A member asked:

Why do i need to avoid sex while using vaginal suppository aside from its effects on condoms and the likes?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Because most: vaginal suppositories, except spermicidals, are used to treat infection- sure to spread with intercourse: it's not about the effect on condoms: it's is a logical therapy to cure an infection.
