Hello to healthcare magic,
Is your infection vaginal ? If so here is a scheme:
Fungolon (fluconazole)-150 mg once, for prophylaxis- every 3rd day (1st,4th, 7th) after that 150mg once a week for 6 months as long as there is risk for infection.
Gyno-Pevaryl (econazole nitrate)- pessaries (globules)- every night you insert one intravaginal for 3 days.
Have in mind that some of these infections are sexually transmitted diseases, so your partner should also be cured.
