Overview & Mechanism of Action
- Kotex Normal Tampons (16-count pack) provide reliable, low-profile internal menstrual absorption engineered for daily comfort and movement:

- Soft-Touch Cover & Easy Placement: Features a micro-thin, silky outer layer and narrow tip design for smooth, friction-free insertion and comfortable, effortless removal.
- Leak-Guard Channel System: Integrated micro-grooves direct fluid into the center of the absorbent core, blocking peripheral leakage and providing up to 8 hours of continuous protection.

Usage Guidance & Safety Precautions
Administration:
- Wash hands thoroughly before and after use. Remove wrap, gently insert the tampon at a comfortable upward angle, and ensure the withdrawal cord hangs freely outside the vaginal opening.
Recommended Usage:
- Change tampon every 4 to 8 hours as needed based on individual menstrual flow. Always select the lowest absorbency required for your current flow level.
Precautions & Warnings:
- For vaginal sanitary use during menstruation only. Warning regarding Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS): TSS is a rare but serious and potentially fatal illness linked to tampon usage; change tampons every 4–8 hours, use the minimum required absorbency, and alternate with sanitary towels. Do not leave a single tampon inserted for longer than 8 hours. Discontinue use and seek immediate medical care if sudden high fever, rash, vomiting, diarrhea, or dizziness develops.
