How Should I Use This Product? This product is for adults and children 12 years of age and over. For children under 12 years, ask a doctor. Directions for using the Applicators containing Vaginal Cream: Begin treatment before going to bed: 1 Remove the prefilled applicator from the wrapper. 2 Unscrew and remove violet cap from prefilled applicator. 3 Insert plunger into prefilled applicator by placing small end of plunger into the ribbed end of the applicator. 4 Gently insert the applicator into the vagina as far as it will go comfortably. This can be done while lying on your back with your knees bent (as shown in the picture) or while standing with your feet apart and your knees bent. 5 With one hand holding the barrel use the other hand to push the plunger as far into the barrel as it will go. Remove both parts of the applicator from the vagina. 6 Throw the applicator away after use. Do not flush it down the toilet. 7 Lie down as soon as possible after inserting the cream. This will reduce leakage. 8 Repeat steps 1 through 7 before going to bed for the next 2 days. You may want to use deodorant-free minipads or pantyshields to protect your clothing during the time that you are using this product. This is because the cream can leak or you may get some discharge. Do not use tampons,douches, or spermicides until after you have completed treatment and your symptoms are gone. image 1 Image 2
