Specializes in Internal Medicine - Diabetology

Yes: Vagistat-1 (tioconazole) has been found to be effective as a single- dose treatment for vulvovaginal candidiasis. Using the prefilled applicator, insert one applicator- full intravaginally. Administration of vagistat-1 (tioconazole) just prior to bedtime may be preferred.
