The antiseptic is used as a prophylaxis to prevent such pathologies and conditions:

• inflammatory and infectious complications;
• bacterial vaginosis;
• trichomonas, mixed and non-specific colitis;
• sexually transmitted diseases (chlamydia, syphilis, genital herpes, trichomoniasis, etc.).

Women during pregnancy or lactation should take Hexicon suppositories for chlamydia with extreme caution. The antiseptic does not have a negative effect on the microflora of the genital mucosa. During treatment, it is worth limiting the use of iodine-containing and alkaline hygiene products, which can neutralize the effect of vaginal suppositories.

The drug is used to treat infectious diseases, including chlamydia. In addition, suppositories for chlamydia in women and men are prescribed to eliminate allergic diseases, as well as bacterial and viral infections. The main active ingredient is polyoxidonium. Auxiliary components of suppositories for vaginal and rectal use are cocoa butter, mannitol, povidone K17.

Today it is proposed to purchase Polyoxidonium suppositories for chlamydia in the form of suppositories in dosages of 3, 6 and 12 mg. If the doctor's instructions are followed, the drug increases the body's resistance to infectious diseases, that is, active production of antibodies occurs, which have a positive effect on the immune system.

Polyoxidonium suppositories should not be used if renal failure is diagnosed, and if the body is hypersensitive to the components of the drug.

Candles "Betadine"

The broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent Betadine is used to treat diseases caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses, spores and other protozoan single-celled organisms. Vaginal suppositories are used for chlamydia, vaginitis, trichomoniasis, bacterial vaginosis, etc. The main active ingredient is povidone-iodine, and the auxiliary component is Macrogol 1000.

Since the drug has a powerful disinfectant and antiseptic effect, after the first minute of administration, Betadine suppositories for gonorrhea and chlamydia contribute to the death of fungi and other pathogens. According to the instructions for use, the drug does not penetrate deeply into the tissues of the genital organs, without being absorbed into the blood.

Vaginal suppositories should be taken with extreme caution by patients with chronic renal failure, those receiving lithium-based drug therapy, and patients with impaired thyroid function. Treatment of chlamydia with Betadine suppositories can be used as an antiseptic before surgical procedures.

Candles "Viferon"

The drug is used to treat patients with respiratory viral and inflammatory infectious diseases, namely pneumonia, meningitis, influenza, sepsis, hepatitis C, D, B. Suppositories are used for chlamydia in women, as well as for candidiasis, mycoplasmosis, herpes and cytomegaly.

The main active ingredient of the suppositories is recombinant human interferon alpha-2b. The auxiliary components include ascorbic acid, tocopherol acetate, etc. It is worth noting that the use of Viferon suppositories for chlamydia is allowed from the 14th week of pregnancy and during lactation. The drug is contraindicated in those patients who have individual sensitivity to the components of Viferon. In fairly rare cases, an allergic reaction in the form of skin rashes and itching sensations may occur.

Candles "Genferon"

The immunomodulator is prescribed by doctors in the form of an antibacterial and antiviral agent. In most cases, Genferon suppositories are used in the complex treatment of various infectious diseases of the genital organs in both women and men. The drug consists of several active ingredients - taurine, recombinant human interferon alpha and anesthesin.

Suppositories for chlamydia can also be used by patients to treat genital herpes, gardnerellosis, vaginal candidiasis, mycoplasmosis, trichomoniasis and ureaplasmosis. Doctors do not recommend using suppositories:

• if hypersensitivity to any component of the suppositories has been noticed;
• if the patient does not suffer from allergic and autoimmune diseases that are in the acute phase.

Side effects

A negative reaction of the body in case of an overdose or with high sensitivity to chlamydia suppositories is quite rare, only in 1% of cases of their use. Side effects appear in the form of the following reaction:

• itching sensations in the vagina;
• copious discharge;
• burning of the mucous membrane of the genital organs;
• redness of the skin.

Please note that all of the above symptoms disappear within 3 days after stopping the use of vaginal and rectal suppositories. To avoid a negative reaction, you should follow your doctor's instructions.

After treatment for chlamydia

For both men and women, after undergoing a course of treatment for chlamydia with vaginal and rectal suppositories, a repeat examination is indicated. Already 2-3 weeks after antibacterial treatment, it is necessary to undergo tests, the results of which will help determine whether the therapy was effective. In the case where the pathogen is not found in the body, we can talk about recovery. In another situation, doctors may prescribe re-treatment.

Interaction with other drugs

In most cases, suppositories for chlamydia are compatible and go well with almost all drugs that can be used to treat chlamydia. These may be antibiotics, immunomodulators and other types of medications.

The use of interferons simultaneously with other antiviral or antimicrobial agents mutually enhances each other's effectiveness. In addition, the effect of interferons increases in combination with tocopherol or ascorbic acid.

Chlamydia is an infectious disease caused by pathogenic microorganisms - chlamydia. According to WHO data, as well as numerous foreign and domestic studies, this is the most common sexually transmitted pathology.

Every year, about 100 ml of newly ill people are registered all over the world, and if we count them together, even according to the most conservative estimates, this figure will be about 1 billion. In this regard, modern venereology is looking for new ways to treat such a problem.

For this purpose, new drugs are being created aimed at destroying the pathogen and eliminating unpleasant symptoms, among which rectal and vaginal suppositories for chlamydia in women stand out. Let's tell you more about them.

This sexually transmitted disease is transmitted during unprotected sexual intercourse. After entering the body, chlamydia penetrates the cell and begins to actively multiply.

Depending on the state of immunity, the speed of development of symptoms will also depend; most often the disease is asymptomatic or mild. With normal immune defense, the pathology goes into a “dormant” state, i.e. the person does not experience discomfort, but at the same time is a carrier of the infection and poses a threat to a healthy sexual partner.

In other situations, the incubation period can range from 2 to 30 days, after which mucopurulent or mucous discharge of a yellowish tint with an unpleasant odor appears.

In this situation, the doctor prescribes symptomatic treatment with suppositories, and there are two important rules for their use:

1. At the very beginning, vaginal suppositories that are antibacterial or antiviral are used.
2. It is also very important to purchase suppositories that have an immunostimulating effect and restore the vaginal microflora.

Since chlamydia is highly resistant to drugs of one type, a specialist prescribes a whole course of medications from various pharmacological groups to effectively treat the disease.

What is the treatment plan?

The greatest effectiveness of the drug is achieved only when used correctly:

1. Rectal suppositories are best used in the evening after preliminary bowel movements. In some cases, cleansing enemas are required. The general course of treatment is about 10-14 days. As a rule, such drugs have practically no restrictions.
2. Before introducing vaginal suppositories, it is necessary to carry out hygienic procedures for the external genital organs, preferably with douching with medicinal decoctions or antiseptic drugs (do not get carried away, because when douching, both the bad microflora of the vagina and the normal one are washed away, which leads to an imbalance). Candles are used in the morning or evening before bed. After administration, you should lie down for 15-20 minutes to completely dissolve the medication and prevent it from leaking out. On average, the course duration is about 14-21 days. In a chronic process, it can drag on and continue until the patient fully recovers.

If necessary, a second course of therapy is prescribed, and the frequency and dose of drug administration is determined according to individual parameters.

Attention: do not forget about the storage conditions of the medicine. All suppositories that have antiviral and immunostimulating effects should be stored at a temperature no higher than 2-8 degrees. Antiseptic agents should be placed in a place protected from light with a temperature not exceeding 25C.

Which candles are the most popular?

You should immediately prepare that treatment of chlamydia involves a long and difficult process with a long subsequent recovery.

Prescribed suppositories as local therapy are divided into two types:

1. Antiviral and immunostimulating. They increase the level of white blood cells in the blood and thereby promote the synthesis of antibodies to combat the inflammatory process. They also actively destroy the cell membranes of the infection.
2. Antiseptic. They neutralize the harmful effects of infection locally, that is, directly in the affected area.

Suppositories against chlamydia have a number of advantages:

• they are easy to use;
• most of them are not absorbed into the general bloodstream or enter there in small quantities, which significantly reduces the list of contraindications for use;
• they need to be used only 1-2 times a day;
• rarely cause any side effects.

Only the attending physician decides which drug is needed based on the severity of the clinical picture, the tests obtained, the presence of concomitant infections, etc. Local therapy has many nuances.

For example, immunostimulating suppositories are produced for rectal administration, so they are prescribed to both women and men. Antiseptic suppositories are intended for vaginal use.

Most often, getting rid of a sexually transmitted infection begins with drugs that activate the body's protective functions. This includes Genferon, Viferon, Polyoxidonium.

They must be used from the very first day of taking antibacterial agents. Then, after 2-3 days, antiseptic suppositories are included in the therapy. These are Betadine, Chlorhexidine, Hexicon.

Let's look at the most popular versions of treating the disease in detail:

However, we must not forget that rectal or vaginal suppositories are symptomatic treatment; complete recovery depends on an integrated approach and correctly selected medications.

So, together with the prescription of suppositories, the following medications are used:

• hepatoprotectors;
• medications with hyaluronidase;
• physiotherapeutic actions using ultrasound and laser-magnetic devices;
• immunotherapeutic correction using multivitamins and antioxidants;
• baths with antiseptic agents.

We also do not forget that the second sexual partner also needs treatment, otherwise all the actions taken will be absolutely useless.

Attention: the use of drugs containing interferon significantly increases the effectiveness of antiviral drugs, and especially in combination with drugs that contain ascorbic acid and tocopherol.

Is treatment possible during pregnancy and lactation?

Every woman, before conceiving a child, should plan this event well. To do this, you must definitely go through all the specialists and get tested, including for hidden infections.

This will help avoid future problems that may unexpectedly occur while carrying a baby. If pregnancy has occurred, but the tests have not been taken, this is already done immediately after visiting the gynecologist.

As we have already said, chlamydia often prefers a latent form of progression and is activated in the presence of unfavorable factors. During pregnancy, the body devotes a lot of energy to the growth and development of the child, and, therefore, becomes quite vulnerable.

It is this time that brings many problems with unresolved infections. is subject to mandatory treatment, since pathogenic microorganisms have a negative effect on the fetus and can cause intrauterine death of the baby.

Half of the medications are contraindicated for use, but several options remain that claim to be prescribed:

1. Hexicon. This is the safest medicine, because the chlorhexidine contained in the composition is a substance included in the list of permitted substances during pregnancy and lactation.
2. Betadine. It is prescribed with extreme caution, and only in the first trimester, since povidone-iodine is able to penetrate the placental barrier.
3. Viferon. This remedy treats chlamydia, regardless of the stage of pregnancy. It can also be prescribed for the treatment and prevention of viral infections.
4. Genferon. Use is indicated from the beginning of the second trimester of gestation.

Pregnancy is a tender and joyful period in the life of any woman, so such a word as self-medication should be completely absent. Before using any medications, you should always consult your doctor.

Contraindications and side effects

Of course, each drug differs in its therapeutic focus and has specific features, one of which is a list of contraindications.

We analyzed the suppositories presented and formed a general picture of the limitations:

• allergic reactions to certain components included in the medicine;
• renal failure;
• autoimmune diseases during exacerbation;
• sometimes lactation or pregnancy.

The appearance of allergic reactions was observed in only 1% of patients, since suppositories rarely cause side effects. Most often this happens after prolonged use of one type of drug.

The main post-therapeutic unpleasant symptoms include:

• the appearance of rashes in the area of ​​the external genitalia;
• changes in vaginal microflora;
• redness on the mucous membrane of the labia;
• burning and itching;
• cheesy discharge is possible.

If such signs are observed, you should consult a doctor as soon as possible. Perhaps in this situation a course correction is required in the form of reducing the dosage or changing the drug.

Attention: a particular serious consequence of prolonged chlamydia is an autoimmune disease such as arthritis.

Chlamydia is a rather unpleasant phenomenon that can suddenly appear after unwise sexual intercourse. This means promiscuity, neglect of barrier methods of contraception, infidelity to your significant other, etc. When entering into an intimate relationship, always remember that although chlamydia is a sexually transmitted problem, it is treatable and does not pose any particular danger at the very beginning diseases.

But in our time, in addition to this pathogen, there are other more serious enemies that cause irreparable damage to health. That is why always remember the rules of sexual behavior, go for examinations, get tested and never self-medicate if alarming symptoms appear.

Treatment of chlamydia

Chlamydia does not go away on its own

Despite the fact that we live in a civilized society, where the culture of a healthy body and spirit is brought up in more than one generation, some representatives of the stronger and weaker sex believe that sexually transmitted diseases can go away on their own. As a result, when the acute symptoms of the disease subside, many patients calm down, confident that everything has passed. However, the disease does not disappear anywhere, but becomes chronic. As for chlamydia, its pathogen spreads throughout the body, and often affects not only the genital and urinary organs, but can penetrate the joints and membranes of the eyes. As a result, after a few months, consequences such as arthritis, prostatitis, impotence and infertility, as well as blindness, may occur.

Why are antibiotics needed?

Chlamydia and immunity

With chlamydia, one's own defenses are often reduced. Thus, the patient experiences various disturbances in the functioning of the immune system, and the treatment process takes longer, not always successfully. Therefore, the doctor in a comprehensive treatment of chlamydia prescribes immunomodulators, in particular interferon preparations. A modern medicine from the group of recombinant interferons is the drug Viferon, which contains alpha-2b interferon - a natural protein compound that can correct protective mechanisms. In addition, it has the ability to prevent intracellular reproduction of chlamydia, as well as block their further spread. Specific doses and duration of therapy are discussed during a face-to-face consultation.

What other treatment is needed?

As a result of exposure to antibiotics, the properties of opportunistic flora in the body may change, in particular, fungi may form in large quantities, and as a result, candidiasis and dysbacteriosis develop. In such cases, the specialist supplements the treatment regimen for chlamydia with drugs that activate enzymes necessary to restore membrane permeability in damaged cells. The nonspecific drug VIFERON® prevents the attachment and penetration of chlamydia into cells by eliminating damage to cell membranes. In addition, when using it, it is possible to safely use antibiotics in smaller course dosages. Treatment of chlamydia includes local procedures, which include instillation of antiseptic solutions (introduction of liquid medicinal substances directly into the diseased organ).

What you need after treatment

After therapy, a recovery period begins, characterized by healing of the affected organs. At this stage, vitamin complexes, medications with lacto- and bifidobacteria, as well as drugs that regulate liver function can help. In addition, you will need to undergo testing to ensure that chlamydia is cured. What is laboratory diagnostics used for? The DIF (direct immunofluorescence) and PCR (polymerase chain reaction) methods can detect the pathogen in epithelial cells or blood lymphocytes. The use of at least two different methods is necessary to exclude false positive results. In addition, it is necessary to be examined three times: 3–4 weeks after treatment, then after 3 and 6 months. Only after three negative tests for chlamydia can we say that chlamydia has been cured.

Suppositories for chlamydia in women are one of the common forms of medications used to treat this unpleasant disease. More often they are used in combination with other medications and procedures. Despite the fact that you can buy drugs of this class at any pharmacy without presenting a prescription, their uncontrolled use is still not recommended. What suppositories exist for chlamydial infection and what effect do they have?

You may not be cured if you use only the most effective suppositories for chlamydia in treatment, but only increase the resistance of pathogens. Candles for this delicate problem have an effect depending on the active ingredients included in the composition:

1. Interferons (Viferon, Genferon, Polyoxidonium) are drugs with immunomodulatory effects and are stimulants of the body's defense mechanisms. By activating the production of leukocytes, they help eliminate inflammatory processes and normalize the production of antigens. In addition, interferons negatively affect chlamydia cells.
2. Antiseptics (Betadine, Povidone-Iodine, Iodoxin, Hexicon, Chlorhexidine Bigluconate, Amident) - these suppositories for chlamydia contribute to the death of chlamydia. Their active substances penetrate microbial cells, disrupt their activity, and suppress their ability to reproduce. They are considered effective for treating sexually transmitted infections.

Suppositories for chlamydia are intended for vaginal administration. The active components of the suppositories are absorbed through the vaginal mucosa, but their penetration into the circulatory system is insignificant. The medicine is removed from the body through the bile ducts and less through the urinary system.

Men with this disease are prescribed rectal suppositories; in this case, the active substances are absorbed through the rectum and immediately enter the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. Within an hour after use, the concentration of medicinal ingredients increases. Their number gradually decreases, after 12 hours the next dosage is required.

Pregnancy period

Chlamydial infection in pregnant women cannot be called a rare disease, so the issue of using suppositories in this group of patients is quite relevant. If we evaluate the risks to the fetus from taking antibiotics in the form of tablets and from suppositories, then in the latter case they are much lower.

What vaginal suppositories are indicated for women with chlamydia? Here are a few titles, but with some recommended features:

• Genferon - allowed for use only in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters;
• Viferon - also allowed to be used after 12-14 weeks and during the lactation period;
• Hexicon is a safe product that can be used at all stages of pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

Experts have different opinions about the need for treatment of the disease during this difficult period. This once again proves that self-treatment is not acceptable.

Contraindications

Almost all suppositories for the treatment of chlamydia have similar contraindications:

• intolerance to substances included in the product;
• allergic manifestations;
• diseases of autoimmune origin during exacerbation;
• in case of serious impairment of renal function.

Most suppositories are not intended for use during pregnancy and lactation. Any chronic disease, even during remission, requires prior consultation with a specialist before using medications. Studying the attached instructions will help you avoid all sorts of troubles.

As for side effects, they occur in less than 1% of cases of their use. These may be signs of an allergy: redness of the skin, mucous membranes, itching in the vaginal or anal area, burning, mucous discharge. In most cases, all signs disappear within 3 days after the drug is discontinued.

Mode of application

Vaginal suppositories for chlamydia are inserted deep into the vagina. The daily dosage is set by the attending physician depending on the condition and severity of the pathology. To prevent the product from leaking, it is better to administer it in a supine position. After use, it is recommended to lie on your back for 30-40 minutes, this will allow the active components to be absorbed and not leak out.

The use of candles can be one-time (mainly at night), or 2 times - in the morning and evening hours. The duration of therapy varies depending on the stage of the disease and the individual characteristics of the body - from 7 to 21 days.

If we are talking about chronic chlamydia, then suppositories can be prescribed for a long course - up to 2.5-3 months, the daily dose is prescribed individually.

Rectal suppositories for chlamydia are usually prescribed to representatives of the stronger sex. The daily dose is also set individually. The minimum therapeutic course is 1.5 weeks, the maximum is 3.5 weeks.

In some cases, the specialist decides to prescribe re-treatment; its timing and dosage of the drug are considered individually.

Additional Information

There are a number of peculiarities of taking suppositories with other medications. When taking antiviral or antimicrobial drugs simultaneously with interferon suppositories, a mutual enhancement of effectiveness occurs. In addition, the effect of interferons improves when they are combined with tocopherols or products containing ascorbic acid.

There is no information about how suppositories react to other drugs. It is recommended to store drugs in this form in the refrigerator, the temperature should be within +2-+8 Celsius. Candles cannot be frozen.

Like all medications, the storage location should be out of reach of children and pets. The shelf life is indicated on the packaging, on average it is 2 years. Experts warn that the treatment course can be completely ineffective if it is interrupted from time to time, or if the suppositories are replaced without consultation with others, even with a similar composition.

It is better for both men and women to abstain from sexual contact during therapy. If all recommendations are followed, the prognosis for cure is positive.
