Description

How It Works

Canesten Oral Thrush Capsule contains 150mg of fluconazole, an antifungal agent from the triazole class. It works by inhibiting an enzyme essential to fungal cell membranes. Without this enzyme, the cell structure weakens and dies, resolving the infection.
Unlike topical creams, this oral capsule is absorbed into the bloodstream and acts systemically. This means it reaches areas that creams or pessaries cannot, providing thorough coverage for internal fungal infections like vaginal or oral thrush.

Why Choose Canesten Oral Thrush Capsule

Canesten is a trusted name in antifungal treatment, and this capsule offers a fast, one-dose solution. Benefits include:
Single oral dose — convenient and mess-free

Effective within 24 to 72 hours

Suitable for women, men, and non-binary users

Targets both vaginal and oral thrush symptoms

Often recommended by pharmacists for recurrent infections

Canesten Oral Capsule is especially helpful when topical treatment isn’t preferred or feasible. Its systemic action also makes it ideal for those prone to repeated episodes of thrush.

Important Note

While effective, Canesten Oral Thrush Capsule may not be suitable for everyone. Always speak to a pharmacist before use, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking any other medications. Do not use if you have liver disease or known sensitivity to azole antifungals. This medicine may interact with statins, antibiotics, and blood thinners like warfarin. Avoid alcohol while taking fluconazole. If symptoms do not improve within seven days or worsen, seek further medical advice.
