A topical composition for the delivery of bio-affecting agents through the protective outer layer of skin into the underlying tissues and into the general circulation to prevent the causes and symptoms of vector-borne diseases. The transdermal penetration is achieved by the use of an essential volatile oil with insect repellent capabilities, such as eucalyptus oil. The bio-affective agents may be a combination of a zinc salt and form of vitamin A. A zinc salt may also be used for photoprotective purposes. The topical composition can be formulated as a solution, suspension, cream, ointment, gel, film or spray.

An improved tampon is provided having one or more loops placed entirely through the tampon for ease in insertion and removal of an attached spherical member into and from a body cavity. Moreover, the improved tampon can be impregnated at select depths with specific spermicides, anti-infectives, lubricants, hormones, antioxidants, amino acids, etc. , to allow release of inner-impregnated fluids from the member into the body cavity. Closely controlled impregnation and/or coating of the tampon is achieved by a method of manufacture employing one or more sonic baths containing necessary impregnating and/or coating fluids.
