Patient's question:
I have had candidal vaginitis for a long time and it hasn't been completely cured. I haven't been able to persist in taking medication, and now it frequently flares up. I want to know which medication works best for treatment and what precautions I need to take regularly?Doctor's answer:
Candida can be treated with topical clotrimazole cream or terbinafine cream. When combined with oral medication fluconazole, it can inhibit intestinal candidiasis. Since Candida can be transmitted between couples through sexual activity, it is advisable to avoid sexual contact during treatment. In daily life, it is recommended to avoid spicy foods, seafood, sweet and greasy foods, as well as smoking and alcohol; instead, consume more foods rich in vitamin B.
