WHAT THIS MEDICINE IS FOR
This medicine contains Clotrimazole which belongs to a group of
medicines called anti-
fungals, which act to treat infections caused by fungi.
It can be used to treat the external symptoms of thrush (vulval
candidiasis). It may also be
used by the woman’s sexual partner to treat associated penile thrush
(candidal balanitis).
Thrush is a common infection caused by a yeast (or fungus), which may
live harmlessly in
the vagina without you even noticing it. However, in certain
circumstances, it may develop
into an infection in the vagina and symptoms may spread to the
surrounding area. These
symptoms may include one or more of the following:

Itching of the vagina and surrounding area (the vulva)

Redness and swelling of the tissues of the vagina and vulva

Soreness of the vagina and vulva

A white, non-smelling discharge from the vagina
Thrush may be aggravated by sexual intercourse, but is not a sexually
transmitted disease.
Sometimes however, thrush can be passed to your partner through sexual
intercourse.
If your partner has penile thrush he may have one or more of the
following symptoms:

Soreness and redness of the penis

Tightness of the foreskin

A white non-smelling penile discharge
BEFORE YOU USE THIS MEDICINE
This medicine can be used by adults between the ages of 16 and 60
years.

advice of their
