Description
CANDID-V3 offers efficient treatment for all vaginal Infections caused by Candida species, Torulopsis species, Trichomonas vaginalis, and certain Gram positive and Gram negative organisms.
Action
Pharmacology: Tolerance: There is virtually no absorption of the active ingredient through the vaginal mucosa. No systemic effects are therefore to be expected. CANDID-V3 Vaginal tablets are well tolerated locally.
Indications/Uses
Vaginal Candidiasis, Vaginal Trichomoniasis, Mixed vaginal Infections, Bacterial vaginitis and Infective Leucorrhea.
Dosage/Direction for Use
One CANDID-V3 Vaginal Tablet should be inserted daily, preferably on retiring to bed at night for 3 consecutive nights. It is to be inserted as deeply as possible into the vagina. This is best achieved with the applicator when lying on the back with the legs pulled in a little towards the body (See Cautions for Usage).
The treatment should not be carried out during menstruation but should be completed before this begins.
For complete relief, it is advisable to apply CANDID Cream to the area around the vagina.
For the prevention of reinfection, the partner should be treated locally with CANDID Cream.
CANDID-V3 Vaginal Tablets are colourless and do not stain the underwear.
