Labesten 1% Clotrimazole Vaginal Pessaries - 1 Strip of 6 Suppositories
Vaginal candidiasis (yeast infections) cause severe discomfort, intense itching, and disruptive "cottage-cheese" like discharge. In tropical climates, these infections can be particularly uncomfortable. Labesten 1% Pessaries deliver targeted, fast-acting relief directly to the site of infection. Powered by Clotrimazole, these solid suppositories melt at body temperature to rapidly eliminate fungal overgrowth and help restore the natural microbial balance of the vaginal flora.
How to Use / Operate
Wash hands thoroughly. Insert one pessary deep into the vagina once daily, preferably at bedtime, for 6 consecutive days. It is recommended to wear a panty liner as the suppository will melt and may cause slight leakage overnight.
