Vaginal tablets are easy to use. They come with an applicator and a set of instructions to guide you.
You insert one tablet into the vagina every night for two weeks, and then twice weekly after this. There is an applicator to help with correct insertion of the pessary/ tablet.
A prescription is for 24 vaginal tablets (one packet) if you have not used this before, and 48 tablets (6 months) if a repeat prescription is being issued.
If this is your first time to use Vagifem, you should complete an initial course of treatment (one every night for 14 nights, then one twice weekly for the remainder of the packet) and if effective, arrange a repeat prescription for ongoing symptom relief.
