Use Candid-CL Gel as per the instructions below:

• Clean your hands thoroughly before and after using this gel.

• For detailed instructions or personal adjustments, consult your doctor for specific advice.

Candid-CL Gel is applied topically.

Candid-CL Gel contains two active ingredients:

• Clotrimazole (2% w/w): Clotrimazole works by disrupting the protective barrier in the fungal cells, making it hard for them to function properly. This disruption prevents the fungi from producing a substance called ergosterol, which is crucial for their growth and survival. Without enough ergosterol, the fungal cells become weak, unable to grow, and eventually die off.

• Clindamycin (2% w/w): Clindamycin is a lincosamide antibiotic that fights bacterial infections. It works by targeting the bacteria in your body and preventing them from making the proteins they need to survive. This action disrupts the bacteria's ability to multiply and spread, ultimately helping your body to fight off the infection.

• Store Candid-CL Gel below 25°C for optimal preservation.

• Keep the tube tightly sealed to prevent exposure to air and moisture.

• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion.

• Remember to use this gel before the expiration date marked on the tube.

• Drinking plenty of water and maintaining good personal hygiene can help manage the conditions for which this gel is prescribed, as hydration and cleanliness can support overall vaginal health.

• Consuming probiotics, found in yoghurt or other fermented foods, promotes healthy bacterial balance in your body, which can help manage vaginal infections caused by an imbalance of bacteria.
