Abstract
A stable solution, cream, salve, or spray composition containing activated chlorine dioxide and phosphates, such as disodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, trisodium phosphate, and sodium monofluorophosphate, is disclosed for the treatment of vaginitis and endometriosis by reducing any of Candida, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Pseudomonades, and Porphyromonas gingivalis present in the vagina or the uterus. The preferred concentration ranges are in the range of about 0.005% to about 2.0% of chlorine dioxide, and in the range of about 0.02% to about 3.0% of phosphate. The phosphate compound retards escape of chlorine dioxide in the pH range of 6.0 to 7.4, at which pH chlorine dioxide becomes activated and releases sufficient chlorine dioxide to reduce motility and become lethal to the involved micro-organisms.
