Pharmatex
is used to avoid pregnancy, but does not provide 100% protection. Contraceptive effect of the medicine depends primarily on its correct use.
This contraceptive is particularly suitable in the following cases: – contraindications to the use of oral contraceptives or intrauterine devices; – having rare sexual intercourses; – after delivery or abortion; – during breast-feeding; – prior to menopause; – if you missed a dose of a permanent oral birth control. In the latter case, use Pharmatex with oral tablets until the end of the menstrual cycle. Can also be used in addition to an intrauterine device.
Ingredients: The active substance is benzalkonium chloride. One vaginal suppository contains 18.9mg of active substance benzalkonium chloride. The excipients are: hydroxy propyl cellulose, semisynthetic glyceride (Witepsol S51).
