A large study found that when women are yeast infection, take a week of the pills can safely eliminate the infection. Taking six months of regular preventive doses of antifungal drugs can greatly reduce the number of episodes. But can not really be cured, over time many women will re-infection.
Three-quarters of the women in their life have happened at least once a vaginal yeast infection. With a certain dose of fluconazole or non-prescription creams to relieve itching, pain and waste. However, up to 8% of women were four times a year or more infections, some even once a month.
Whether the study of fluconazole were studied as a preventive drug. Published in the New England Journal of Medicine, researchers led by the Dr. Jack D. Sobel.
The study of 387 women infected with Candida albicans has been repeatedly investigated. Each subject took three pills fluconazole three days, and then in the next six months, half of them taking a week while the other half dose of placebo.
After six months, 91% of people taking fluconazole yeast has been cleared, and another group of clearance rate is 36%. In the next six months, about 43% of the women still do not take fluconazole recurrent infection, while the other group the percentage was 22%.
Yeasts are normal inhabitants of the body. However, if a certain balance is upset, they will frantically proliferation. Sometimes, pregnancy, diabetes, antibiotics, steroids or a weakened immune system will cause them crazy, but sometimes can not know why.
