CanesOral Combi 1 Day Oral Capsule + Extra Strength External Cream
CanesOral Combi 1 Day Oral Capsule + Extra Strength External Cream
CanesOral Combi 1 Day is a single-dose treatment for vaginal yeast infections (candidiasis) offered by Canesten. It combines an oral capsule and a topical cream to address the infection from two angles:
Components:
-
CanesOral Capsule (Fluconazole 150mg): This is a single-dose capsule you swallow by mouth. Fluconazole is an antifungal medication that fights the fungal infection causing the yeast infection throughout your body.
-
Canesten External Cream (1% Clotrimazole): This cream soothes the itching and burning caused by the yeast infection on the vulva (external vaginal area).
Benefits:
- Fast and Convenient: Offers relief in just one day with the oral medication and provides ongoing external symptom relief with the cream.
- Comprehensive Relief: Addresses both the internal infection and external discomfort.
- Over-the-Counter (OTC) Available: Canesten Combi 1 Day may be available over-the-counter in some regions, allowing easier access without a prescription (it's important to confirm requirements in your area).
Directions:
-
CanesOral Capsule:
- Take the CanesOral capsule by mouth with or without food.
- You only need to take one capsule for the entire treatment.
-
Canesten External Cream:
- Wash and dry the affected area thoroughly.
- Apply a thin layer of the cream to the itchy and burning areas around the vagina.
- Gently rub it in.
- While the oral medication treats the internal infection in one day, you can use the Canesten External Cream for up to 7 days for ongoing symptom relief.
- Wash your hands after applying the cream.
Possible Side Effects:
CanesOral Combi 1 Day is generally well-tolerated, but some side effects can occur, including:
