About the Brand
Canesten is the market leader
for treatment of
dermatological and
gynaecological fungal
infections. As well as
offering products to relieve
infections like thrush and
athletes foot, they also
provide a range of feminine
care products.
Canesten contains the original
active ingredient clotrimazol
developed by Bayer.
Clotrimazol was introduced
into the market in 1973
world-wide and its
effectiveness could not be
reached by any other active
ingredient yet. Today,
clotrimazol is the best known
active ingredient in topical
antifungal therapy.
Thrush is an infection caused
by a yeast called Candida.
This yeast normally lives in
your body quite happily
without doing you any harm.
But when the natural pH
balance of your vagina is
upset - which can easily
happen - Candida can multiply.
And that's when you may start
to itch and develop thrush.
