Canesten V6 Tablet VT – Introduction
Clotrimazole, the active ingredient in Canesten V6 Tablet, is highly effective in treating yeast infections within 6 days of therapy. It is used to treat vaginal infections, such as vaginal candida (yeast) infections, which irritate the tissues surrounding the vaginal entrance and produce excruciating itching, discharge, and irritation. This type of vaginal infection can affect up to three out of every four women at some point.
How Canesten V6 Tablet VT Works: A Closer Look
Clotrimazole disrupts the fungal cell membrane within 6 days of treatment. It inhibits the demethylation of 14-alpha-lanosterol, leading to a decrease in ergosterol, an essential component of cell membranes. This disruption affects membrane fluidity, permeability, and protein activity, ultimately causing the fungus to die.
