Product Summary

An effective single-dose pessary with applicator for the treatment of vaginal thrush. The pessary goes straight to the site of the infection to clear the cause of thrush.

A vaginal thrush infection may cause any of the following symptoms: whitish, odourless vaginal discharge, persistent burning, itching, redness, swelling, and soreness of the vagina and vulva.

Directions

  • The applicator should be used to insert the pessary as high as possible into the vagina, preferably before going to sleep at night for convenient and comfortable treatment.
  • If no improvement is seen after seven days, tell your doctor.
  • If the infection returns after seven days, you may use one further treatment, but if you have more than two infections within six months, see your doctor.

Ingredients

  • Active ingredient: Clotrimazole 500mg
  • Also contains: Lactose Monohydrate, Microcrystalline Cellulose, Lactic Acid, Maize Starch, Crospovidone, Calcium Lactate Pentahydrate, Magnesium Stearate, Colloidal Anhydrous Silica, and Hypromellose.

Read the enclosed leaflet carefully before use.

Before using Canesten Thrush Pessary, you should see your doctor if:

  • you are unsure whether you have thrush or if this is the first time you have had these symptoms
  • you have had more than two infections of thrush in the last six months
