ABSTRACT:
A composition for the treatment of vaginal yeast which promotes normal vaginal bacterial growth during treatment, comprising a yeast-inhibitory agent selected from one or more of the group consisting of ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and glycerol, an effectively buffered aqueous acetate solution and cells of a Lactobacillus species. In the composition the concentration of acetate is effective to establish a pH of the composition in the range of from about 5 to about 7, the presence of unionized acetate inhibits yeast selectively compared to the bacteria, and the proportions of the yeast inhibitory agent and the buffering solution are effective to allow the active yeast-inhibitor agent to inhibit the vaginal yeast Candida. A method of treatment of vaginal yeast while promoting normal vaginal bacterial growth, by intravaginal application of the composition described above, is disclosed.
