Vaginal anti-infectives are a functional class of topical antimicrobial medications formulated as intravaginal creams, suppositories, ovules, or gels Clinically, they are primarily indicated for treating lower female genital tract infections, most commonly vulvovaginal candidiasis, bacterial vaginosis, and symptomatic trichomoniasis By delivering therapeutic drug concentrations directly to affected mucosal tissues, they resolve local infection while minimizing systemic absorption and exposure

These agents exert localized antibacterial, antifungal, or antiprotozoal activity by disrupting pathogen cellular membranes, inhibiting nucleic acid or protein synthesis, or restoring physiological acidity within the vaginal vault Clinically, they are primarily indicated for treating lower female genital tract infections, most commonly vulvovaginal candidiasis, bacterial vaginosis, and symptomatic trichomoniasis
