A member asked:
I've got a non-std ulcer on the inside of my labia minora. doctor prescribed timodine cream but it stings like crazy. is it safe to use on mucosa?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Timodine: Timodine cream has four active ingredients, hydrocortisone, nystatin, benzalkonium chloride and dimeticone. It is doubtful that this will have a beneficial effect on labial ulcers which are most probably herpetic. It may help to reduce inflammation, but if it is painful you might not want to do this. If this is herpes it should clear up in 7-10 days and topical treatment will seldom be effective.
