Using Durex Extra Safe Condoms correctly is essential to ensure maximum protection and comfort during intimacy. Always read the instructions carefully and follow the safety guidelines provided to reduce the risk of condom failure and ensure the best experience.
Important points to remember:
Never reuse condoms, as this can significantly reduce their effectiveness and increase the risk of breakage.
Heat and direct sunlight can damage the latex, making condoms less reliable.
Expired condoms are more likely to break and offer less protection.
Specific instructions are provided for different types of sexual activity to ensure safe use.
Oil-based products (such as lotions, baby oil, or petroleum jelly) can weaken latex and cause breakage.
While Durex condoms reduce the risk of pregnancy, HIV, and STIs, no product can eliminate these risks completely.
Proper application and removal are key to maintaining safety and comfort.
Using condoms correctly is essential for ensuring maximum protection and comfort. Follow these steps for safe and effective use:
Gently tear the condom wrapper along the edge, avoiding sharp objects like teeth, nails, or jewellery that may damage the condom.
Place the condom on the tip of the erect penis and pinch the reservoir tip to remove trapped air. This helps reduce the risk of breakage and allows space for semen collection.
While holding the tip, roll the condom all the way down to the base of the penis. If it does not unroll easily, it may be inside out—discard it and use a new one to ensure proper fit and safety.
If the condom feels too tight or uncomfortable, stop and check the fit. Choose a different size if necessary.
Hold the condom securely at the base while withdrawing, ensuring it stays in place. Withdraw while still erect to prevent slippage or leakage.
Wrap the used condom in tissue or its wrapper and throw it in the bin. Never flush condoms, as they can block pipes and harm the environment.
For complete safety and effectiveness, always refer to the detailed instructions included inside the pack before use.
The Durex Extra Safe Condoms are made from carefully selected, high-quality materials designed to offer both safety and comfort:
A durable, flexible material that provides reliable protection while maintaining a natural feel. It is widely used in premium condoms for its strength and elasticity.
Pre-lubricated for smoother, more comfortable use, reducing friction during intercourse and enhancing the overall experience.
These materials are rigorously tested to ensure safety, comfort, and performance, delivering the trusted protection Durex is known for.
While Durex Extra Safe Condoms are safe and effective for most users, some individuals may experience mild to moderate side effects, primarily related to latex sensitivity or personal comfort preferences.
Commonly reported side effects include:
Latex condoms can sometimes trigger allergic responses, especially in individuals sensitive to natural rubber latex. Symptoms may include rashes, irritation, burning, or itching.
People with known latex allergies should avoid using latex condoms and instead choose non-latex alternatives such as synthetic or lambskin condoms. Severe allergic symptoms such as swelling or breathing difficulties require immediate medical attention.
The silicone-based lubricant or friction during use may cause mild irritation or discomfort in some users.
Due to their slightly thicker design for extra protection, some users may experience a decrease in sensation or pleasure during intercourse.
If any severe or persistent symptoms occur, discontinue use and seek medical advice.
Exceptional service. We needed medicine for my parents. The pharmacy was able to arrange stock and deliver the medication on the same day. The team really went the extra mile.
Really good staff! Very helpful and prompt. I had a really bad experience at my previous pharmacy, really happy I moved over. Recommend to everyone especially because they’re open 7 days a week even on bank holidays!
I had an excellent experience at Star Pharmacy! The staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. They go above and beyond to answer questions and ensure you get the right medication. The store is clean, well-organized, and fully stocked with everything you need. Highly recommend this pharmacy for their outstanding customer service!
Excellent pharmacy, quick and kind. Now that I’ve moved house, I still travel all the way here even though I could pick somewhere closer. Just couldn’t go anywhere else!
Always really helpful & so friendly. Even when not dispensing my medicine, the pharmacist has given me second opinion and checked me over. Have ordered me needles in that I had trouble getting elsewhere also. So refreshing to find a pharmacy who wants to help and is kind!
