About Mentholatum Freddy CC1
Vaginal candidiasis, which one in five women has experienced, is a type of vaginitis caused by the Candida bacteria that normally reside on the skin and intestines, but the presence of bacteria in the vagina does not necessarily mean that it will develop. It is said that vaginal candidiasis can be triggered by factors such as the use of antibiotics or a weakened immune system due to diabetes, but it can also develop without these conditions. Recently, it has been suggested that a weakened immune system caused by excessive stress, fatigue, or poor lifestyle habits may also be a contributing factor.
Mentholatum Freddy CC1 is a treatment for recurrent vaginal candidiasis that allows you to self-treat symptoms caused by recurrent vaginal candidiasis with just one use. After insertion, the tablet disintegrates softly in the moisture of the vagina and remains there, spreading its effect from the vaginal tablet site, with the active ingredient isoconazole nitrate thoroughly sterilizing the inside of the vagina (unlike oral medications, which do not dissolve and are absorbed into the body).
*Vaginal tablets remain in the vagina to exert their effect and are gradually excreted from the body, so small white lumps or a paste-like substance may come out.

Efficacy and effectiveness
Recurrence of vaginal candidiasis. (Only for those who have previously been diagnosed and treated for vaginal candidiasis by a doctor.)
Usage/Dosage
This medicine is effective with a single use. Adults (aged 15 to 60 years old) should insert one tablet deep into the vagina at a time (preferably before bedtime).
However, if symptoms do not improve after 3 days or do not disappear after 6 days, consult a doctor.
Precautions regarding usage and dosage
This medicine is designed to be effective with just one use. After one administration, the medicine remains in the vagina and works gradually, so do not use additional vaginal tablets or suppositories for Candida.
This medicine should only be used vaginally and should not be ingested. If you accidentally ingest it, consult a doctor immediately.
Do not use during menstruation. If your period begins within six days of use, consult a doctor to confirm recovery.
If the vaginal tablet does not dissolve within 6 days after use and comes out in the same shape and size as when it was inserted, do not insert additional vaginal tablets on your own judgment, but consult a doctor or pharmacist.
