USE: treats vaginal yeast infections
1 THIS PRODUCT CURES MOST RECURRENT VAGINAL YEAST INFECTIONS
IF THIS IS THE FIRST TIME YOU HAVE HAD VAGINAL ITCH AND DISCOMFORT, CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR. IF YOU HAVE HAD A DOCTOR DIAGNOSE A VAGINAL YEAST INFECTION BEFORE AND HAVE THE SAME SYMPTOMS NOW, USE THIS OINTMENT AS DIRECTED. THIS PRODUCT IS FOR THE TREATMENT OF RECURRENT VAGINAL YEAST INFECTIONS ONLY. IT DOES NOT TREAT OTHER INFECTIONS AND DOES NOT PREVENT PREGNANCY.
This product, a vaginal ointment that contains an antifungal medicine, works to cure most recurrent vaginal yeast infections by killing the overgrowth of yeast.
2 WHAT IS A VAGINAL YEAST INFECTION (CANDIDIASIS)?
A yeast infection is caused by an organism called Candida, which is a type of yeast. Healthy women usually have this yeast in the vagina. Either an overgrowth or rapid growth of this yeast can cause a vaginal yeast infection. The symptoms of a vaginal yeast infection can include any or all of the following:
■ Vaginal itching - Itching can range from mild to intense.
■ Vaginal discharge - This discharge may be thick like paste or lumpy like cottage cheese.
■ Vaginal soreness, burning or irritation – The vagina can feel sore inside or there can be a burning sensation, particularly during vaginal intercourse.
■ Rash or redness - Rash or redness may occur around the vagina (vulvar irritation).
NOTE: Vaginal discharge that is different from the above, for example, a yellow/green discharge or a discharge that smells "fishy" (foul-smelling), may indicate that you have something other than a yeast infection. If this is the case, you should consult your doctor before using this product.
DO NOT USE TAMPONS while using this medicine. Use sanitary napkins instead.
7 ADVERSE REACTIONS (SIDE EFFECTS)
A temporary increase in vaginal burning, itching and/or irritation may be experienced upon insertion of this ointment. These reactions, in addition to vaginal swelling or redness; difficulty or burning on urination; headache; abdominal pain/cramping and upper respiratory infection have been reported with the use of this product. If you experience any of these, consult your doctor.

Q. Does my partner need to be treated?
Yeast infections occur less frequently in men than in women. However, if your partner has any of the following symptoms: itching, redness or discomfort in the genital area, he should see a doctor and mention that you are treating a vaginal yeast infection.
Q. Can I use feminine hygiene products (such as douche) while I have a vaginal yeast infection?
It is best not to use any vaginal preparations while you have a yeast infection including douches, feminine hygiene sprays, contraceptive foams, inserts, or jellies.
9 FOR BEST RESULTS...
■ Wear cotton underwear and loose-fitting clothes - Yeast grow in warm, moist environments. Wearing loose-fitting, cotton clothes helps create a cooler environment, which makes it more difficult for yeast to grow.
■ Change out of wet bathing suit quickly – Dampness is more likely to encourage the growth of yeast.
■ Use proper hygiene - Wipe from front to rear (away from vagina) after a bowel movement or urination.
■ Discuss with your doctor any medication you are now taking - Certain types of medication can make your vagina more prone to infection.
