Just as the Tylenol in your kitchen cabinet is made in a very specific way, so is BoriCap.
When we set out to create BoriCap 8 years ago, we rolled up our sleeves and talked to hundreds of feminine healthcare providers to determine how they were using boric acid suppositories in their current practice. We then turned to the American Board of Gynecology as well as the CDC to outline the product and usage specifications.
So why do we see spinoffs of BoriCap, offering something that seems shiny, new & different?
The question really should be: Do you want to follow the recommendations of a company that is offering a product not endorsed by doctors?
First up fad... Veggie capsules! We tested this extensively for our vegan friends. Unfortunately, the vegetable capsule does not break down at body temperature in the vagina so you are left with an intact capsule which never melts, which means the contents do not disperse.
Some have tried being fancy by adding ingredient like aloe or tea tree. Let’s face it ladies, do you want to put something in your body that has not been endorsed or tested by the science community?
Another common variation we see advertised is a smaller "mini" capsule for "comfort". CRINGE! So why is a smaller capsule such a problem? You will notice a little extra space inside a BoriCap suppository. The contents move a bit within the capsule, so the boric acid isn't packed tight or compressed.

When the suppository is placed inside the vagina, your body fluids and temperature help break down the gelatin capsule, which then allows the boric acid power to begin working. If that capsule contents are compressed, the contents will remain in a clump when the capsule dissolves, instead of disbursing freely.
Let's face it... if a tampon or a baby can fit in the vaginal canal, a size 00 gelatin capsule really shouldn’t be a problem. In this case bigger really is better.
Don't even get us started on capsules that have logos, colors, or sparkles!
