What is Gine-Canesten Vaginal Cream and what is it used for?

It is a medicine for the external vaginal area formulated with clotrimazole, an antifungal that acts against fungal infections. More specifically, it treats vulvovaginal candidiasis, a type of infection caused by a fungus commonly called Candida, while relieving its symptoms.

The most common symptoms are itching, increased vaginal discharge, pain and redness of the vaginal and vulvar area, as well as burning and a burning sensation when urinating.

Who it is for

Intended for use in women and adolescents over 12 years of age with vulvovaginal candidiasis.

How to use

Apply a small amount of cream to the applicator and insert deeply into the vagina, preferably at night, lying on your back with your legs slightly bent. A single application is normally sufficient.

The use of tampons, spermicides, intravaginal douches or other products is not recommended while using this medicine. It should also not be started during menstruation.

Contraindications

Do not use Gine-Canesten:

  • If you are under 12 years of age.

  • In case of allergy or hypersensitivity to clotrimazole, imidazoles or any of the other ingredients included in this medicine.

  • Edema, erythema, pelvic pain, vaginal discomfort, vaginal bleeding.

  • Abdominal pain.

  • Allergic reactions such as urticaria, hypotension, difficulty breathing or syncope.

Pharmaceutical Opinion

Ginecanesten vaginal cream is an antifungal medicine used for the treatment of uncomplicated vulvaginal candidiasis that relieves its symptoms, such as itching, excessive discharge or itching during urination.

To use it, it is recommended that you lie on your back with your legs slightly bent. Then introduce the cream deeply with the help of the cannula provided. The best time to do this is at night, so that the medicine can work for as long as possible and be more effective.
