Additional Information
Vaginal candidiasis can be transmitted to sexual partners. Inform your partner of the infection; if they experience symptoms such as genital itching or redness, they should see a physician promptly.
To prevent transmitting the infection to your partner, avoid sexual intercourse during use.
To maintain the efficacy of the medication, do not wash inside the vagina.
To prevent irritation to the affected area, do not use spermicides during use.
When bathing, avoid using soap on the external genitalia — rinse with lukewarm water only.
Candida thrives in warm, humid conditions. Keep the area as dry as possible: thoroughly dry the outer vaginal area after bathing or swimming; change wet swimwear promptly; change sanitary pads and other hygiene products frequently; wear breathable cotton underwear.
Use clean underwear and towels daily. Do not share towels with family members to prevent infection.
Candida is naturally present in the intestines. When using the toilet, always wipe from front to back to prevent the spread of intestinal bacteria.
Even if itching improves, avoid scratching the external genitalia, as scratching can worsen irritation and potentially spread the infection.
