Intended Use

Replens is a personal lubricant for vaginal application, intended to moisturize and lubricate, to enhance the ease and comfort of intimate sexual activity and supplement the body's natural lubrication. This product is compatible with natural rubber latex condoms and synthetic (polyurethane and polyisoprene) condoms.

Device Story

Replens is a non-sterile, water-based, white to off-white vaginal gel. It is supplied in a 35g tube with a reusable applicator to facilitate application and reduce mess. The device is intended for ongoing use as a long-lasting moisturizer for vaginal dryness, not exclusively for intimate sexual activity. It functions by providing moisture and lubrication to the vaginal mucosa. The device is for over-the-counter use. It is compatible with natural rubber latex and synthetic (polyurethane and polyisoprene) condoms. The gel is formulated with ingredients generally recognized as safe (GRAS) or meeting USP/NF standards.

Clinical Evidence

Evidence includes multiple clinical studies (1991-1994) involving 25-89 patients per study, evaluating vaginal pH, vaginal mucosa, symptom relief, and dryness index. Studies utilized various regimens (daily or 3x weekly). Results consistently indicated the product is safe and well-tolerated. Additional bench testing includes biocompatibility (cytotoxicity, irritation, systemic toxicity, hypersensitivity), USP <51> antimicrobial effectiveness, and condom compatibility.

Technological Characteristics

Water-based vaginal gel; non-sterile; non-irritating, non-greasy, non-staining. Ingredients meet USP/NF standards or are GRAS. Delivered via tube with reusable applicator. Shelf life of 3 years. Compatible with natural rubber latex, polyurethane, and polyisoprene condoms.

Indications for Use

Indicated for individuals requiring vaginal moisturization and lubrication to supplement natural lubrication and enhance comfort during intimate sexual activity. Compatible with natural rubber latex, polyurethane, and polyisoprene condoms.

Regulatory Classification

Identification
