Description
Medical device for topical use intended to promote the maintenance and/or restoration of the mucocutaneous integrity of the male genital area. It is indicated for the symptomatic treatment of erythema, itching, edema, pain, and burning during balanitis and balanoposthitis.
Irritation and inflammation of the glans and foreskin are accompanied by acute local infectious states and are often not connected with previous infections, or persist as a reaction to drugs and topical antifungal and corticosteroid treatments, or to the use of aggressive detergents. Traumatic, allergic, and dysmetabolic stimuli (e.g., diabetes) also contribute to the onset of irritative/inflammatory phenomena in the male genital area.
There is also a close correlation between lower urinary tract symptoms, typical of prostate and bladder diseases, and the onset of erythema, itching, edema, pain, and burning in the glans and foreskin. Lower urinary tract symptoms include a range of urinary disorders such as increased frequency and urgency of urination, incontinence, and terminal dribbling. Prolonged and/or frequent contact of urine with the skin and balano-preputial mucous membranes predisposes tissues to irritation and inflammation, especially in diabetic, immunosuppressed, and elderly subjects.
Whatever the inducing stimulus, chronic irritation and inflammation of the male genital area lead to an alteration of the defensive properties of the mucocutaneous barrier, facilitating the implantation of pathogens that cause genital infections.

Directions for use
Apply a thin layer of gel to the affected area twice a day until symptoms subside or as otherwise directed by a physician. Due to its unique bioadhesive properties, the product is able to remain in the application areas for a long time, thus ensuring an optimal long-acting effect.
