Clinical Pharmacology
Contraceptive local (spermicidal) agent, also has an antiseptic, antifungal, antiprotozoal effect; inactivates the Herpes simplex virus. It shows bactericidal activity against staphylococci, streptococci, gram-negative bacteria (intestinal and pseudomonas bacilli, gonococci, Proteus, Klebsiella and others), anaerobic bacteria, fungi and molds. It acts on bacteria strains resistant to antibiotics and other chemotherapeutic drugs; suppresses plasma coagulase and staphylococcal hyaluronidase. The spermicidal effect is due to the ability to damage the sperm membranes (at the beginning of the flagella, then the head), which makes it impossible to fertilize the damaged spermatozoon. The effect develops 5 minutes after the introduction of the vaginal suppository. It is active in the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases (gonorrhea, chlamydia, trichomoniasis). It does not affect the normal microflora of the vagina (including the Doderlein wand) and the hormonal cycle.
