Hi i am currently 35wks pregnant . My husband is in the army and we live in germany so language barrier is a problem but I have found out i have a vaginal infection of e-coli. I have been prescribed Vagihex pesseries for 6days morning and night then Vagisan vaginal capsules for a further 10 days. Are there any side effects I should look out for? Sorry for question but info leaflets are in German. Many thanks

good evening to you...the vagihex pessaries that were given to you is basically for bacterial vaginal infection...it can sometimes cause mouth irritation,alteration in taste, and sometimes one may rarely get a rash at the site of application due to contact allergic dermatitis.... otherwise it doesnt have any other interaction..vaginax vaginal capsules basically contain lactic acid lactate...it mainly helps for replenishing the normal vaginal flora,which is essential to prevent infection...its not to be taken only if you are already known to have reaction to lactic acid....minor side effects can be redness and itching at the site in few individuals....otherwise not to worry...
