how we help with Thrush Treatment

If you’re experiencing symptoms of vaginal thrush, our pharmacists can provide treatment without a prescription — following a short, confidential consultation to ensure the medicine is suitable for you.

It’s important to remember that not all vaginal infections are thrush, and other conditions may cause similar symptoms. That’s why we’ll take the time to discuss your symptoms in private, offer clear advice, and help you choose the most appropriate treatment.

Treatment options include:

• Anti-fungal creams – applied externally to relieve itching and irritation.
• Pessaries – tablets inserted into the vagina to treat the infection directly.
• Oral capsules – a simple one-dose option that treats the infection from within.

All available treatments work by stopping the growth of Candida, the yeast that causes thrush, while allowing your body’s natural, healthy bacteria to remain balanced.

If symptoms persist, recur frequently, or you’re unsure if it’s thrush, our pharmacists may recommend you visit your GP for further assessment.

You don’t need an appointment — simply visit the pharmacy for confidential advice and effective treatment.
