Clindamycin + Clotrimazole (Candid-CL) Vaginal Suppository 100mg + 200mg

What Is Clindamycin + Clotrimazole (Candid-CL) Vaginal Suppository 100mg + 200mg

Clindamycin + Clotrimazole (Candid-CL) Vaginal Suppository 100mg + 200mg is a dual-action suppository used to treat stubborn vaginal infections that involve both bacteria and yeast. It's meant for women who’ve tried single therapies before but still feel discomfort—whether it’s that persistent itch, a strange discharge, or irritation that just doesn’t go away. This vaginal suppository gives two trusted medications in one insert, helping you feel relief where it really matters.

It delivers clindamycin, which fights the bacterial side, and clotrimazole, which takes care of the fungal part. Instead of wondering which infection is causing your symptoms, Candid-CL covers both. It’s applied internally, letting the medicine work overnight. If you’ve used clindamycin and clotrimazole cream and found it messy or hard to apply, this form stays in place and works more effectively.

You can order your supply from Sanford Pharmacy, where they keep only properly stored, sealed medications. They won’t switch out your prescription or send you old stock. Just fast, quiet, trustworthy delivery.

Drug Class

Clindamycin belongs to a group called lincosamide antibiotics. This type of antibiotic doesn’t attack all bacteria—it focuses on the kind that don’t need oxygen to thrive. That’s especially helpful in the vaginal environment, where anaerobic bacteria often cause recurring problems.

Clotrimazole is part of the imidazole antifungal family. It’s a reliable treatment for many types of yeast, especially Candida albicans, the one behind most vaginal yeast infections. You might’ve used clotrimazole over the counter before, like creams or topical antifungals—but the vaginal suppository form delivers it deeper and more evenly.

Together, this clindamycin clotrimazole combo works better than either ingredient alone. And because it’s targeted, it affects less of the rest of your body.

How Does Clindamycin + Clotrimazole Work

Clindamycin works by stopping the bacteria from making the proteins they need to survive. It doesn’t just kill everything; it targets the bacteria that are most likely behind your infection. These include the ones that cause the smell and discharge of bacterial vaginosis.

Clotrimazole, on the other hand, disrupts the wall of the yeast cell. That leads to holes in the fungus, making it leak and die. It doesn’t harm your own cells, and it's well-tolerated in the vaginal area—even for women who’ve had reactions to other antifungals.

This candid cl vaginal pessary form gives you both actions in one insert. So while clotrimazole vs clindamycin might be a question in simpler cases, when your infection involves both bacteria and fungus, there’s no need to choose.

Instead of using clindamycin phosphate topical solution or clotrimazole cream externally, the suppository goes where the issue is and helps where it counts.

Onset of Action

You might start feeling a little better within 24 hours, especially the burning or irritation. The odor and discharge might take another day or two to settle down. For most women, full symptom relief happens around day three to five of treatment. But don’t stop early—finish the full course even if you feel good before it’s over.

If you've used separate medications in the past, you'll likely find this combined therapy works faster and more completely. Many women say in candid cl vaginal pessary reviews that they didn’t need repeat treatments afterward, which is a big relief when you've been dealing with repeated discomfort.

How to Use Clindamycin + Clotrimazole Vaginal Suppository

Wash your hands before opening the blister pack. Gently insert one suppository vaginal tablet at bedtime. It dissolves on its own and releases the medication throughout the night.

You may want to wear a light panty liner to catch any slight leakage. Don’t douche, use tampons, or engage in sexual activity while using the treatment. All of these could reduce how well the medicine works.

It’s typically prescribed once a night for three or six nights, depending on your doctor’s advice. Avoid using clindamycin topical or other external products at the same time unless your provider recommends it.

How This Product Differs From Others

This isn’t your average yeast cream. And it’s not just an antibiotic. Many women go months trying different creams—sometimes clindamycin cream, sometimes clotrimazole over the counter—never realizing both infections might be happening at once.

That’s where this clindamycin and clotrimazole pessary stands apart. It gives you both medicines in one simple insert, helping your body heal more completely.

Instead of juggling multiple prescriptions or repeating failed treatments, this combo gets to the root of the problem. You sleep while it works—no daytime mess, no interruptions.

Dosage Information

If you forget to insert your dose at night, just do it the next day at the scheduled time. Don’t try to double up. Too much medicine can irritate the vaginal lining or cause spotting.

If you accidentally use two in one day, you might feel increased discharge, light cramping, or soreness. Usually, this passes on its own, but call your doctor if anything feels off or lasts longer than a few hours.

Storage Information

⪢  Store the suppositories in a cool, dry place. Don’t freeze them.

⪢  Keep them out of the bathroom if it's damp.

⪢  Heat and moisture can damage the ingredients and reduce how well they work.

⪢  Sanford Pharmacy sends all products in properly sealed boxes, with clear expiration dates and no tampered packaging.

Warnings and Precautions

🚨 Let your doctor know if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding. Some providers prescribe clindamycin and clotrimazole during pregnancy, but only if necessary. Don’t assume it’s safe without checking.

🚨 If you develop severe abdominal pain, heavy bleeding, or a fever while using the suppository, stop and seek medical advice.

🚨 Don’t use this product with latex condoms or diaphragms. The oils in the suppository might weaken latex and increase the risk of breakage.
