Fast Relief from External Thrush Symptoms
Canesten® External Cream contains clotrimazole 2%, an antifungal ingredient used to treat the external symptoms of vaginal thrush. It helps relieve itching, soreness, redness, and irritation around the vaginal area caused by Candida overgrowth.
This cream is often used alongside an internal thrush treatment (such as a pessary or capsule), but can also be used on its own for external symptom relief.
What Is Canesten External Cream Used For?
Canesten External Cream is used to treat and relieve the external symptoms of vaginal thrush, including:
- Redness or soreness around the vaginal opening
- Itching or burning sensations
- Discomfort during urination or sex
It works by stopping the growth of Candida, the yeast responsible for thrush.
- Apply a thin layer of cream to the affected area 2–3 times daily
- Use for up to 7 days, or as directed

- Avoid using tampons, other vaginal products, or soaps on the area during treatment
Can be used alongside oral or internal antifungal treatments.
