A member asked:
The canesten pessary what kind of infections does it clear? and one tablet is enough?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yeast: Canesten, or clotrimazole, is an antifungal and used to treat yeast infections. One dose should be enough but only works internally. If there is a yeast infection externally as well, on the labi, a Clotrimazole cream should also be used.
