Enhanced Ozonized Olive Oil Compositions for Topical Treatment of Vulvovaginitis

The present inventive concept relates to an improved ozonized olive oil composition for the topical treatment of vulvovaginitis, featuring a broader range of natural ingredients, pH buffering, and enhanced moisturizing properties.

Vulvovaginitis is a common and recurring problem affecting women worldwide. The original patent disclosed an ozonized olive oil composition with limited natural ingredients, which may not provide optimal treatment outcomes. The present inventive concept addresses the limitations of the original patent by introducing a more comprehensive range of natural ingredients, pH buffering, and moisturizing properties to create a more effective and user-friendly composition.

The enhanced ozonized olive oil composition comprises an ozonized olive oil having a peroxide value of 50-350 mEq O2/Kg and at least one liquid vegetable extract selected from among Allium spp., Aloe spp., Calendula officinalis, Cinnamomum spp., Curcuma spp., Lavender spp., Melaleuca spp., Plantago, Salvia officinalis, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Thymus spp., Zingiber spp., and mixtures thereof. The composition may further include a pH buffering agent to maintain a pH range of 4.5-5.5, and a moisturizing agent to enhance skin hydration. The inventive concept also encompasses methods for preparing and using the composition, as well as a kit for treating vulvovaginitis.

The new claims introduce a broader range of natural ingredients, pH buffering, and moisturizing properties, which are not anticipated by the original patent. The combination of these features provides a more effective and user-friendly composition for the topical treatment of vulvovaginitis.

Alternative embodiments of the inventive concept may include varying the concentration of the ozonized olive oil, using different types of vegetable extracts, or incorporating additional ingredients to enhance the composition's efficacy. Variations of the method for preparing the composition may include using different mixing protocols or adding preservatives to extend the shelf life.

The enhanced ozonized olive oil composition has significant commercial potential in the gynecology and dermatology markets, offering a natural, effective, and user-friendly solution for the topical treatment of vulvovaginitis. The composition may be marketed as an over-the-counter or prescription product, and its moisturizing properties may also appeal to consumers seeking natural skincare products.
