Composition

The medicinal substance of the Geksikon suppositories is chlorohexidine bi-gluconate in the amount of 16 mg in each individual dose (suppository). Additional working components: polyethylene oxide (1500) and (400). These substances form the mass of the suppository (3.1 g) and ensure its uniform melting inside the body.

Efficiency

Chlorine-hexidine bi-gluconate is an antispeptic agent that has a bactericidal effect, destroying bacteria. The mechanism of its action is that it destroys cell membranes by osmotic dissociation, that is, it promotes their disintegration into ions.

The drug is effective against many infectious bacteria, while it is useless for the treatment of viruses, acid-resistant microorganisms, fungi. In the vagina, the Hexicon suppository melts, enveloping the mucous membrane, while not being absorbed into the bloodstream.

The drug Geksikon is used against such bacterial infections:

Suppositories work well even in the presence of pus and blood. Suppositories can also be used during menstruation.

The drug Geksikon, in addition to the antibacterial, has a spermicidal effect. Therefore, it can be used before intercourse - not only for the prevention of genital infection, but also as a contraceptive. However, it should be borne in mind that the constant use of suppositories as a countermeasure to conception is not provided for in the instructions for use.

Indications for use

Geksikon suppositories (instructions for the use of suppositories describe their use in therapy and prophylactic treatment against diseases arising from infection through sexual contact) can be used in different circumstances.

For example:

In case of fungal diseases (candidiasis), Geksikon suppositories are not used, due to their ineffectiveness.

The effectiveness of the use of Geksikon suppositories for the prevention and in the complex therapy of many well-known bacterial infections, such as gonorrhea, gardanerella, chlamydia, syphilis, trichomoniasis, genital herpes, mycoplasmosis, ureaplasmosis, has been repeatedly proven in practice.

But suppositories are also used as a disinfectant to prevent possible inflammatory complications before research, childbirth, cleaning, and surgery.

Contraindications for use

Candles should not be used in cases:

• individual intolerance;
• pronounced sensitivity of mucous membranes to substances contained in suppositories;
• for the treatment of children under 12 years of age (there is a special children's drug Geksikon D for them);
• the presence of dermatitis.

Suppositories are used only for the treatment of female diseases. Before you start taking suppositories, you should test the drug for individual intolerance.

Method of administration and dosage

Suppositories are used by inserting them into the vagina.

They are used:

• to prevent infection with sexually transmitted infections: before intercourse or immediately after;
• for the treatment of various pathologies of the vagina with pathogenic bacteria: regular use is recommended for a ten-day course, with possible extension;
• for disinfection before the need for surgical intervention: appoint one candle for a period of two to three days.

The introduction of the suppository requires taking a horizontal position, preferably with a raised pelvis (you can put a pillow under it), followed by rest for one to two hours.

Geksikon suppositories are extremely convenient to use, as they do not require douching before use. However, increased vaginal discharge during the treatment period necessitates more intensive use of daily hygiene products (pads, tampons).

To increase the therapeutic effect of a course intake of Geksikon suppositories, it is recommended to avoid sexual intercourse, since their continuation during treatment can contribute to re-infection and reduce the effectiveness of the process.

Application during pregnancy and lactation

Hexicon candles (instructions for use allow the use of the product during pregnancy) are absolutely safe and do not affect either the mother's body or the fetus. The need for use can be caused by a weakening of immunity, changes in the vaginal microflora, due to the restructuring of the female body.

Such processes violate the immune system and allow infectious agents to infect the organs of the intimate sphere. If this is not stopped in time, then the accumulation of harmful biological forms exceeding the norm can negatively affect the fetus, infecting it.

The suppository dissolves inside the vagina, without getting into either the gastrointestinal tract, or the blood, or the placenta. To be sure that the drug Geksikon is completely safe, a woman can consult a specialist to identify allergic effects to the main active ingredients.

The general effect of exposure to suppositories is the formation of normal microflora in the vagina, which is important for the course of pregnancy without complications. Hesikon is also used after childbirth - it counteracts purulent pathologies that can occur on fresh sutures and in the unrecovered birth canal.

During the period of breastfeeding, the possible risks of genital infections increase, since the immune system does not immediately recover after childbirth. After all, the body's main resources are directed to lactation.

Since suppositories are not absorbed into the bloodstream, their use is permitted during breastfeeding. An exception may be allergic manifestations (itching, burning, rashes).

Dosages:

• for prophylactic purposes, Geksikon can be prescribed before childbirth to receive 1 suppository for 5 days;
• for the purpose of therapy, the drug is administered twice a day, one suppository each, freeing it from the plastic shell.

Method of administration during pregnancy: insert the suppository into the vagina to the depth of one finger, preferably lying down. For convenience, you can bend your knees. During the period of use of the suppository, hygiene is carried out without using soap (instead of it, you can use potassium permanganate in a weak solution).

For kids

For the treatment of girls from 6 months to the beginning of menstruation, Geksikon D suppositories are used. This drug has a twice-reduced dosage of the active substance. For children, candles are produced in the form of single doses weighing 8 mg of white color, with a consistency resembling paraffin. Candles are odorless. The box contains two plates with cells, 5 suppositories each.

As a positive factor in the use of the drug, one can name the absence of violations of the vaginal microflora. Remains of suppositories are excreted through the intestines.

For use, the Hexicon candle is removed from the cell and inserted into the vagina, after which it is recommended to lie down with a slightly raised pelvis. Usually two suppositories are prescribed per day. For the general course of admission, you will need 20 suppositories or two packages of the drug.

Can I use it during menstruation?

Since blood is alkaline, it can reduce the effectiveness of the suppository by neutralizing the environment it has created.

• the presence of itching;
• allergic skin reactions;

In this case, the side effects can be unexpected, such as staining the teeth. These symptoms do not apply to Geksikon suppositories, since suppositories are not intended for the treatment of dental diseases.
