What type of tablets are designed to be inserted into the vagina?

Vaginal tablets are specifically formulated for insertion into the vagina. They usually contain medication that is intended to treat local conditions, such as infections, or to provide hormone therapy. The design and composition of these tablets allow them to dissolve and release their active ingredients effectively within the vaginal environment.

In contrast, effervescent tablets are made to dissolve in liquid to create a fizzy solution and are not meant for vaginal use. Buccal tablets are designed to be placed between the gum and cheek, allowing for absorption through the mucous membranes into the bloodstream. Sublingual tablets dissolve under the tongue for rapid absorption into systemic circulation, which is different from the localized treatment that vaginal tablets provide. Therefore, the choice of vaginal tablets aligns perfectly with the intended route and purpose of administration.
