If you suffer from Thrush, we have a range of treatment options, including Canestan creams and pessaries. It is a good idea to speak with your doctor or pharmacist to find out which is more appropriate for you or try our Duopack, which contains both cream and pessaries and offers a very effective treatment route that works within a few days. Cutting out sugar can be very helpful when you are trying to combat Thrush, since the candida bacteria which causes Thrush infections is sustained by sugar. You may find that a low-sugar diet helps to get rid of Thrush and prevent future infections.

Bacterial vaginosis is common and easily treatable but many women do not realise they have it. It is caused by an overgrowth of bacteria in the vagina and causes a discharge that may smell unpleasant. Canesbalance pessaries are a quick and easy treatment option that can be bought over the counter at your local pharmacy or ordered online if you prefer to receive your medication by post. If you experience recurrent bacterial vaginosis, you should consult your doctor or pharmacist to rule out any underlying reasons for this.

Developing a urinary tract infection such as cystitis can be extremely painful and symptoms can indicate an infection in any part of the urinary system. If you have a UTI, you may notice frequent urination, pain on urination, pain in the abdomen, cloudy or bloody urine or general aches and exhaustion. Utipro Plus AF capsules help to control and prevent urinary tract infections with ease, and we also recommend CystoPurin granules for oral solution, with natural cranberry juice extract to help relieve the symptoms of cystitis fast. If you contract urinary tract infections frequently, you should seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist to ensure that you are using the best treatment options for your situation.
