Canesten Combi 3 day

Canesten Combi 3 Day is a complete treatment for vaginal yeast infections (candidiasis) offered by Canesten. It combines two medications in one package to address both the internal infection and external symptoms:

• Canesten ComforTAB (or applicator with cream depending on the version): This delivers a single dose of clotrimazole (typically 100mg) directly into the vagina to fight the fungal infection.
• Canesten External Cream (1% Clotrimazole): This cream provides relief from external itching and burning associated with the yeast infection. You can use it for up to 7 days for symptom relief.

Benefits:

• Convenience: The 3-day regimen offers a faster and more convenient treatment compared to some other Canesten clotrimazole creams that require a 6-day application.
• Dual Action: It addresses both the internal infection and external discomfort for comprehensive relief.
• Over-the-Counter: Canesten Combi 3 Day is typically available over-the-counter in many countries, allowing for easier access without a prescription.

Directions:

• Canesten ComforTAB/Applicator:
  • Wash and dry your hands thoroughly.
  • Follow the instructions provided with the product for using the applicator to insert the ComforTAB (or apply cream using the applicator) high into the vagina, preferably before bedtime.
  • Use only one ComforTAB (or applicator-full of cream) 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.
  • You can use the Canesten External Cream for up to 7 days for symptom relief, even after completing the 3-day internal treatment.
  • Wash your hands after applying the cream.

Possible Side Effects:

Canesten Combi 3 Day is generally well-tolerated, but some mild side effects can occur, including:

• Burning sensation in the vagina
• Itching in the vagina
• Vulvar irritation

These side effects are usually mild and go away on their own within a short period. However, consult your doctor if you experience any severe or persistent side effects.

Warnings and Precautions:

• Do not use Canesten Combi 3 Day if you are allergic to clotrimazole or any other ingredients in the product.
