Re: TMI question

def double check w/your doc, but if you need to use it...get the wipes, not the cream.

I feel like the wipes won't work as well as the cream but I guess its better than nothing. Chat Icon

Re: TMI question

I agree. I think I remember a poster here saying that they actually kind of "left the pad on" for a while before getting dressed in the morning & then did the same once they were home.

What did you Dr say?

It's likely b/c the cream kind of goes "in" and would get in your blood stream whereas the pad wouldn't/as much. That's my guess based on all the reasons you take certain meds certain ways...suppositories get in your blood faster b/c of all the blood vessels in there.

eta-this was my doctor's reasoning when i needed an anti-nausea medication for the flu with DD. he gave me suppositories and said they will work faster b/c of all the blood vessels down there.

My guess is that anything you put on your skin will get absorbed into the body. The wipes are probably watered down whereas the cream would be a higher concentration of the medication. That's also probably why the cream works better

Re: TMI question

You can use the cream but use it only externally.

I would use BOTH the wipes and cream.
