Indications - Fenticonazole Nitrate vaginal tablet is indicated for: Genital candidiasis (vulvovaginitis, colpitis, infectious fluor) Trichomonasis Vaginal infections sustained by mixed forms of Trichomonas vaginalis and Candida albicans.

Dosage & Administration - Trichomonas or mixed (Trichomonas and Candida albicans) vaginal infections: One 600 mg VT (followed by a second administration 24 hours later, if necessary). Candida albicans infections: One single 600 mg VT administration in the evening. Should the symptoms persist, a second administration may be repeated after three days. The tablet must be introduced deep into the vagina and pushed well up to the fornix. To avoid re-infection, it is recommended that the partner undergoes concurrent treatment with Fenticonazole Cream or similar Azole Cream.

Side Effects - After intravaginal administration slight transient burning (which usually disappears rapidly) may occasionally happen. Prolonged topical application may cause sensitisation reactions. Fenticonazole is generally well tolerated by the mucous membranes; only exceptionally mild and transient erythematous reactions have been reported. After topical application or intravaginal administration, a slight burning sensation may occur, usually subsiding soon. Should more persistent irritation occur or resistant micro-organism develop, suspend the treatment and seek the doctor's advice. Due to poor absorption of Fenticonazole, no systemic effects should occur, provided the above instructions are carefully observed.

Contraindications - Contraindicated in case of hypersensitivity to Fenticonazole and other Imidazoles.

Others - Pregnancy & Lactation It is not recommended in pregnancy. Safety in breastfeeding has not been established.
