What is Thrush?

Thrush is a yeast infection triggered by the fungus Candida. This condition can develop in various areas, including the mouth, throat, and genitals. Vaginal thrush is especially common in women. Although thrush is not typically a serious condition, it can cause discomfort and irritation.

How Does Canesten Internal Cream Work?  

Canesten Internal Cream contains clotrimazole, an antifungal that targets the Candida yeast causing the infection. This active ingredient eliminates the fungus and relieves the symptoms of thrush, ensuring effective treatment in a single application.

Who Can Use Canesten Internal Cream?

Canesten Internal Cream is suitable for adults who have previously been diagnosed with vaginal thrush. However, it is not suitable if you:

  • Are allergic to clotrimazole or any of the cream’s ingredients
  • Are on your period, as the medication may be less effective

Before using this product, you should speak to a medical professional if you:

  • Are under 16 or over 60 years old without advice from a GP or pharmacist
  • Have had more than two thrush infections in the last six months
  • Are experiencing symptoms such as irregular bleeding or abdominal pain

If you’re still unsure whether this cream is suitable for you, read the patient information leaflet or speak with your doctor or pharmacist. 

How To Use Canesten Internal Cream

To get the best results from Canesten Internal Cream, it should be applied before bedtime, using the following steps:

  2. Using the applicator provided, insert the cream as deeply into the vagina as comfortable.

If symptoms do not improve within three days, or if they continue beyond seven days, speak with your GP or pharmacist.

Canesten Internal Cream FAQs

Canesten Internal Cream typically relieves symptoms within 1 to 3 days of application. If you see no improvement after seven days, contacting your GP or pharmacist is important.

Canesten Internal Cream is designed for intravaginal use to treat thrush effectively. It comes in a pre-filled applicator for easy and accurate internal application.

You can get thrush from having sex as it can disturb the natural balance of bacteria and yeast in the vagina. It’s advisable to avoid sexual intercourse until the infection has cleared up to prevent passing the infection back and forth.

Typically, Canesten Internal Cream can be used during pregnancy, but you should first speak with your GP or midwife for tailored advice.

If you’re still unsure how to use this product, read the patient information leaflet for more advice. 

No specific foods or drinks, including alcohol, need to be avoided while using Canesten thrush treatments. However, maintaining a balanced diet and avoiding excessive sugar can help prevent the growth of Candida yeast.

It is recommended to avoid sex while you have thrush as it can irritate the infection and also be passed on to your partner. Wait until the infection has completely cleared before resuming sexual activity.

After refusal of doctors appointment same old same old ring back etc. I was invited at 5.25 to see doctor I drove over immediately. Everything fully explained and checked over I was leaving by 6pm with penicillin for strep throat. Had I followed my doctors receptionist I would probably have suffered longer and increased the chances of a worse infection.I Great efficient service.
