Brief Answer:
May not be major effect
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Clotri-denk contains clotrimazole.
Clotrimazole belongs to category B drug when used vaginally.
Means animal studies didn't show teratogenic effect but human studies are lacking.
But when used orally, it comes under category C drug.
Means animal studies have shown some adverse effects on fetus but sufficient human studies are lacking.
In general its effect on fetus will be less in later weeks of pregnancy.
So, as you are in 7th month of pregnancy and possibly consumed low dose of the drug, there may not be any major problem.
Once consult gynecologist, get examined and go for ultrasound.
If ultrasound report is normal, no need to worry.
Hope I have answered your query. I will be available to answer followup queries. If you are satisfied with the answer, please give your review at the end of the discussion.
Take care.

Brief Answer:
Erythromycin category B drug
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Erythromycin belongs to category B drug in pregnancy.
So, you can take the remaining two tablets as advised by your doctor to complete the course.
Though pain subsided, completion of the course is needed for complete cure of infection.
Vaginal or dermal application of clotrimazole is having poor absorption.
So, if you are still having symptoms and signs of candidiasis, you can continue clotri-denk as advised by your doctor.
Take care.
