Dequalinium chloride, the active ingredient in Naxyl, is a quaternary ammonium antiseptic presented as a vaginal antiseptic preparation for intravaginal use. It is employed to manage vaginal infections, including bacterial vaginosis, by targeting a broad spectrum of microorganisms.

Naxyl is a vaginal antiseptic used to treat conditions affecting the vaginal microbiome.

- Vaginal infections: reduces microbial load and alleviates symptoms such as discharge and irritation. - Bacterial vaginosis: helps restore normal vaginal flora by eliminating pathogenic bacteria. - Recurrent vaginal dysbiosis: supports maintenance of a balanced vaginal environment when used as directed.

Adverse reactions may occur with intravaginal use of Naxyl.
