ABSTRACT:
A method for treating infections, bacterial, fungal and parasitic in origin, especially infections of organs such as the vagina and skin, is provided and involves administering to a patient in need thereof a composition comprising boric acid and acetic acid, in effective amounts. Such a composition is especially useful as a broad based treatment of vaginal infections of unknown bacterial or fungal origin and can be used without the need for medical diagnosis or while such a diagnosis is being determined. Such a composition is effective, safe, providing an alternative to existing forms of treatment which are toxic and is environmentally friendly.
