They are quickly absorbed into the blood and begin to act immediately - relief will come in 12 hours, and sometimes even earlier. There are many similar drugs, but the basis of any of them is the active substance fluconazole. It is this that makes the treatment of thrush the most effective. For example, you can try a very effective drug called Mikosysta. It is inexpensive, but the effect is simply amazing. Firstly, thrush recedes very quickly. Secondly, it provides complete protection of the vagina from re-infection with fungi that can get on the mucous membranes from other places - for example, from the intestines. In most cases, you will need only a single dose of Mikosysta - one ampoule of 150 mg. And only in rare cases may it be necessary to re-take the drug - usually after three days. If the treatment of thrush in this situation is not repeated, the disease will return again. The following drugs have approximately the same effect:
