3. Manufacturing Technology

Local delivery requires specific formulation traits.

  • The Manufacturer: Healthy Life Pharma Pvt. Ltd.

    • Rapid Disintegration: Unlike oral tablets, vaginal tablets must dissolve in a low-moisture environment (vaginal fluid). We use specialized Super-Disintegrants and foaming agents (in some formulations) to ensure the tablet breaks down quickly upon insertion to coat the vaginal walls with the antifungal agent.

    • Shape & Comfort: We use dedicated tooling to create Diamond or Oval shaped tablets with smooth edges. This ergonomic design makes insertion easier and comfortable for the patient.

    • Applicator Integration: We have established supply chains for medical-grade plastic applicators, which are blister-packed alongside the tablets or included in the carton.

  • The Exporter: Healthy Inc

    • Moisture Protection: Nystatin loses potency if exposed to humidity. We use Alu-Poly Foil Strips that provide a hermetic seal until the moment of use.

4. Quality Assurance

We adhere to strict Pharmacopoeial standards:

  • Microbiological Assay: We measure potency in International Units (IU) rather than just weight, ensuring the biological activity against yeast is standardized.

  • Disintegration: Tested in simulated vaginal fluid to ensure release within 30 minutes.

  • Purity: Strict limits on related substances and heavy metals.

5. Why Use Nystatin Vaginal Tablets?

It is a safe, non-systemic option for thrush.

  • Mechanism: Nystatin binds to ergosterol, a vital component of the fungal cell membrane. This creates pores in the membrane, causing the fungus to leak electrolytes and die.

  • Key Indications:

    • Vaginal Candidiasis: Treatment of yeast infections (Thrush).

    • Prophylaxis: Prevention of fungal overgrowth in patients taking broad-spectrum antibiotics.

  • Advantage: Unlike oral antifungals (Fluconazole), Nystatin is not absorbed into the bloodstream. It acts locally, making it safer for patients who cannot tolerate systemic drugs (e.g., liver issues or pregnancy).

6. Export and Regulatory Support

We streamline the registration process for our B2B partners:

  • Dossier Support: We offer CTD and ACTD Dossiers for quick registration.

  • Certificates: Free Sale Certificate (FSC), COPP (WHO-GMP), and COA.

  • Logistics: Efficient shipping via Air or Sea (FOB Mumbai / CIF).
