Boric Acid– Compounded Vaginal Preparations 
Boric acid is a familiar substance to many of us. It is found in many common household goods, but did you know that boric acid can be used as a safe and effective treatment?

Basic Facts 
Boric acid is a white powdery substance that belongs to a class of chemicals called Borates. Borates have been used for centuries in multiple uses such as food preservation, cleaning and medicine. Boric acid can be found in naturalmineral deposits all of the world, from the state of Nevada to Tuscany, Italy.

How does it work? 
In medicine, it works as an antiseptic by disrupting the cell membranes of microorganisms, such as bacteria and yeast.

Boric Acid can be found in many pharmaceutical preparations, such as:
    Ophthalmic (eye) solutions
    Vaginal capsules and suppositories
    Otic (ear) solutions
    Topicals for the skin

Vaginitis 
The most common boric acid preparations available are vaginal capsules and suppositories.Boric acid is often used for stubborn chronic candida vaginitis. Some women also turn to boric acid if they are allergic to other common treatments, such as nitroimidazole drugs.

Boric acid vaginal capsules and suppositories are easy to use and less messy than other types available on the market.
