Effectiveness

How Gynazole-1 Affects PatientsButoconazole is an antifungal medication that is effective against the fungus <i>Candida albicans</i> which is the main cause of vaginal yeast infections. Studies have shown that it has a fungicidal effect against <i>Candida</i> spp. in laboratory tests.
How Gynazole-1 works in the bodyButoconazole works by inhibiting the production of an important steroid in fungi. This stops them from making the right kind of lipids to form a healthy cell membrane. Without that, the cells can't survive, leading to their death or growth inhibition.

Gynazole-1 for Yeast Infection of Vagina and Vulva
Though I wasn't thrilled about the leakage after insertion, the product did work within an hour to lessen my symptoms. Since this was my first yeast infection, I don't have much to compare it to; however, from what I experienced, I would recommend this medication.

Gynazole-1 for Yeast Infection of Vagina and Vulva
I was really disappointed that the medication began to leak out only 30 minutes after my doctor inserted it. I don't know if there's enough left in me to do any good. It seems like we should be able to rely on these treatments more than we can.

Gynazole-1 for Yeast Infection of Vagina and Vulva
Note that this medication is designed to be used at night so you don't have to worry about leakage during the day. I found it effective and my symptoms were gone within a few days.

Gynazole-1 for Yeast Infection of Vagina and Vulva
I got a terrible headache about half an hour after using this, and it didn't go away until the early hours of the morning. I can't say it's been effective against yeast infection symptoms though.
