Medication details

Description

Canesten Thrush 150mg Oral Capsule

This is a single dose capsule containing fluconazole 150mg, taken by mouth for vaginal thrush. One capsule treats the episode, which makes it a practical option for people who would rather not use an internal pessary or cream. It can be taken with or without food.

How it works

Fluconazole is a triazole antifungal. It is absorbed from the gut and carried in the bloodstream to the tissues, where it interferes with the fungal cell membrane so the Candida yeast causing thrush cannot survive. Because it is taken internally it reaches the infection throughout the affected tissue rather than only on the surface.

How to use it

Swallow the capsule whole with water, with or without food. Only one capsule is needed for an episode. Symptoms usually begin to ease within a day or two, with the full effect over several days. An external antifungal cream can be used alongside it if soreness and itching outside are the main complaint.

Who it is for

Pharmacy supply is for women aged 16 to 60 with thrush symptoms. It is not suitable in pregnancy or when breastfeeding, and a clinician should be consulted first if you take other medicines, since fluconazole interacts with a number of them.

Safety and when to get advice

See a clinician rather than self treating if this is your first episode, if you have had more than two episodes in six months, if you have abnormal or bloodstained discharge, ulcers, blisters, lower abdominal pain, pain passing urine or a fever, or if symptoms do not improve within seven days. Recurrent thrush needs assessment rather than repeated single doses. Our UK pharmacy team can answer questions about this product before you buy.

Common questions

How quickly does it work?
Symptoms commonly start to ease within a day or two, with full effect over several days.

Do I need a cream as well?
Not necessarily, though an external cream is often added when outside soreness and itching are prominent.

Can I take it in pregnancy?
No. Speak to a clinician, midwife or pharmacist about suitable options.

Always read the patient information leaflet supplied with the pack before use.

Directions

It's important to follow the instructions for using Canesten Thrush Oral Capsule. The full course of treatment consists of a single capsule that should be swallowed whole with a glass of water, with or without food. The symptoms of thrush should improve within two days, but if no improvement is seen after seven days, consult your doctor. Do not exceed the recommended dosage.

Ingredients

The active substance in Canesten Thrush Oral Capsule is fluconazole, an antifungal agent that fights the cause of infections like thrush. Other ingredients include colloidal silicon dioxide, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, maize starch, sodium lauryl sulfate, and capsule shell components.

Side Effects

Like all medications, Canesten Thrush Oral Capsule can cause side effects, although not everyone experiences them. Common side effects may include headaches, stomach discomfort, diarrhea, and rash. Uncommon side effects may involve changes in blood cells, dizziness, and constipation. Rare side effects might include blood chemistry changes and hair loss. In the case of any unusual effects, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

Warnings

Before using Canesten Thrush Oral Capsule, consider the following:

- If you are allergic to fluconazole or other antifungal products, avoid using this capsule.

- If you have certain medical conditions or are taking specific medications, consult your doctor before use.

- Women and men should be cautious of using Canesten Thrush Oral Capsule in certain conditions, such as abnormal vaginal bleeding or genital sores.

- Pregnant, breastfeeding, or attempting to conceive individuals should consult their doctor before using this product.
