Abstract: A composition comprising i) oligomeric lactic acid with the following formula (I) wherein n is an integer from 2 to 20, from 2 to 19, or from 2 to 18, and wherein from about 10 to about 20% w/w of the total weight of the oligomeric lactic acid is a trimer, HL3, having n equal to 2, wherein the number average molecular weight Mn of the oligomeric lactic acid is from about 200 to about 500, and ii) a mucoadhesive agent.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of one or more oligomers of lactic acid or a lactic acid oligomeric product for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of a disease or condition that benefits from an acidic environment, especially a gynaecological infection including a bacterial infection such as bacterial vaginosis, unspecific colpitis, senile colpitis, cervicitis, and urethritis, a fungal infection, such as candidosis (Candida albicans), cryptococcosis, actinomycosis, or a viral infection, such as Human Immunodefiency Virus (HIV), Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV), Human Papilloma Virus (HPV).

Abstract: The invention relates to an oligomeric lactic acid composition comprising one or more oligomers of lactic acid or a pharmaceutical composition comprising an oligomeric lactic acid composition for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of a disease or condition that benefits from an acidic environment.

Abstract: Use of the one or more oligomers of lactic acid with the following formula (I) wherein n is an integer from 2 to 25 such as, e.g., from 2 to 20, from 3 to 25, from 3 to 20, from 2 to 15, from 3 to 15, from 2 to 10, from 3 to 10, from 4 to 10, or from 4 to 9 or a lactic acid oligomeric product for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of a disease or condition that benefit of an acidic environment especially a gynaecological infection such as a bacterial infection, such as bacterial vaginosis, unspecific colpitis, senile colpitis, cervicitis, and urethritis, a fungal infection, such as candidosis (Candida albicans), cryptococcosis, actinomycosis, or a viral infection, such as Human Immunodefiency Virus (HIV), Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV), Human Papilloma Virus (HPV).
