`to fight infection. One oi the most serious oi these conditions is

`
`How can I get the best results when treating my infection?
`I Use 1 applicator full of vaginal cream at bedtime. even during
`your menstrual period for 7‘ nights in a row.
`I Use the cream externally only while symptoms are present. It you
`have symptoms [such as itching and irritation) on the skin outside
`the vagina (vulva). apply the cream externally 2 times a day. up to
`a total of 7 days. as needed.
`I Dry the genital area thoroughly after a shower. bath or swim.
`Change out of a wet bathing suit or damp clothes as soon as
`possible A dry area is less likely to lead to the overgrowtl'l of yeast.
`. Wear cotton underwear and loose-lilting clothes.
`I Wipe from front to back after a bowei movement or alter urination.
`. Do not douche, because douching may wash the drug out of the
`vagina.
`I Do not use tampons. because they remove some of the drug from
`the vagina. Use deodorant—tree sanitary napkins or pads as
