Gynaemed Vaginal Cream 30g - Effective Antifungal Treatment
Gynaemed Vaginal Cream 30g is a high-strength antifungal treatment formulated to combat vulvovaginal candidiasis, commonly referred to in Nigeria as a "toilet infection." This cream contains Clotrimazole 2% w/w, a proven ingredient that provides fast relief from the discomfort associated with yeast infections.
What is Gynaemed Cream used for?
Gynaemed is primarily used to treat vaginal yeast infections caused by Candida. It works by stopping the growth of the fungus, thereby clearing the infection and relieving symptoms such as:
- Persistent vaginal itching and irritation.
- Unusual, thick, white vaginal discharge.
- Redness, swelling, or a burning sensation in the vaginal area.
How to use Gynaemed Cream
For effective results, Gynaemed should be used as directed by a healthcare professional or following these general guidelines:
- Internal Application: Use the provided applicator to insert approximately 5g of the cream deep into the vagina once daily, preferably at bedtime, for 3 to 6 consecutive days.
- External Relief: To manage external itching or burning on the vulva, apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area 2 to 3 times daily.
- Always wash your hands before and after application.
Safety and Precautions
While Gynaemed is highly effective, users should observe the following:
- Pregnancy: If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor or a GoMed pharmacist before starting treatment.
- Course Completion: Complete the full prescribed course, even if symptoms improve quickly, to ensure the infection does not return.
- Barrier Contraception: This cream can weaken latex condoms and diaphragms. It is advisable to use alternative contraceptive methods during treatment.
If symptoms do not improve after the full course or if they recur frequently, please consult a doctor or speak with a GoMed pharmacist for a professional consultation.
