Fluomizin is a broad-spectrum, non-antibiotic antimicrobial (dequalinium chloride) used widely to treat bacterial vaginosis (BV) and aerobic vaginitis (AV).
It’s also one of the few BV and AV options considered suitable during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Benefits of Fluomizin
- 6 x 10mg dequalinium chloride tablets per pack
- Free global shipping
- Used for BV, AV and “mystery” infections/imbalances
- One-per-night vaginal dose — a 6-night course, repeated only if needed
- Non-toxic and poorly absorbed — can be used in pregnancy and breastfeeding if needed
- Effective against a range of BV and AV-causing microbes
- Non-antibiotic, non-resistance-forming
About dequalinium chloride
Dequalinium chloride, the active ingredient in Fluomizin, is an anti-infective and antiseptic, active against some of the bacteria that cause bacterial vaginosis.
Fluomizin is used to treat bacterial vaginosis, inserted into the vagina each night for six nights or as recommended by your healthcare provider.
Safety and warnings of Fluomizin
Do not use Fluomizin if:
- Have over 50% lactobacilli on a microbiome test
- You are allergic to dequalinium chloride or any of the other ingredients in the tablets
- You have vaginal or cervical ulcers
- You have never had a menstrual period
Warnings and precautions when using Fluomizin
- Do not use when trying to conceive around the fertile window
- Avoid intravaginal soap, spermicides and vaginal douches during treatment with Fluomizin.
- Unprotected intercourse while using Fluomizin or when you have bacterial vaginosis is not recommended.
- Fluomizin is safe to use with latex condoms, but may reduce the effectiveness of non-latex condoms or diaphragms. Use alternative methods of contraception for at least 12 hours following treatment.
- Stop using Fluomizin vaginally if you have heavy menstrual bleeding, and resume after your heavy flow is finished.
- If symptoms persist after treatment, you may have bacteria that is unaffected by Fluomizin, and you should be thoroughly tested by your doctor and seek other appropriate treatment.
Using Fluomizin during pregnancy and breastfeeding
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Fluomizin if you are pregnant or breastfeeding for personal advice.
Fluomizin is poorly absorbed into the bloodstream and is generally considered suitable during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but should be used only if medically needed. Do not use Fluomizin within 12 hours before birth.
Recommended dose and administration of Fluomizin
The recommended dose of Fluomizin is one tablet inserted deep into the vagina before bed each day for six days or as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
Instructions for using Fluomizin
- Insert every evening before bed
- Wash your hands before opening the blister pack and removing the tablet
- Lie down with legs slightly bent, and using a clean finger, insert one vaginal tablet deeply.
- Don’t use Fluomizin during heavy menstrual bleeding – wait until it’s finished, and then resume use.
- Do not stop treatment early, even if symptoms abate. Fewer than six days of treatment may result in treatment failure.
- Fluomizin ingredients do not dissolve completely, and the remainder may, with gravity, appear in your underwear. This is normal and does not affect the effectiveness of the treatment. The tablets do not stain, but you may want to use a panty liner or pad during use.
- The tablet needs moisture to dissolve, so if your vagina is dry, put a drop of water onto the tablet before insertion.
What to do if you use too much Fluomizin or forget a dose
You run the risk of vaginal irritation and ulcerations if you use more than the recommended dose of Fluomizin. Do not double the dose if you forget a dose.

Getting the best from Fluomizin
How many packs do you need?
One pack is a full 6-night course, which is enough for many people.
If BV or AV is stubborn, you may need a second course — but finish one pack first and see how you go. Running two packs back to back means you can’t tell whether the first one worked.
Buy 2 or more and the 10% comes off automatically at checkout — handy if you already know you tend to need a second round.
If the tablet feels dry or won’t dissolve
Fluomizin needs moisture to dissolve. If you’re dry, the tablet can sit undissolved, feel gritty, or cause irritation.
Add a little moisture before insertion: a drop of water on the tablet works, or a little water-based lubricant or vaginal moisturiser if you have it.
If you’re often dry, especially around perimenopause, that’s worth looking at in its own right. A low-oestrogen environment can be part of why BV keeps happening — so it’s often more useful to book an appointment and support the microbiome at the root than to keep treating BV that’s sitting on top of it.
If BV or AV keeps coming back
Fluomizin clears BV and AV well for a lot of people. But if it keeps returning, that’s usually a sign the underlying cause hasn’t been addressed — not that the treatment failed.
BV is often a whole-body imbalance that simply shows up in the vagina, so clearing the bacteria doesn’t always keep them gone.
If it keeps coming back, start with our free support assessment, or book an appointment with our naturopath team to find out why.

Works well but I need to flag something for first-timers. The tablet doesnt fully dissolve. As in not at all really. First morning I found a chalky white chunk in my panty liner and genuinely panicked. Thought something was wrong. It is in the instructions that this is normal and doesnt affect how the product works, but I had missed that. Once I knew what to expect it was completely fine and the BV cleared by night five. Chaukly undies not that great but product itself is good.

I had a Juno biom test done last year that showed aerobic vaginitis bacteria, specifically E. coli and Group B Streptococcus. I had been prior treated for BV repeatedly with metronidazole which does nothing. My old doctor is totally useless. I’m in the US. Go figure.
My new doctor had never heard of Fluomizin but after looking it up said it was a good match for what I actually had if I wanted to avoid antibiotics for the fifith time which I do. This site was the only place I could source it that didn’t seem dodgy in a foreign language. I completed a six night course and that was five months ago. Everything has been perfect since, except I have especially come back here to leave this review, because the other day I got symptoms again! but they have gone away and the next pack hasn’t arrived yet. Hopefully I’ve dodged a bullet and it won’t come back. I’m ready if it does ✊
If you have had a microbiome test and it is showing AV bacteria, or if you have clearly got a problematic infection and your doctor is an idiot like mine, look into Fluomizin, its honestly so easy to use. Having the right treatment for the right bacteria is everything. I can also vouch for this company not being a scam! Good delivery in a brown box etcetc. And also very nice customer service, thanks V love your work 😘

My naturopath put me onto this and honestly I love how simple it is. No filling capsules, no syringes, just a little white tablet before bed. I keep a spare pack in my bathroom cabinet now for whenever things feel off. So much better than taking antibiotics every time. Bit of powder/clumps come out the next day but that’s fine, just wear a liner. Good product!

I grew up in Budapest and we used Fluomizin all the time, you could just walk into any patika and buy it. When I moved to the States I couldn’t find it anywhere and my OB had never even heard of it. He just kept prescribing clindamycin which made me feel awful.
Found My Vagina through a google search one night and almost cried when I saw they sell it. Same product, same packaging. It arrived in about a week with the Hungarian/German insert and everything. I don’t understand why this isn’t approved in the US, it works better than any antibiotic I’ve tried here.

I really wanted this to work but the dryness was too much. First two nights were ok, a bit dry but bearable. Night 3 the tablet residue sat on the outside overnight and I woke up so dry it was painful to touch. I tried wetting the tablet before inserting like the instructions said but it started crumbling in my fingers. Stopped after night 4. Maybe my tissue was already too inflamed from the BV but I couldn’t push through it.

my girlfriend ordered this. she’s been dealing with recurring BV for over a year and tried antibiotics twice with no luck. the fluomizin worked after one pack and she said it was way easier than the antibiotic gel she was prescribed before that gave her thrush. she’s used it 3 times now whenever symptoms come back after her period. good product, she just wishes it lasted longer

first time ever dealing with BV and I was so stressed. my roommate recommended this site and I ordered Fluomizin because it seemed the simplest option, just a tablet, no mixing anything or filling capsules. honestly it was super easy, you just put it in before bed. there’s some white stuff that comes out the next morning but that’s just the tablet. smell was gone by like night 4. so relieved

I can finally get Fluomizin here in Australia! Back in Germany this was completely normal to buy at the pharmacy, but since I moved here I couldn’t find it anywhere. My Vagina is the only source I know, but you need to ask them for the special link for Australian customers. Packaging is in German, feels like home. Works just as well as always. Thank you!

After three rounds of metronidazole that destroyed my stomach and gave me a yeast infection every single time, I was desperate for something different. My doctor friend in Germany told me about Fluomizin, she was surprised it wasn’t available here in the US. Found it through My Vagina and I’m so glad I did.
The tablets are small, white, no weird smell. You just insert one each night for 6 nights. The only thing is this chalky white residue that comes out the next day, it’s the tablet breaking apart, not discharge. Don’t go on a date and try to have sex with it in (learned that the hard way lol).
I’ve used two packs now with a week break in between and my symptoms have cleared. My gut is also recovering from the antibiotic damage which is a bonus. Would have given 5 stars but the price is steep for 6 tablets.

I use it when my cycle finishes and I notice that it leaves all my lady bits feeling clean and odor-free, once it comes out – only advice is to use it when you are not going to be having sex with someone as the white powdery stuff has to come out the next day. Wear a liner. I can recommend Fluomizin for anyone who suffers female problems.

This literally saved my vacation. I was 2 days into a trip to Mexico when the BV smell hit and I was mortified. Had a pack of these in my toiletry bag (I always keep some on hand) and started using them right away. By day 3 the smell was completely gone. Seriously a lifesaver. Eeeek!

So this worked really well while I was using it. No smell, felt totally normal by night 3. But about 10 days after I finished the pack it started creeping back. I ordered a second pack and same thing, great during, but didn’t hold. Ended up switching to BV Rescue which has been better for long term. The tablets themselves are really easy to use though and I’d still recommend trying them.

I use one tablet every month after my period finishes and it keeps everything in check. Easy to pop in at night and the next day just wear a liner for the residue. Been ordering for about a year now, always keep a spare pack in the cupboard.

I have used this LOADS in Europe, but sadly it’s difficult and expensive to get in Australia. But, GIRLS, IT’S EXCELLENT. So easy to use. My Vagina is the only place selling it outside of Europe to my knowledge, except some scammy BS website I saw selling it for over $100, BUT IMPORTANT NOTE HERE: I had to ask my naturopath for the special link, which she got off the people at My Vagina. So if you’re in Australia – you need to ask for it, but you CAN buy it.

Soffro spesso di disturbi vaginali causati dallo stress, e la cosa mi dà sempre molto fastidio. Ho provato tantissimi rimedi, poi il mio medico mi ha consigliato Fluomizin. Alcune recensioni dicono che a volte può causare irritazioni dopo l’uso, ma fin dal primo utilizzo mi sono sentita bene. Per me è il migliore, pratico e veloce da usare.

I am using this Flumoizin BV Treatment to help with a PH imbalance and it seems to be going good so far! It’s easy and comfortable to use as each tablet is fairly slim so is more comfortable than other treatments from the chemist. Avoid trying to insert this tablet while standing up! I didn’t try to smell the treatment but I didn’t notice any scent.

Improved my intimate love life. BV has finally stopped ruining my relationships.
Before Fluomizin, I avoided intimacy because I was so embarrassmed and afraid of odor. Now I feel free.
No worries, no scent, no uncomfortable moments with my partner. Sex feels natural now.
My partner even commented how normal things feel now. It changed more than just my health – it changed my love life and has allowed me and my partner to once again be close. I feel incredibly relieved.
I did one box, waited a week and did another box, and it’s been 7 or so weeks now symptom free.

This product is great! I have had my unfortunate first experience with BV and it seriously SUCKS.
I have never had anything before this, so I had no idea how miserable my life would be. Flumizon is super easy to use! I am so glad that this was available as I have heard many people say that other treatments like antibiotics or whatever gave them some unwanted side effects.
The tablets are super convenient and easy to use. Worth every penny and I absolutely recommend! Very effective, the smell and texture is fine, I didn’t have any problems at all, it does get a little dry and crumbly the next day but I followed the advice by My Vagina on their page about it and used a little water based lube on entry and it was WAY better. More moist.
Great option for those looking for a super easy and effective remedy. For me it worked quickly and offered great relief! All my issues have gone and so quickly at that! It’s very good quality!

Works while I use it but isn’t a permanent solution for me unfortunately. I was diagnosed with CV and AV by my doctor and she recommended I try this product. I am from Europe so it is fairly easy to get hold of, but I was buying other items from My Vagina so got it from here too. It’s easy and clean to use, I’ll give it that, but I have had more relief from the BV Rescue and V-Spot probiotics treatment I am currently trying, though I haven’t done it long enough to judge yet so I’ll save my review on those for another month!

I decided to try this product after months and months of dealing with vaginal and urinary discomfort that slowly began to take over my life. It has mostly helped me, but let me explain a bit.
When it started, it was easy to dismiss. A slight odor here, a slight irritation there. I told myself that it was probably temporary, something that would get better by itself if I waited long enough.
But instead of fading, it got worse. Every day, it became more obvious. I was constantly aware of myself in an uncomfortable and exhausting way that I have never felt before. It wasn’t painful enough to freak out completely, but it was consistent enough to impact how I felt from when I woke up until when I went to sleep.
I use the 6 tablets one per night per the directions, and it works – no odor, no irritation – for sometimes three months at a time. I am no longer constantly monitoring myself for symptoms and I feel free, knowing there is a good solution there waiting for me in my cupboard.
My main advice is to buy two packets, use one and keep one spare – they last for ages per the expiry date. This is the safety I need.

I found Fluomizin very drying. It did not dissolve well and if I put it under the tap, as advised, it started to fall apart and was very difficult to insert. This ended up with some of the tablet on the outside and around where I pee. By day 3 had had sharp stabbing pains on the outside, but not inside. I stopped using it after I had used 3.
Hopefully it suits other people better than it suited me.

My story: BV and me have been accompanied for nearly two years. An ex of mine kindly gave it to me, and even though we have been broken up for over six months, it is still my constant companion. A miserly beast, it is.
I found My Vagina and was so relieved, as it seemed someone finally knew what to do with vaginas that wasn’t antibiotics – which haven’t ever worked for more than week for me.
I tried Fluomizin, alongside the Lifespace proboitics My Vagina recommends, and I did three packets, with a few days break in between where I put in a probiotic morning and night, and it has now been the longest time in the past two years without symptoms that I’ve had. It is now coming up 4.5 weeks, and I have had my period, and wow, holy moses, NO ODOUR. I could cry. Honestly, this has given me so much hope. I tell all my friends about this website, because it’s the only place on earth that has provided me with the best information and treatments to cure myself.
Thank you, to everyone, all, you all at My Vagina, no matter what your job is, you are all angels!
