Candiston from thrush

Even without going into the statistics, and only looking periodically on television advertising it's hard not to notice how urgent the problem of thrush is in women these days. The disease, which is scientifically called candidiasis, refers to the category of pathologies with a long and rather difficult treatment. Perhaps, just this is one of the reasons for infrequent calls to the doctor about the thrush. High prices for antifungal drugs, insufficient effectiveness of external drugs and the negative impact of oral drugs on the female body lead to the fact that women continue to suffer the itching and discomfort. And this despite the fact that there are many drugs that can help women solve their problems. For example, a natural remedy for external use "Candiston" from thrush completely helps to get rid within a week. And the question arises: is it worth to endure torment, is there such a quick and easy solution to the problem?

Indications of the candystona from thrush

Already the name of the drug says that it is a drug of narrow-minded action. Its goal is the fungus of the genus Candida, which is considered the causative agent of thrush - generally harmless, but causing a lot of unpleasant sensations of the disease.

But we must understand that even such a seemingly innocuous illness as a thrush in a neglected form can lead to the emergence of more dangerous pathologies of the inflammatory plan: cystitis, inflammation of the vaginal mucosa, uterus, ovaries, the formation of polyps and cysts, infection of the pelvic organs. The fungus irritation of the woman's external genitalia leads to the formation of wounds on them, which are easily affected by a bacterial infection.

And candidiasis is a fairly contagious disease that easily passes to a partner for sex. Fungus can safely settle under the foreskin in men, causing permanent itching, irritation and even inflammation of the glans penis. So the disease is unpleasant for both women and men, which usually requires the treatment of both partners. And even if the disease does not particularly bother the man, he himself is a danger to his potential sexual partners.

All this speaks in favor of the fact that the fungus needs to be treated. But what are the causes of its occurrence and what manifestations make the doctor prescribe antifungal agents, such as Candidon, from the thrush to the patient ?

It is wrong to think that the fungus settles only where it is damp and dirty. It's not even about ignoring the requirements of genital hygiene. The cause of fungal infection, which in the inactive state is present in the body of each of us, is weakened immunity and a violation of the internal microflora of the body.

Most often it's about the imbalance of the bacterial flora of the vagina, so usually when we hear the word thrush, then we think about this form of pathology, called vaginal candidiasis.

What factors contribute to the imbalance of vaginal microflora in women? It can be a change of sexual partner, intimate hygiene with the use of unsuitable specialized or usual body detergents, chronic inflammations and antibiotic therapy, killing immunity, taking other medications that negatively affect the inner environment of the vagina, including some antifungal drugs used to treat thrush.

Sometimes women in an effort to get rid of thrush with alternative drugs and pharmaceuticals only exacerbate the problem. Applying herbs and medicines for syringing with thrush, they do not think that frequent cleaning procedures clean the vagina not only from harmful, but also from beneficial microflora, thereby violating a much needed balance. And oral pharmaceuticals can simply have such an unpleasant side effect.

Another problem is the habit of treating the thrush with antibiotics in an old fashion. Since such treatment yielded certain results and did not require large expenditures, the opinion that the fungus can be destroyed with the help of antibacterial agents was fixed in the minds of people. They do not rush to see a doctor for a diagnosis and a prescription for really effective drugs, but they run to the pharmacy for cheap antibiotics.

For a time, a woman can note a decrease in the intensity of the symptoms, which gives hope for recovery. In fact, antibiotics only aggravate the situation, and against the background of the microflora that they have broken, the fungus begins to develop even more actively.

Now there is no possibility to postpone the visit to the doctor, as, indeed, the forces, because the symptoms of candidiasis do not give the woman peace, day or night. However, now it will not be easy to cope with the fungus. Yes, and drugs will have to be selected carefully, so as not to aggravate the course of the disease, causing even more irritation of the vaginal mucosa, which is typical for some local remedies, or contributing to a further shift in the balance of microflora with systemic drugs.

Suspicion of a thrush at the doctor cause complaints about pulling pains in the lower abdomen, constant itching in the genital area and in the vagina, white discharge, in a consistency resembling cottage cheese. These are specific symptoms of the disease, which help to make a diagnosis with great accuracy even before the examination of smears.

The drug "Candiston" doctors prescribe for thrush with the aim of promptly alleviating the condition of a woman (it is believed that he quickly cures the symptoms of the disease) and the destruction of a malignant fungus.

Release form

We must immediately say that the form of the drug is a bit unusual for the drugs used to combat vaginal candidiasis. The medicine is produced in the form of a spray, which would seem to be more relevant for preparations for the treatment of fungus on the feet or in the mouth. This point raises some doubts about the effectiveness of the drug, which is very problematic to spray inside the vagina, where the fungal infection is implied and localized.

For other sprays used in the treatment of thrush, read this article.

Nevertheless, the manufacturer considers this form of release to be the most effective and suggests spraying the medicine on the external genitalia, spreading the labia to the sides to ensure deeper penetration. In his opinion, this is quite enough to combat the fungus Candida in the vagina, which is confirmed by multiple positive responses about the drug.

The fact is that popular local remedies for milkweed in the form of ointments act mainly on the surface of the mucosa, where the bulk of fungi live. The liquid sprayed onto the surface of the genital organs has better penetrating abilities, i. E. It acts not only on the surface of the vaginal mucosa, but also in deeper tissues, where fungal spores can penetrate. Such a deep action provides a persistent effect and a low risk of recurrence of the disease, which is often observed after treatment with many antifungal external agents.

Now, with regard to the composition of the drug. On assurance of pharmacists the preparation contains only natural components effective in fighting fungal infection. Biological formula of the drug includes:

• Caprylic coconut acid, which belongs to the category of fatty acids with a destructive effect on representatives of Candida fungus and some bacteria (in parallel, it has a moisturizing and softening effect),
• L-thymol - a substance contained in thyme and oregano (oregano), included in the preparation (a component with a pronounced antimicrobial and antifungal activity, effective against new strains resistant to the synthetic drugs used),
• Inulin is a unique carbohydrate that helps purify the vagina from pathogenic bacteria, viruses of most of the Candida strains, without affecting the beneficial microflora (additionally prevents malignancy of cells),
• extract of aloe vera (contained in it saponins and emodins contribute to the destruction of fungi, pathogenic bacteria and viruses, increase local immunity and the body's ability to resist the disease).

A very important feature of the drug is its high antibacterial and antifungal activity, but the useful microflora of the vagina remains intact and helps maintain the internal environment of female "nadr".

Pharmacodynamics

Having become acquainted with the components of a natural and effective remedy for thrush under the sonorous name "Candiston", you can draw definite conclusions about how the drug works against pathogens, ie, about its pharmacodynamics, and what results can be expected from its application.

Based on the composition of the drug and the effects of various components, we conclude that the drug fights not only with fungal infection (and it is effective against most representatives of the genus Candida, including new mutated strains that have developed resistance to previously used drugs), but also with pathogens / viruses , which also actively multiply against a background of reduced immunity.

And that is not all. After defeating an infection of any kind, a natural medicine helps to restore the broken vaginal microflora, increase local immunity, prevent the development of inflammatory and viral pathologies (eg genital herpes), restore the mucosa of internal and external genital organs. It is believed that the spray contributes to the normalization of the work not only of the sexual, but also the urinary system, because irritation of the mucous of the genitals often causes pain and cuts when urinating.

An indicative moment in the treatment of thrush with the drug "Candiston" is its speed. Relief comes from the first day of spray application. And this is not just a masking of symptoms (as symptomatic treatment says), but a serious struggle with the cause of the disease.

After all, if you judge, the fungus itself is not dangerous if the vaginal microflora is normal. Thus, the cause of candidiasis is to understand exactly the imbalance of microflora. And "Candiston" helps to simultaneously destroy excessively multiplying fungi and normalize the microflora of the internal environment of the female organism so that harmful microorganisms (fungi, bacteria, viruses) will no longer be tempted to repeat the "holiday", forcing the woman to go through painful itching and discomfort again.

Another useful point is the lack of addiction. If due to some reasons the microflora of the vagina is again broken and the fungus recovers again, there is no need to change the drug due to the development of resistance to it from pathogenic microorganisms. For 2 years of the drug's existence, no new resistant strains of the fungus appeared.

Dosing and administration

As we already mentioned, the drug is released in a form unusual for treatment of thrush. Usually all local medicines for candidiasis are injected deep inside the vagina, whether it's vaginal tablets or candles or an antifungal cream. It is difficult to imagine how you can enter deep into the vagina fluid, which also must be sprayed.

But the manufacturer of the drug claims that a deep injection is not required, since the medicine is capable of penetrating into the tissues of the mucosa and spreading through them. This seems a little strange and raises certain doubts, but rave reviews that occur not only on the official website and distributor sites, confirm the effectiveness of the drug even with this method of use.

So, how do you use a medical spray? To begin with, it should be said that, like any other external medicine, Candiston requires some preparation of the skin and mucous membranes to apply the drug. In other words, they must be thoroughly cleaned (washed) with the help of warm water without any detergents, and especially soap, which does not have the best effect on the microflora of the vagina.

The woman will need to hygiene not only the labia and vagina (as far as possible with normal hygiene procedures), but also the perineum, where pathogenic microorganisms can also accumulate. After hygienic procedures, the skin can be dried with a soft moisture-absorbing material (preferably, if it is a disposable tissue, otherwise it will have to be washed regularly).

Only after this, from a distance of about 10 cm, the drug can be sprayed onto the genital area. You need to try to make sure that the spray is not only on the labia but also on the entrance to the vagina.

Treatment of vaginal yeast requires a daily change of underwear. It is best to do this after the spray application procedure. Linen should be taken from natural fabrics, which will not create a greenhouse effect, favorable for the reproduction of fungi and bacteria (lovers of heat and moisture). The laundry must be clean (washed and ironed with a hot iron).

The manufacturer of the "Candiston" spray from the thrush recommends that the treatment be performed in the evening, before going to bed for a week. This time is usually enough for all the symptoms of vaginal candidiasis to disappear. At the same time, women feel relief after a couple of hours after using an unusual antifungal agent.

In some sources, you can find information that the spray should be applied 3 times a day. But the reviews show that this is not necessary, because in any case, the symptoms disappear after 5-7 days, less often it takes a few more days for the final victory over the fungus.

Contraindications

Spray from thrush Candidon is considered an organic external remedy, and although it is believed that it is able to penetrate the tissues and possibly into the systemic circulation, the components of the drug are unlikely to harm a woman's body. The components of the drug are designed to normalize the microflora of the vagina and to destroy fungi by destroying their cell membranes. But they do not have such an effect on human cells.

Selective antifungal action of the components of the spray is supported by the ability to restore the beneficial microflora of the vagina, and it creates an environment in which the fungal infection is not able to live and reproduce for a long time. With a stable balance of internal microflora, milkmaids are not to be feared.

As for the possibility of allergic reactions, it is extremely low. Caprylic acid - a substance from the pulp of coconut, causing allergy only in isolated cases, if it is taken orally. Thymus and oregano are considered herbs, which will rather help fight allergies than will cause it. Allergic reactions to aloe - this is also more likely an exception to the rules.

Estimating the composition of the drug from its allergenicity can be understood that hypersensitivity reactions to it can occur only in isolated cases. At least in multiple reviews of the drug, they are not even mentioned.

It turns out that neither young girls during puberty, nor wise women have nothing to fear. The drug with the same effectiveness helps to cope with the disease and at the same time, through the normalization of microflora, it prevents its recurrence.

As for age restrictions, they are relative. A doctor can offer treatment with a Candidon spray at any age. That's only its use in children is limited, because the medicine, according to the manufacturer's annotation, is intended for the treatment of vaginal candidiasis, which is possible in young girls in connection with the restructuring of the body and women who live sexually. In childhood, most often talk about thrush with the localization in the oral cavity and skin folds, the reproductive organs of the child are rarely affected by fungi.

The Russian manufacturer does not see any contraindications for the treatment of children. At least, they are not mentioned in the instructions. On the official website, you can find ads that are suitable for treating girls and girls without specifying a specific age range.

You can consult a doctor about the possibilities of treating the child with the described spray, but it is more likely that the pediatrician will give preference to the proven pharmacy products to which Candidon, distributed on the Internet, does not apply. Nevertheless, on the Internet you can find quite a lot of positive reviews of doctors who rely on the results of treatment for their patients.

The official instruction does not see any restrictions on the use of the spray. In informal contraindications to use, you can find only the period of menstruation or pregnancy. But these contraindications are considered relative. Pregnant women can consult with their doctor, and with his permission to conduct a course of treatment with a natural spray "Candiston", even during pregnancy, without waiting for the birth of the baby. And menstruation in general is a temporary phenomenon, which can only postpone the beginning of treatment for a week.

Overdose

As for the overdose, then with external application it is simply impossible. And it is unlikely that someone will excessively rinse their genitals with expensive means. But even in such an incredible case, the drug will not have a negative effect on the body, because it does not have toxic substances in its composition.

Interactions with other drugs

Since the remedy for thrush "Candidon" is not found in pharmacies, because you can order it only on the Internet, more or less complete information about the product is owned only by the one who purchased it. For example, on the official site there is no information about drug interaction with other drugs. But you can find information that this drug was used in the complex treatment of women's problems, and no negative reactions were observed, which is not surprising, given the natural composition of the drug.

[10], [11]

Storage conditions

There is no specific information on the storage conditions and the shelf life of the spray from vaginal candidiasis. According to some posts, it can be concluded that the medicine can be stored for at least 2 years, and women in the reviews sometimes refer to the long shelf-life of the drug.

But you need to take into account that one course takes about half the bottle. If we are talking about the treatment of chronic recurrent thrush, after six months you may need a repeat preventive course, for which just the rest of the medicine is useful.

Usually, when ordering a drug, the distributor indicates the batch number and the expiration date of the medication (a certain date), so that if the information on the vial does not match the purchase, you can refuse, especially since it is not about prepayment. Payment of the parcel is effected upon receipt by mail.

When ordering the goods, the buyer has the opportunity to consult the operator by phone and about the application or storage of the drug.

Analogues "Candiston" from thrush

Let's see, what is the usual treatment for thrush in the environment of gynecologists? In most cases, they prescribe local preparations in the form of ointments and creams (" Pimafucin ", " Clotrimazole ", " Flukonazol ", " Zalain ", "Ketodin," etc.). Most of the drugs from thrush also have forms of release in the form of vaginal tablets and suppositories. Apply also a solution for douching under the name "Tetraborate sodium" (aka borax in glycerin).

If the thrush is in a neglected condition, has a chronic course characterized by frequent relapses, doctors can prescribe additional systemic drugs in the form of tablets for oral administration ("Fluconazole", "Clotrimazole", etc.), which, as is known, do not on the condition of the mucous GIT.

Other drugs from thrush:

• Fucis
• Nystatin
• Flucostat
• Diflucol

It must be said that all this is a means of synthetic origin, which exert a toxic effect not on the body, so their application in childhood and during pregnancy is considered undesirable. Especially dangerous is their application to the damaged skin, which is not uncommon with thrush, accompanied by intolerable itching and irritation of mucous membranes.

The only way out is to abandon the potent synthetic antifungal agents in favor of drugs from natural components that have a destructive effect on fungi. And just such a drug is "Candiston". But is this the only effective non-synthetic drug?

If you go on the sites describing the drug "Candiston", you can find the claim that this tool has no analogues either in Russia or in the world market. Allegedly it contains a unique carefully selected set of natural ingredients that provides it with an unmatched effect and is not repeated in any of the known medicines.

In fact, everything is somewhat different. So, the Russian company "United Pharma" once released almost the full analog of "Kandiston", but in a different form. The drug has the name "Candinorm".

"Kandinorm Complex Gel" in its composition practically does not differ from the drug "Candidon" and is also used for thrush. The drug contains a caprylic acid derivative (Caprylil glycol), L-isomer thymol, saponins and aloe emodins, inulin, but plus it also contains a unique CrystalMatrix-FS system that accelerates and enhances the effectiveness of various components of the drug.

Another advantage of the drug "Kandinorm" can be considered the possibility of its acquisition in the pharmacy, which reduces the likelihood of a counterfeit. At the very least, you can always file a claim with the seller demanding compensation. True, the pharmacy does not offer such shares on "Kandinorm" (and it is much cheaper), as one can meet on "Candiston", whose price is reduced to almost 1 ruble.

As for the form of the drug, this complex product is available in the form of a gel. In the package we find 2 types of gel-like remedy, one of which is placed in tubes and has a fungicidal (antifungal action), and the second is applied in a 6 ml bottle (in a quantity of 3 pieces) with a special applicator for deep insertion into the vagina and has the property of restoring a useful microflora of the vagina.

Apply the drug 1 or 2 times a day after hygiene procedures. Usually the course of treatment lasts only 3 days, which corresponds to the volume of 1 package of the drug. And the reviews indicate a high efficacy of the drug, the treatment of which had much better and quicker results than using traditional antidepressant drugs.

If there are problems with the acquisition of the above-described natural remedies, you can buy an aloe vera gel, which, for the treatment of vaginal candidiasis, is moistened with tampons and placed in the vagina. By the way, aloe vera gel is considered a multifunctional drug that can be used not only to treat thrush.

Reviews about the drug "Candiston"

In our time, when everything is bought and sold, it is very difficult to rely on reviews, bundles stamped on the Internet and as two drops of water similar to each other, because they can also be paid for. And both positive and negative reviews are bought.

Of real value is only the opinion about the drug, heard from a person who, as they say, "on one's skin" experienced the action of a medicine or the opinion of a doctor who evaluated the effectiveness of the drug on the example of many patients. But since the drug "Candiston", used from a yeast infection in gynecology, is still quite a new remedy, not all have a girlfriend who checked the medicine on herself. Yes, and doctors are not all quite familiar with the effect of the drug, because many women are inclined to themselves to make a diagnosis and prescribe a treatment in the details of which doctors are not always placed.

We still have to rely on reviews on the Internet, most of which are enthusiastic-positive, but there are also some strictly negative opinions. Negative reviews are usually left by those who came across a fake, or did not test the drug, but only discusses the effectiveness of its components, questioning the antifungal properties of thymol and aloe vera. But in this case, it is necessary to question the effectiveness of the drug "Kandinorm" with a similar composition, which is prescribed to their patients by doctors.

Positive feedback about both drugs is much more than negative. Women note the rapid disappearance of the symptoms of the fungus, which did not help to get rid of earlier treatment, and a persistent result (thrush does not return within six months or more).

I like women and the fact that the drug can be treated not only acute disease, but also chronic with a recurrent course, in which both local drugs and systemic antifungal agents are usually prescribed. "Kandiston" also helps to get rid of neglected thrush, without having a negative effect on the stomach, kidneys, liver.

There is information that initially "Candiston" was developed as an auxiliary tool for the treatment of vaginal candidiasis (something like "Lactacid"), but its testing showed high effectiveness of the drug in combating fungi, which allowed to designate it as the main treatment. Prescribe the drug and as a preventive tool for diseases of the genitourinary system, because in this case there is a high probability of a violation of the microflora of the vagina, which can provoke an increased growth of fungi and bacteria in it.

There is no trust in posts and advertising on the Internet, do not hesitate to contact your gynecologist, knock on the doors of other doctors who will help clarify the situation and get closer to the truth about medications from the Internet. Not all of them are as bad as we suppose. Most often, the fault of the lack of a positive result of treatment are forgery (dummies with a well-known label and active advertising).

Perhaps over time, when the drug will be tested already by a large number of women, it will be possible to get reliable information about it, which will not cause today's doubts. But for the time being it is necessary to base on available information about the effectiveness of the drug and decide for oneself, apply Candidist from thrush, or refrain from buying a widely advertised drug sold through the Internet, and give preference to traditional treatment and alternative means, including aloe juice , and thyme, and oregano oil.
