Canesten Thrush Combi Treatment for Complete Relief

 

You receive both internal and external treatment with this dual-action pack containing a 500mg clotrimazole vaginal pessary and 2% clotrimazole external cream. This combination addresses thrush symptoms both inside and outside the vaginal area for comprehensive relief.

The canesten thrush combi provides targeted treatment where you need it most. The pessary treats the internal infection whilst the cream soothes external irritation and itching around the vulval area.

 

How Clotrimazole Eliminates Thrush Infections

 

Clotrimazole belongs to a group of medicines called antifungals. It works by damaging the cell walls of the Candida fungus that causes thrush, preventing it from growing and spreading.

The pessary releases clotrimazole directly into the vagina where it can reach high concentrations to fight the infection. The cream provides additional antifungal action on external areas whilst also moisturising irritated skin. You can explore our full range of thrush treatments for other options.

 

Who Should Use This Thrush Treatment

 

This treatment suits women aged 16-60 years experiencing their first episode of thrush or those with recurring symptoms who have previously been diagnosed by a doctor. You should recognise typical thrush symptoms before using this medicine.

• Thick, white vaginal discharge that doesn't smell
• Itching and irritation around the vagina and vulva
• Soreness and stinging during urination or intercourse
• Redness and swelling of the vulval area

 

Why Choose the Combination Pack

 

The dual approach treats both internal and external symptoms simultaneously, which may provide faster relief than using either treatment alone. Many women find external symptoms persist even after internal treatment, making the cream component particularly valuable.

The single-dose pessary offers convenience whilst the cream can be applied as needed for symptom relief. This eliminates the need to purchase separate products or make multiple treatment decisions.

 

Clinical Suitability and Storage Requirements

 

Store both components below 25°C in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Do not use if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or under 16 years old without medical advice. The pessary may damage latex condoms and diaphragms, so use alternative contraception during treatment.

Consult your doctor before use if you have more than two thrush infections in six months, abnormal vaginal bleeding, or if symptoms don't improve within three days of treatment.
