Boric Acid Plus (Yeast Arrest) has successfully been used to treat difficult cases of vaginal yeast infections (Candida) and Bacterial Vaginosis (BV). Boric acid is a safe substance with mild antiseptic properties. In one study of 100 women with chronic yeast vaginitis that had failed to respond to treatment with over-the-counter or prescription antifungal medicines, 98% of the women successfully treated their infections with boric acid capsules inserted into the vagina twice per day for two to four weeks. Several commercial douching products contain boric acid. Safe during pregancy and lactation (recommended by Midwives for decades).

Ingredients:

• Boric Acid...600mg
• Berberis Oregon Grape Root... 150mg
• Calendula Flowers... 50mg

Other Ingredients: Vegetable cellulose and water.

Suggested Use:
Acute Yeast Vaginitis (Candida)
Mild cases: Insert 1 suppository once per day for 3 to 7 days.
Resistant cases: Insert 1 suppository twice per day for 10 to 14 days. Use a panti-liner or pad as suppository capsule will melt and leak over 12-24 hours. We recommend you take an oral probiotic during treatment and/or follow with a few days of Candaclear probiotic suppositories to replenish the good bacteria.
Note: Although Yeast Arrest does kill off some of the good bateria, it does so more sparingly than antibiotics, plus the Calendula has anti-inflammatory & immune enhancing effects.

Chronic Yeast Vaginitis (Candida)
Insert 1 suppository twice per day for 2 weeks. If a response occurs but not a complete resolution, repeat for an additional two weeks (1 capsule 2 times per day). Then, 1 capsule per day for four days each month, during menstruation (or the last days of menses), for four months. Use a panti-liner or pad as suppository capsule will melt and leak over 12-24 hours. Safe during pregnancy and lactation. We recommend you take an oral probiotic during treatment and/or follow with a few days of Candaclear probiotic suppositories to replenish the good bacteria.

Bacterial Vaginonis (BV)
See our complete BV protocol here on this page.

Prevention of recurrence
Insert 1 suppository once per day at bedtime during menstruation for four months. Depending on severity of symptoms, you may use as little as 1 suppository per month during the last day of your period, or one per day for 5 days during your period (or when symptoms tend to flare up).

Normal side effects: While using Yeast Arrest suppositories, some women experience a large amount and/or different kind of discharge within the first few days. This is normal and can be attributed to the yeast and bad bacteria dying off and being released out of your body. Within days, symptoms will subside. Be sure to be taking your oral HLC Probiotics alongside with vaginal treatment to ensure the body can re-colonize the good bacteria.
