Best seller: our best-selling boric acid suppository that promotes fresh vaginal odor
Feel confident with our single-ingredient suppository that never includes fragrance or essential oils, two types of ingredients we don't believe belong in womens wellness solutions
Won't disrupt your healthy vaginal pH levels
An odor control must-have that is clinically proven as safe for skin†
Description
Love Wellness’ The Killer is a boric acid vaginal suppository for fresh vaginal odor.
Key Ingredients: - BORIC ACID: Boric Acid comes from a mineral in sea water and is known for promoting fresh vaginal odor. - Gluten-Free & Dairy-Free
WHY WE MADE THE KILLER: Old school solutions weren't cutting it, so we teamed up with experts in 2016 to bring you our incredibly popular boric acid suppository for fresh vaginal odor. The Killer is formulated with just one, powerful ingredient: boric acid. It provides fast support and unlike other brands is made without fragrance or essential oils, two ingredients we don't believe belong in a woman's care routine.
HOW TO USE: DO NOT TAKE ORALLY. To Use: With clean hands, insert 1 suppository into the vagina at bedtime daily as needed or for up to 14 days.
Expect some discharge over the course of the night (we like to wear a thin pad to protect our undies) but understand that this is normal.
Avoid sexual intercourse when using this product. You should always insert after you have fully emptied your bladder, especially after sexual intercourse.
If using The Killer® along with Flora Power™ we recommend using The Killer® first for anywhere between 1-14 days, depending on your body's needs, and then Flora Power™ for up to 5 days. You'll want to use just one suppository at a time and complete a run of one product before moving onto the next.

A: Hi E!
Since there are so many personal factors to take into consideration (like age, genetics, other medications you may be on, allergies, sensitivities, etc), we recommend checking in with your doctor to see if there are any products or ingredients that could be an issue for your specific type of birth control.
Consulting with your doctor is best, as they’ll have a more complete knowledge of your specific medication, as well as your medical history to make the best determination for you personally.

submitted by BMC Redirect - 4 months ago
A: Hi there, if you think you might have an active infection/irritation, it's important you speak with a doctor or healthcare provider to seek medical advice on whether it makes sense for you to use The Killer at this time.

Q: do i take this everyday for 14 days straight?
submitted by women - 5 months ago
A: How long you use The Killer depends on your body and your needs. You can use The Killer for as little as 1 day or for as long as 5 days. Only use one suppository every 24-hour period.
It's always best to consult with a doctor before use of any new product, particularly if you have sensitivity in your lower pelvis or abdomen, a sexually transmitted disease (STD), pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), vaginal bleeding, sores, ulcerations, nausea, fever, or chills. Stop use and contact a doctor if symptoms persist or worsen.

Brand expert
Q: how long does it take to dissolve?
submitted by women - 5 months ago
A: Disintegration ranges around 4 - 10 mins for The Killer. If you notice your discharge seems grainy as if the suppository didn’t fully dissolve, that could be a sign it wasn’t inserted deeply enough into the vagina (remember to position it as far as you would insert a tampon).
It is recommend that you chat with your doctor before starting any new product, or if you are experiencing any unexpected changes in your discharge (consistency, odor, causing irritation), or have any concerns. Your doctor will be able to provide the most accurate recommendations for you based on your medical history.
This product has garnered a mix of enthusiastic and critical feedback from guests. Many appreciate its effectiveness in addressing issues like odor and yeast infections, often noting quick results and a sense of freshness. However, some guests have reported concerns about a strong smell and discomfort after use. Overall, it appears to be a valuable addition to personal care routines for those seeking relief from feminine health issues.

OK, but...
Sometimes the clear gelatin capsule itself does not disintegrate.. then what? We have a little foreign body up inside us. It would also be nice if they did not use gelatin but use a non meat product for the capsule.
1 reply from Customer Experience team - 16 days ago
Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback! If you notice a change in time to dissolve (or incomplete dissolving) may be a result of not having inserted the suppository deep enough. Make sure it is inserted as you would a tampon, deep enough that you can't feel it, and that it can't slip out on it's own. The Killer will dissolve based on your vaginal environment too, so when it's inserted like a tampon, it's in ideal conditions with consistent levels of moisture and warmth of help break the capsule down to disperse the powder inside.

Strong burnt hair/perm smell due to vegan casing
I only used one capsule and haven't used it since because the next day there was a smell like burnt hair/perm. It was smelly even through my clothes! I tested a capsule under running water in my hand and it smelled exactly what I smelled after inserting one capsule, so I concluded that it wasn't coming from me. It seems that the smell happens as soon as it touches any moisture, regardless of whether it being inserted. I think it's because of the vegan capsule casing that's being used. Other than this very strong smell, I haven't had other issues.
1 reply from Love Wellness team - 1 month ago
Thank you for sharing your feedback and detailed testing - that's really helpful! We're sorry to hear about this experience! The capsule casing is designed to dissolve upon contact with moisture, and while a slight scent during that process can occur, we want to make sure what you're describing is thoroughly looked into. Could you reach out to us at contact@lovewellness.com with these details? Thank you, and we look forward to hearing from you! 💛 The Love Wellness Team

Formula changed and it BURNS!
I used to buy this product faithfully and just purchased a new box a few days ago. I used it as usual and it started creating a burning sensation. The capsule never dissolved. I literally had to douche it because my muffin was on fire. 😩 I do not recommend this product anymore as of July 6, 2026.

I was struggling with a nasty yeast infection and have had annoying discharge for months and tried these out and let me tell you they worked FAST. Used for 4 days and I can’t believe I never used these before. That “fresh” feeling is truly fresh . Like my girl can breathe again it’s a wild sensation haha love love and I will be using regularly .

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback - our team appreciates it, though we’re sorry to hear that. This reaction is not expected or typical but we know that everyone is different and unique to their health. In this case we highly recommend consulting with your doctor or giving your pharmacist a call as they will be more qualified to advise on your particular situation and offer insight on what might have caused this (whether it could've been one product an interaction of multiple or something unrelated but triggered by an ingredient etc.). We're so sorry again and we so appreciate you taking the time to leave this feedback!

Burnt rubber smell, i used to use this product but definitely a change in formula because it smells even more horrible down there. Do not buy and believe these comments about the burnt rubber smell.
1 reply from Love Wellness team - 4 months ago
Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback - our team appreciates it! There have been no changes to the formula of The Killer. If you are noticing a smell while using The Killer; It comes down to pH. The capsule and boric acid dissolving in the vagina can give off an odor when reacting to pH levels! Given The Killer helps balance everything out you should notice the smell tends to go away within 2-3 uses! As always we strongly suggest consulting with a doctor or a pharmacist before starting a new regimen or adding to an existing regimen regardless. Since everyone is so unique when it comes to their health it's definitely a great idea to chat with your healthcare provider on your specific experience or questions so they can lend their expertise on what will serve your body's needs best. We hope you're able to find a product that best suits your needs!

Weird smell???????
I’ve bought this product before and usually it leaves no smell and removes odor immediately but the recent box I got smells so bad, as others have described it smells like burnt rubber or something…did they change the ingredients? Why does it smell different? It’s definitely not the ph because the smell is coming directly from the suppository…

First time I’ve used boric acid in a capsule. Absolutely the after smell it left. And it doesn’t come with an applicator. Prefer the Honey Pot melts.
1 reply from Love Wellness team - 4 months ago
Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback - our team appreciates it! The Killer does not come with an applicator, in an effort to reduce one-time use plastic. We usually recommend using clean fingers to gently insert The Killer as you would a tampon, which should be far enough that it won't slip out. Some customers have used tampon applicators or purchased applicators separately for more comfort when inserting The Killer since we do not include one. If you are noticing a smell while using The Killer; It comes down to pH. The capsule and boric acid dissolving in the vagina can give off an odor when reacting to pH levels!

These suppositories left a really foul odor behind, kind of like burnt rubber. I use boric acid from time to time, especially when I'm more active in the gym to help out, and this was my first time trying these. I've never had such an experience with boric acid supps. Definitely returning as these weren't for me

Over priced and recent reviews are correct
I’ve been using this product for years and going through the reviews I can definitely relate to them ! The price on this thing is crazy absurd, you can’t even say you get what you paid for because it’s not cheap. My biggest thing is that is doesnt always break down once it’s inserted, i think i have to wait about 48hrs to ensure everything dissolves. There has to be something better.
