Gyno-Daktarin 400mg (3 Vaginal Ovules)

Gyno-Daktarin 400mg: Fast Relief for Vaginal Yeast Infections

Gyno-Daktarin 400mg is a trusted antifungal treatment specifically formulated to combat vulvovaginal candidiasis, commonly known as vaginal thrush or "toilet infection" in Nigeria. Manufactured by Janssen-Cilag, this short-course therapy provides rapid relief from the intense itching and discomfort associated with yeast infections.

How Gyno-Daktarin Works

The active ingredient in Gyno-Daktarin is Miconazole nitrate (400mg). This is a powerful antifungal that destroys the cell membranes of fungi like Candida albicans. It also provides secondary antibacterial activity against certain Gram-positive bacteria that can often complicate vaginal infections.

How to Use Gyno-Daktarin 3 Ovules (Vaginal Inserts)

For the best results and to ensure the infection is cleared, follow these steps:

1. Dosage: Use one 400mg ovule daily for three consecutive days.
2. Timing: It is best to insert the ovule at bedtime. This allows the medication to work while you are lying down, minimizing leakage.
3. Application: Wash your hands thoroughly. Insert the "insert" (ovule) as deeply as possible into the vagina using your finger.
4. Consistency: Complete the full 3-day treatment even if your symptoms disappear after the first day. This prevents the infection from returning.

Safety and Precautions

• Pregnancy & Breastfeeding: Always consult a GoMed pharmacist or your doctor before using this medication if you are pregnant or nursing.
• Latex Products: Miconazole can weaken latex materials used in condoms and diaphragms. It is advisable to use other forms of contraception during treatment.
• Pepperish Sensation: Some women may experience a mild "pepperish" or burning sensation upon insertion. This is usually temporary. If the irritation is severe, stop use and consult a professional.
