Be safe, stay safe

With the rapid approach of Valentine's Day on 14 February, love is in the air. Soon romantic rhymes, the rustle of Valentine's cards and the anticipation of intimate dinner dates will be causing hearts to flutter and beat a little louder than before.

7 to 14 February is also National Condom Week, reminding us to love responsibly and keep any new or existing sexual relationship safe and worry-free. Protection against sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancy involves more than that little square packet you pop into your pocket before heading out the door. Assegai's moisturising water-based personal lubricant protects against condom breakage and improves sexual pleasure during those intimate moments.

Supplied to non-profit organisations across sub-Saharan Africa, including the Desmond Tutu HIV Research Foundation and Population Council - Assegai personal lubricant is super-slippery, long-lasting and safe to use with condoms. The trade-secret formula has indeed been found to retain its lubricating properties longer than other water-based personal lubricants.

This personal lubricant is manufactured by Tatt2 Personal Health in accordance with World Health Organisation standards, using only pharmaceutical grade ingredients and is independently tested to ensure quality and safety. The Assegai range of condoms, manufactured according to the same stringent standards, will soon be available in South Africa.

Assegai is available nation-wide at Clicks Pharmacies and stores, Dis-Chem Pharmacies, Link Pharmacies, Alpha-Pharm Pharmacies and selected stores.
