Precautions: If the condom is damaged, discard and use a new one. Store latex in a cool, dry place and avoid exposure to direct sunlight. Handle the condom carefully when removing from the packet and avoid damage by fingernails, teeth, jewellery etc.
Ask a doctor or pharmacist about the compatibility of any topical medicines in possible contact with condoms. If additional lubrication should be added use only those recommended for condoms. Do not use oil-based lubricants such as baby oil, body lotion or petroleum jelly etc. If the condom should break or leak during use, seek medical advice as soon as possible and within 72 hours. Do not reuse the condom.
Directions for use: Place the condom on the erect penis, before any contact between the penis and partner’s body. Use a new condom for each act of sex. Discard the condom if damaged, discoloured or past its expiry date. Check the roll is on the outside of the condom. Squeeze the teat end of the condom whilst rolling the condom down the erect penis. To avoid breakage, stop if you feel the condom slipping off or tightening excessively on the penis. Withdraw the penis soon after ejaculation by holding the condom in place at the penis base. Dispose of the used condom, but do not flush it down the toilet.
