Introduction
If itching is not severe during the use of Baofukang suppositories, discontinue the medication temporarily and clean the area with warm water for observation. In addition to stopping the medication, perform vaginal douching to flush out residual drug solution from the vagina. If the itching is severe due to an allergic reaction, antiallergic treatment with medications such as cetirizine tablets, diphenhydramine tablets, or loratadine tablets may be used under medical supervision to relieve symptoms.
Itching after using Baofukang suppositories may be caused by drug irritation or drug allergy. Relief can be achieved through observation, general treatment, or medication depending on the specific cause. Local hygiene should be maintained and sexual activity avoided to prevent further irritation. If symptoms do not improve, timely gynecological examination at a hospital is recommended to determine the cause and receive appropriate treatment. Specific approaches are as follows:
1. Observation
After using Baofukang suppositories, itching may occur due to local irritation from residual medication discharged during dissolution. If the itching is mild, discontinue the medication temporarily and clean the area with warm water for observation. Usually, no special treatment is required.
2. General Treatment
In some individuals, itching and discomfort may result from an allergic reaction to the medication. In addition to stopping the medication, timely vaginal irrigation should be performed to flush out residual drug components and alleviate symptoms of itching and discomfort.
3. Medication
If severe itching occurs due to an allergic reaction, antiallergic medications such as cetirizine tablets, diphenhydramine tablets, or loratadine tablets may be used under medical supervision to relieve symptoms.
It is recommended to strictly follow a doctor's guidance when using medication. Maintain good hygiene and care during treatment. If itching persists or worsens after discontinuing the medication, seek evaluation and treatment at a hospital's gynecology department to identify the underlying cause.
