Dear irritated
Try using Canesten vaginal suppositories or one of the generic anti thrush creams you can buy at the chemist.

Hi

You get tablets but I did not find it to be effective in any way. What helped for me is Canesten cream and Culturelle vaginal capsules (to be inserted at bed time). Good luck.
