Kenyan pharmacists warn against viral craze of using allergy drug for vaginal tightening
Kenyan pharmacists have warned women against inserting allergy tablets into their vaginas in an attempt to make them tighter, following the spread of potentially dangerous medical advice on social media. The warning follows a wave of social media posts promoting cetirizine - a widely available oral antihistamine used to treat allergies - as a way of tightening the vagina, supposedly to enhance sexual pleasure. Although antihistamines can sometimes cause dryness as a side effect, experts say this does not strengthen vaginal muscles. "Dryness is not tightness... instead, it may increase friction, discomfort, and the risk of tissue injury," the Pharmaceutical Society of Kenya (PSK) said.
