Frequently Asked Questions about Gynazole-1
How do I use Gynazole-1?
Administer Gynazole-1 as a single dose by inserting one applicatorful (approximately 5 grams) of the cream into the vagina. This can be done at any time of day.
How quickly does Gynazole-1 work?
Most individuals experience symptom relief within 24 hours after using Gynazole-1. The medication is designed to remain in place and release slowly over four days. If symptoms persist beyond this period, consult your healthcare provider.
Can I use Gynazole-1 during my period?
Yes, you can use Gynazole-1 during menstruation. However, avoid using tampons, as they can interfere with the medication's effectiveness. Instead, use pads or panty liners during treatment and for 72 hours afterward.
Are there any side effects associated with Gynazole-1?
Some users may experience side effects such as vulvar or vaginal burning, itching, soreness, swelling, pelvic or abdominal pain, or cramping. These occurred in about 5.7% of patients during clinical trials. If you experience severe reactions or signs of an allergic reaction (e.g., hives, difficulty breathing, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat), seek immediate medical attention.
Can I have sexual intercourse while using Gynazole-1?
It's advisable to avoid sexual intercourse until the infection has cleared, as sexual activity can worsen symptoms and potentially transmit the infection to your partner.

Is Gynazole-1 safe to use during pregnancy?
The safety of Gynazole-1 during pregnancy has not been well established. Consult your healthcare provider before using this medication if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
What should I do if my symptoms persist after using Gynazole-1?
If symptoms persist or recur within two months, consult your healthcare provider. Persistent symptoms may indicate a more serious condition or a different type of infection requiring alternative treatment.
Are there any precautions regarding contraceptive devices?
Yes, Gynazole-1 contains mineral oil, which can weaken latex or rubber products such as condoms and diaphragms. Avoid using these contraceptive methods during treatment and for at least 72 hours after completing the dose to prevent reduced effectiveness.
How should I store Gynazole-1?
Store Gynazole-1 at room temperature, away from moisture and heat. Do not warm the applicator before use.
Can I use Gynazole-1 if I have frequent yeast infections?
If you experience frequent yeast infections (more than one per month), consult your healthcare provider. There may be underlying causes that need to be addressed, and your provider can recommend appropriate treatment options.
Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized medical advice and before starting any new treatment.
