Clotrimazole vaginal. Tablet use for vaginal candidiasis dose and frequency
Reading Document
For vaginal candidiasis, clotrimazole vaginal tablets are commonly used as:
- 100 mg vaginal tablet: insert 1 tablet intravaginally at bedtime for 6 nights
- Alternative regimens (brand/formulation dependent):
- 200 mg nightly for 3 nights
- 500 mg single intravaginal dose (one-time)
Key points:
- Best inserted at night (less leakage).
- Complete the full course even if symptoms improve early.
- If symptoms persist after treatment or recur frequently, seek clinician review (to confirm diagnosis and rule out non-albicans species or other causes).
