I have vaginitis. I am 10 weeks pregnant. Can I use Canesten cream (1-day treatment)?

Yes, during pregnancy, it is recommended to use the 7-day treatment of clotrimaderm 1% (Canesten™) for vaginal infections. This treatment is preferred because only a small amount of the medication is absorbed through the vaginal route, so lower concentrations are given. If the infection is not resolved after the 1-week treatment, it is important to consult a doctor. If you have recurrent vaginitis, a different treatment approach may be necessary.
