Names of vaginal and rectal suppositories with antibiotics

Suppositories with antibiotics are highly effective in the complex treatment of diseases of the genitourinary system. Due to the predominantly combined composition, suppositories can have not only local antibacterial, but also analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antiseptic effects.

Antibiotic suppositories can be used for vaginitis, vulvovaginitis, cervicitis, prevention of septic complications before hysterography, cervical cauterization, before and after abortion, etc. For men, rectal suppositories with antibiotics are prescribed for the complex treatment of bacterial prostatitis. Topical medications cannot replace systemic antibacterial therapy, but they can significantly speed up the healing process and alleviate the patient’s condition. Some suppositories for prostatitis with antibiotics additionally contain components that help normalize microcirculation in the prostate gland, reduce swelling and eliminate congestion.

Indications for use

Vaginal suppositories are prescribed both as part of a drug treatment regimen and when prescribing a surgical intervention, before and after it. They are prescribed to treat many gynecological pathologies of an inflammatory nature, including:

• extensive cervicitis affecting the entire cervix;
• inflammation of the cervical canal;
• pseudo-erosion complicated by various infections;
• before and after surgical treatment of inflammatory processes in the cervix;
• as a sanitizing agent before surgery.

The advantage of using drugs in the form of suppositories is as follows:

• the effect of using the medicine in suppositories occurs very quickly;
• the active substance is delivered directly to the affected area;

Candles for colds in women's style and their names

The expression “cold” is not entirely applicable to inflammatory diseases of the genital organs. The cause of the inflammatory process is not always a cold, that is, hypothermia. The inflammation is usually caused by a bacterial or fungal infection.

Suppositories used in gynecology often contain components such as indomethacin, ketoprofen and diclofenac. They fall under the category of NSAIDs. These drugs often have an advantage over steroid drugs, since the latter, being hormonal drugs, can change the hormonal background of the female body. Suppositories with NSAIDs have three effects at once - reducing pain, inflammation and fever.

Suppositories used in gynecology often contain components such as indomethacin, ketoprofen and diclofenac.

Positive effects of candles

Treatment with suppositories is most often auxiliary against the background of more powerful therapy to restore normal vaginal microflora. With their help, you can quickly eliminate the uncomfortable symptoms of cervical inflammation and achieve the following results:

• inflammation is relieved;
• the activity of the infectious agent that provoked the inflammatory process decreases;
• the affected epithelial layer is removed;
• the release of vaginal secretions is normalized;
• pain syndrome is relieved;
• regeneration processes are activated.

Suppositories have a preventive effect, preventing the penetration of infectious agents into the mucous membrane.

Betadine

Vaginal suppositories, the main component of which is povidone-iodine. This component destroys protozoa, staphylococci, E. coli and Candida fungi. Betadine does not affect only Koch's bacillus.

Since Betadine contains iodine, it is contraindicated for thyroid pathologies. Other contraindications are childhood, use of radioactive iodine preparations, dermatitis herpetiformis. The course of treatment is 7 days. Every day, one suppository is used, which must be inserted at night. During menstruation, the course of treatment can not be interrupted. The drug can be used during pregnancy and lactation.

Species and representatives

Suppositories for cervical inflammation often have a potent effect, so their prescription should be done exclusively by a specialist who takes into account not only the severity of the pathology and the type of infectious agent, but also the general condition of the patient.

Let's consider the main pharmacological groups of drugs in the form of suppositories that can be prescribed for cervicitis, and also list the names of their main representatives.

Antifungal

Often, against the background of bacterial or viral cervicitis, a conditionally pathogenic microflora begins to grow in a woman’s vagina, as evidenced by the results of PCR scraping.

Symptoms of candidiasis may be completely absent, but even in this case, the doctor may prescribe antifungal drugs based on miconazole, econazole, iconazole, ciclopirox, sertaconazole and clotrimazole. These include:

• Ginesol;
• Dafnedjin;
• Irunin;
• Candide;
• Kadizol;
• Lomencin;
• Livarol;
• Zalain;
• Gyno-digester;
• Ecofucin;
• Primafungin;
• Pimafucin.

In some cases, drugs are prescribed for prophylactic purposes against the background of antibiotic therapy to prevent the development of thrush. Suppositories should be used for at least a week.

Antiviral

If the inflammation is of a viral nature, it is mandatory to prescribe medications that will enhance the woman’s immunity and thereby help destroy viral pathogens. Representatives are Acyclovir and Viferon suppositories; they must be used for at least 2 weeks in a row. The drugs are prescribed when genital herpes and HPV are detected as part of complex therapy.

Hormonal

If the inflammatory process becomes chronic, the cervical mucosa may become thinner and completely atrophy. Hormonal suppositories based on estrogen help to cope with the problem. They promote rapid healing of the mucous membrane of the uterine cervix and restoration of hormonal levels. Hormonal drugs Estriol and Ovestin are used.

Suppositories containing estradiol restore the pH level in the vagina and strengthen the natural barrier, which reduces the risk of recurrence of the inflammatory process.

Hormonal suppositories need to be used for a long period, since their main component has a short-term effect and is not able to accumulate in epithelial cells, which helps prevent hyperplastic processes, especially during the elimination of inflammation in menopausal women.

Antibacterial

If cervicitis is caused by pathogenic microbes, then based on the results of bacterial culture and determination of sensitivity to antibiotics, the following may be prescribed:

• Terzhinan;
• Hexicon;
• Betadine;
• Metronadazole, etc.

The duration of treatment will depend on the severity of the pathology and ranges from 7 to 14 weeks.

Painkillers

The main drug that is prescribed for cervicitis to relieve pain is Terzhinan; it not only has an analgesic effect, but also relieves inflammation. You cannot prescribe the remedy yourself; you may worsen your condition.

Healing

To complete the treatment of cervicitis or speed up the process of tissue restoration after surgery, the gynecologist may prescribe healing suppositories based on herbal or synthetic components. Most often, drugs based on panthenol are prescribed. This is a regenerating and anti-inflammatory component, which is a B vitamin. Depantol suppositories are a representative, they are active even with bloody-purulent discharge.

Sea buckthorn suppositories have a natural healing effect. These berries contain a large supply of carotenoids, which promote active tissue healing and relieve inflammation. Sea buckthorn suppositories are taken in courses of 8-12 pieces.

Restoring microflora

In order to prevent the re-growth of pathogenic microflora and the activation of viruses, the course of treatment for cervicitis must necessarily contain drugs that normalize the vaginal microflora. To ensure that there is a sufficient amount of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in the vagina, forming a natural barrier between the external environment and the genital tract for invading infectious agents, the following drugs are prescribed when treating cervicitis:

• Acylact;
• Biphilis;
• Bifidumbacterin;
• Vaginorm;
• Lactobacterin;
• Lactonorm;
• Lactozhinal;
• Ecofemin;
• Femidex;
• Lactriol.

On average, it may take about two weeks to normalize the state of the vaginal microflora.

Immunomodulatory

The drugs suppress viral replication and increase local immunity. They are often prescribed for genital herpes and HPV. Unfortunately, it is difficult to treat such a pathology, since such viruses are able to integrate into the genome of human cells, but with the help of suppositories these pathogens can be suppressed and sent into a kind of hibernation. Viral cervicitis is typical for women with weakened immunity, chronic gynecological problems and vaginal dysbiosis.

Since HPV is dangerous and can provoke the development of cancer, when a viral form of cervicitis is detected, drugs are prescribed that correct the process of changing and regulating the components of immunity and activating immunocompetent cells. To achieve these goals, suppositories are prescribed:

• Genferon;
• Ruferon;
• Laferobion;
• Cycloferon;
• Kipferon;
• Viferon.

These are immunomodulatory drugs, as for immunostimulating suppositories, their prominent representative is Polyoxidonium, which is used for 10-20 days, and then the course of administration is repeated after another 3-4 months.

The drugs can be used rectally and vaginally.

Combined

To achieve a quick effect in the treatment of inflammation, combination drugs are often prescribed, which simultaneously eliminate the inflammatory process, inhibit the growth of pathogens, promote tissue regeneration and normalize the level of microflora. The main active ingredients of the drugs:

• Polymyxin, Neomycin is a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent that shows good results in the fight against the vast majority of microbes, disinfects and contributes not only to the suppression of pathogenic microflora, but to its complete elimination;
• Ornidazole, Teridazole. The components fight fungi and protozoa; they are prescribed for inflammatory processes provoked by gardnerella and trichomonas;
• Prednisolone. The component shows good results in the treatment of chronic cervicitis;
• Nystatin is a drug that prevents the proliferation of fungus from the genus Candida;
• Chlorhexidine is an antimicrobial agent that quickly destroys almost all groups of pathogenic organisms.

The concentration of components in combination drugs may vary; they are included in the following drugs:

• Terzhinan;
• Amintax;
• Polygynax;
• Hexicon;
• Depantol.

The course of therapy can last from 6 to 9 days, and the number of doses can be either 1 suppository per day or 2, it all depends on the severity of the pathology.

Most often, combined drugs are prescribed to treat inflammation against the background of erosion, but only in its early stages, when the likelihood of developing oncology is excluded.

Polygynax

Polygynax is a combination drug that has antimycotic and bactericidal effects. The drug contains nystatin (an antifungal agent), the antibiotics neomycin and polymyxin B. The drug is active against:

• Staphylococcus aureus;
• protea;
• Klebsiella;
• coli;
• Pseudomonas aeruginosa;
• Koch's sticks;
• ureaplasma;
• Candida fungi.

The drug does not work only on streptococci and anaerobic bacteria. The drug should not be used in the first trimester of pregnancy. Duration of treatment – ​​12 days. During menstruation, the course of treatment can not be interrupted.

Contraindications

If kidney or liver function is impaired, the antifungal drug should be used with caution. A combined drug with antifungal properties is widely used for various mycotic pathologies, in particular for thrush

"Gynocaps" is usually well tolerated and side symptoms occur if it is used for the following conditions:

A combined drug with antifungal properties is widely used for various mycotic pathologies, in particular for thrush. "Gynocaps" is usually well tolerated and side symptoms occur if it is used for the following conditions:

• impaired functioning of the kidneys and liver;
• intolerance to nitroimidazole derivatives;
• organic lesions of the central nervous system;
• hypersensitivity to the components of the medication;
• violation of movement coordination;
• lactation and pregnancy up to 13 weeks.

Compound

The main active ingredients are the following:

• Metronidazole, which has an antimicrobial and antiprotozoal effect. The action of this substance is aimed at destroying infections caused by anaerobic bacteria.
• Nystatin, penetrating the cell, quickly leads to the death of the pathogenic microorganism. Nystatin is most active against fungi of the genus Candida.
• Chloramphenicol, which has high activity against microbes, rickettsia, chlamys, spirochetes.
• Dexamethasone is a corticosteroid that is characterized by a pronounced anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effect. In addition, dexamethasone has a positive effect on energy metabolism. The hormone reduces the intensity of swelling on the mucous membrane and eliminates itching sensations.

This composition of Mikozhinax suppositories allows for a comprehensive effect on infectious diseases, eliminating symptoms as effectively as possible.

Hexicon

Vaginal suppositories containing a broad-spectrum antiseptic drug – chlorhexidine. Hexicon is active against chlamydia, ureaplasma, mycoplasma, gardnerella, gonococcus, trichomonas, treponema pallidum, most other microbes, herpes virus and candida fungi.

Chlorhexidine is not an antibiotic and therefore is not absorbed into the systemic circulation, acting exclusively on the surface of the vagina. Allowed during pregnancy, lactation and childhood. The course of treatment is 10 days. To protect against sexually transmitted infections, the suppository must be inserted into the vagina no later than 2 hours after sexual intercourse.

Interaction with other drugs

If you need to take it together with other medications, consult your doctor first.

Enhances the effect of indirect antigoagulants (warfarin), oral hypoglycemic drugs, phenytoin; it is not recommended to combine with non-depolarizing muscle relaxants (vecuronium).

The simultaneous use of metronidazole with disulfiram can lead to the development of neurological symptoms (metronidazole should not be prescribed to patients who have taken disulfiram within the last 2 weeks).

When used simultaneously with lithium preparations, the concentration of the latter in plasma may increase.

Phenobarbital accelerates the metabolism of metronidazole due to the induction of microsomal liver enzymes; cimetidine - reduces, which can lead to an increase in its concentration in the blood serum and an increased risk of side effects.

Video about suppositories for ovarian inflammation in women

The best vaginal suppositories for inflammation:

Suppositories for ovarian inflammation are most often prescribed by a gynecologist. However, not all patients know the types and purposes of suppositories. Inflammation of the ovaries (oophoritis) and appendages (salpingoophoritis) is caused by bacteria, viruses or fungi. The treatment method is complex and includes getting rid of the source of infection, relieving inflammation, relieving pain, restoring flora, and preventing the occurrence of adhesions.

Suppositories play an important role in treatment for inflammation of the ovaries.

Side effects

As indicated in the instructions, Mikozhinax suppositories in case of overdose can cause negative reactions such as burning, itching and irritation of the vaginal mucosa. The drug may also contribute to the development of the following conditions:

• From the gastrointestinal tract: diarrhea, vomiting, stool disturbances, pain in the stomach, inflammation of the oral mucosa, loss of appetite. The symptoms of pancreatitis and hepatitis may worsen.
• From the central nervous system: convulsions, headache, dizziness. Hallucinations, mental disorders, and even depression may occur. Gait is often disturbed and disorientation in space and tremors of the limbs appear.
• Circulatory system. In some cases, the development of leukopenia is observed, which is a good reason for developing a new drug treatment regimen.

According to the instructions, Mikozhinax suppositories, the price of which is relatively low, in case of overdose provoke the development of an allergic reaction in the form of all kinds of skin rashes, hyperemia, skin itching and, in severe situations, Quincke's edema or anaphylactic shock.

In addition, patients may experience the following conditions during treatment:

• dark brown coloration of urine;
• blurred vision;
• the appearance of hallucinations;
• frequent dizziness;
• disorder of movement coordination, balance.

Hormonal drugs

With chronic inflammation of the cervix, the mucous membrane thins and atrophies. Hormonal suppositories can quickly solve this problem. The structure and function can be restored with the help of a certain hormone that will act directly at the site of inflammation. This hormone is estrogen.

The introduction of suppositories with estrogen helps to quickly restore the mucous membrane of the cervix, and with long-term use of hormonal drugs (Estriol, Ovestin), the inflammatory process is eliminated and the hormonal balance returns to normal.

In addition, suppositories containing estradiol allow you to restore the vaginal pH and natural biological barrier. As a result, the risk of re-development of the inflammatory process is significantly reduced.

Hormonal suppositories are used in long courses, since they have a short effect and estrogen does not accumulate in epithelial cells, which prevents the development of hyperplasia (this is especially important when treating a chronic inflammatory process in women during menopause).

How to brew chamomile for douching?
