Canex T

Is canex t similar to lamiil? ## Hi Ridwaan, Cantex T contains the active ingredient Clotrimazole, which is an antifungal medication commonly used in the treatment of fungal infections (of both humans and other animals) such as vaginal yeast infections, oral thrush, and ringworm. It is also used to treat athlete's foot and jock itch. Side effects include skin rash, hives, blistering, burning, itching, peeling, redness, stinging, swelling, or other sign of skin irritation. Lamisil contains the active ingredient Terbinafine hydrochloride, which is a synthetic allylamine antifungal developed by Novartis.

my virgina is itching around vulva, i went to the pharmacy and they gave me canex v cream cant i just apply it only around vulva since it is not itching on the inside? ## No, using it that way will not effectively eradicate a yeast infection, if that's what is causing the itching. To do that, it needs to be inserted inside your vagina, just as instructed. Have you consulted your doctor to confirm whether or not you have a yeast infection?

I used Canex V during my fertile period for thrush infection due to antibiotics. Is it possible to still be able to get pregnant while you are using it. ## From what I could gather, Canex V contains the active ingredient Clotrimazole, which is an anti-fungal medication. So yes, it is normally used to treat things such as yeast/thrush infections. Regarding it's use during pregnancy, Clotrimazole topical has been assigned to pregnancy category B by the FDA. In which case animals who were given high doses intravaginally have not revealed evidence of teratogenicity. However, high "oral" doses resulted in embryotoxicity and maternal toxicity. In clinical trials involving women in their second and third trimester, Clotrimazole treatment of vaginal candidiasis was not associated wi...

I'm 7 weeks pregnant and have thrush. My doctor gave me canex v to use. However when I got home the leaflet with the dasage and directions were not in the package. How often do I have to insert the cream and for how long? Once a day at night? Also is this safe to use during pregnancy? ## Hi... each time after I have urinated I experience vaginal pains as if something needs to be expelled. I would like to know if taking Canex V could help? ## Hello, Shwele! How are you? If it is occurring during, or after urination, then you may have a bladder infection, or a urinary tract infection, which would require an antibiotic, so no Canex V would not help with that. The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects of antibiotics as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin ...

It is itchy in my vagina. It's so irritating and itchy all the time and when i scratch, it leaves me with pain. Today i went to the pharmacy and they gave me canex v, cpl alliance ciprofloxacin 500 and adco - metronidazome 400mg. I dont know if it will work. ## Have you consulted a doctor? From the symptoms, it seems you may have a severe yeast infection and, if that is the case, the Canex V cream and the Metronidazole, which are both antifungals, may help, but the Ciprofloxacin could actually just make it worse. ## Can canex v cream help me conceive a child? ## Yesterday night I used da canex v cream n this morning I was on periods, is it doing fine does it have to get me in periods to heal? ## I got canex v today n started using it..then it started itching some more..is that norma...

Can a man use canex crean on his private part when he have some balls their? ## Hello, Don! How are you? I can't find anything that specifically lists what the ingredient is in Canex, there are various things claiming what it is, but nothing verified. However, it is listed as being an antifungal agent that can be used to treat yeast infections and other fungal skin infections, which means that it can be used by men or women, it is not gender specific. However, it will only treat fungal infections, according to the information I found, so you should see your doctor for a proper diagnosis, before using it. If your problem is caused by something else, such as a virus or bacterial infection, then this cream isn't going to help. Are there any other questions or concerns? ## Hi I woul...

I have a yeast infection and want to know if I HAVE to insert the cream into my vagina? Can I not just apply it around vulva? ## No, it's not going to work if you do that, you won't absorb enough of it to treat the yeast infection. There is no need to be afraid of inserting it, it's not going to hurt anything, it's very quick and easy to do and once you feel better, you'll wonder why you were worried about it. What scares you about it? I'm female and I've had to do it, plus I've also had a child, so post back with your concerns, I'll be happy to help! :-)

Hie i started using Canex V 3 days ago along with metro and cifloc 500.i.m alredy near my period days can i start early becoz from wat i.m seeing its no longer spotting bt period ## Hello, Tatenda! How are you? Yes, it is possible for your cycle to become irregular, anytime you've been ill or had to take a medication. However, it would be best to have it checked out to be sure. The FDA lists spotting as one of the typical side effects of Canex V, so it could also just be due to that, even though it seems heavier, because it can irritate the cervix. Other side effects may include irritation and vaginal discharge. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hi I used a lot of canex t on my vigina and the next morning it was burning such a lot and now the rash is even worse is it maybe of the amount that I used I have this problem since the age of 2 and dr said my skin is sensitive and I will out grow it but I'm now 23 years and still have this problem ## Hello, Blommie! How are you? This is an antifungal cream used to treat yeast infections and it's never a good idea to use a lot of it, you should only use the amount directed. Did your doctor tell you to use it for the rash? As listed by the FDA, skin irritation, redness and dryness can be side effects.
