Single-Dose Internal Treatment for Vaginal Thrush

Canesten® Thrush Pessary is a convenient, one-dose treatment for internal vaginal thrush. Each pessary contains 500mg of clotrimazole, an antifungal medicine that works by targeting the Candida yeast responsible for thrush.

Inserted directly into the vagina using the included applicator, the pessary works overnight to relieve discomfort, discharge, and itching.

What Is the Canesten Pessary Used For?

This pessary treats internal thrush symptoms, including:

  • Thick, white vaginal discharge
  • Soreness or discomfort inside the vagina
  • Irritation during sex or urination

It works by breaking down the fungal cell membrane, stopping the growth of Candida yeast.

How to Use
  • Insert the pessary into the vagina using the provided applicator, preferably at bedtime
  • One 500mg dose is usually sufficient
  • Do not use during menstruation
  • Avoid using tampons or other internal products during treatment
  • External symptoms may also require a separate cream

Always read the enclosed leaflet before use.

Who Can Use the Canesten Pessary?

Suitable for most women aged 16 and over who have previously been diagnosed with thrush.

Do not use if you:
  • Are allergic to clotrimazole or similar antifungal agents
  • Are pregnant or breastfeeding without medical advice
  • Have symptoms such as unusual bleeding, foul-smelling discharge, or lower abdominal pain
  • Are under 16 or over 60 without speaking to a healthcare professional

Possible Side Effects
