What is Thrush?

Thrush is a common yeast infection caused by a fungus called Candida. Thrush can occur in the mouth, throat, and genital areas, with vaginal thrush being particularly common among women. While it’s not considered serious, it can cause discomfort and irritation.

How Does The Canesten Oral Thrush Tablet Work?

Canesten Oral Thrush Tablets contain the active ingredient fluconazole, which stops the growth of yeast fungi, causing the infection. Fluconazole targets and kills the fungal cells to treat the infection effectively.

Who Can Use Canesten Oral Thrush Tablet?

Canesten Oral Thrush Capsules are suitable for most adults dealing with thrush symptoms. However, it’s not suitable if you:

  • Are allergic to fluconazole or any other ingredients in the capsule
  • Are taking certain medications that can interact with fluconazole, such as cisapride
  • Have liver or kidney disease
  • Are pregnant, trying to get pregnant or breastfeeding

For Women:

You should not use Canesten Oral Thrush Capsule if you experience any of the following:

  • Abnormal or irregular vaginal bleeding or a blood-stained discharge.
  • Sores, ulcers, or blisters in the vaginal or vulval area.
  • Lower abdominal pain.
  • Difficulty or pain when passing urine.
  • Symptoms such as fever, chills, nausea, or vomiting.
  • Diarrhoea.
  • Foul-smelling discharge from the vagina.

These symptoms could suggest a more severe condition or a different infection, so it’s important to consult with your doctor for an accurate diagnosis and treatment.

For Men:

  • A sexual partner who does not have thrush.
  • Sores, ulcers, or blisters on your penis.
  • An abnormal discharge from your penis.
  • An odour emanating from your penis.
