Canesten Oral capsule is an effective single dose treatment for vaginal thrush. The active substance in Canesten Oral Capsule is fluconazole. Fluconazole belongs to a group of medicines called azoles and is an antifungal agent which fights the cause of infections such as thrush. It can also be used to treat your partner if he is suffering from thrush on the penis. Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water (with or without food). Thrush is an infection caused by a yeast called Candida. This yeast normally lives in your body quite happily without doing you any harm. But when the natural pH balance of your vagina is upset - which can easily happen - Candida can multiply. And that's when you may start to itch and develop thrush.
