If the solution is valid, it contains the active substance clotrimazole, an active substance from the group of broad-spectrum antifungals (medium for the treatment of fungal infections).
Clotrimazole inhibits the growth and reproduction of fungal cells such as Spross fungi (yeast) as well as a number of other fungi and some bacteria.
Clotrimazole is used for fungal infections of the skin, for inflammation of the vagina and for discharge by fungi (mostly Candida), as well as super infections with bacteria sensitive to clotrimazole.
Fungal skin infections can manifest themselves as mycoses of the feet, mycoses of the skin and skin folds, pityriasis versicolor, erythrasma, superficial candidiasis.
Candida species are yeasts that can be detected on the skin and in many women in the vagina. Only when the multiplication is excessive does a fungal disease (mycosis) develop, which is usually noticeable through redness, burning, itching, discharge and painful inflammation. Safe detection is only possible by the doctor.
Clotrimazole is prescription-only and may only be used on medical instructions.
Preparations are exempt from the prescription requirement:
- for external use or
- for vaginal use in pack sizes with a total amount of up to 600 mg clotrimazole, divided into up to 3 single doses, and for a period of application up to 3 days.
- for fungal infections of the skin.
- with Entz?divorce ;
- when drained by mushrooms (mostly Candida) ;
- Super infections with bacteria sensitive to clotrimazole.
Always use the solution exactly as your doctor has told you. Please ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.
- solution / drip solution
The solution should be applied thinly to the diseased skin and the adjacent healthy skin areas and rubbed in.
The duration of treatment depends, among other things, on the extent and location of the disease. In order to achieve complete healing, the treatment should not be stopped after the symptoms have subsided, but should be continued consistently for at least 4 weeks. Pityriasis versicolor generally heals in 1 to 3 weeks and erythrasma in 2 to 4 weeks.
In the case of athlete's foot - to prevent relapses - despite rapid subjective improvement approx. 2 weeks beyond the disappearance of all signs of illness.
- Spray / pump spray
Before the first application, please press the spray head 1 to 2 times; after that the preparation is ready to use. The spray spacing should be 10 to 30 cm.
Regular and sufficiently long use of the solution is important for the success of the treatment. The duration of treatment is different; among other things, it depends on the extent and location of the disease. In order to achieve complete healing, treatment with the solution should not be stopped after the acute inflammatory symptoms or subjective complaints have subsided, but should be continued for at least 4 weeks. Pityriasis versicolor generally heals in 1 to 3 weeks and erythrasma in 2 to 4 weeks. In the case of athlete's foot - to prevent relapses - and despite rapid subjective improvement approx. 2 weeks beyond the disappearance of all signs of illness. After each washing, the feet should be thoroughly dried (inter spaces).
- Cream / ointment for application
The cream / ointment is applied thinly to the diseased skin areas with the fingers and then rubbed into the skin.

In order to achieve complete healing, treatment with the cream should not be stopped after the acute inflammatory symptoms or subjective complaints have subsided, but should be continued for at least 4 weeks.
- powder
The affected areas of the skin are powdered.
- Vaginal cream
The vaginal cream is inserted as deep as possible into the vagina using the applicator. This is best done on a back position with slightly raised legs. The treatment should not be carried out during menstruation or. be completed before they start. If treatment during pregnancy is required at the doctor's instructions, this should be carried out with vaginal tablets, as these can also be used without an applicator.
Use of the vaginal cream with the disposable applicator :
1. The piston of the disposable applicator is pulled out until it stops.
2nd. Open the tube, put the single-use applicator on the tube, leave firmly pressed and fill by carefully pressing the tube.
3rd. Remove the disposable applicator from the tube, insert it as deep as possible into the vagina (preferably on the back) and empty it by pressing the piston.
A new disposable applicator must be used for each application, which is thrown away after use.
In general, 3-day treatment is sufficient for vaginal inflammation, particularly caused by fungi. If necessary, a second treatment can be carried out over 3 days.
Signs of vaginal inflammation caused by fungi (such as itching, discharge, burning) generally decrease significantly within the first 4 days after the start of treatment. If symptoms do not improve significantly after 4 days, please contact your doctor.
- vaginal suppositories / vaginal tablets
The vaginal suppository / vaginal tablets are inserted as deep as possible into the vagina in the evening with a previously cleaned finger. This is best done on a back with slightly tightened legs. Treatment should not be carried out during menstruation or. be completed before starting. To remove the vaginal cone from the blister, please pull the two foils apart at the tip of the suppository.
A slip with slip insert should be worn during use to avoid cup / tablet residues in textiles.
The doctor decides on the duration of the application depending on the extent and location of the disease. A sufficiently long application is important for success. In general, treatment with 100 mg clotrimazole lasts 6 days, with 200 mg clotrimazole 3 days. Please keep this time even if you already feel better. If necessary, a second treatment can be carried out.

If you have any side effects not listed in this leaflet, please tell your doctor or pharmacist.
No overdoses or poisoning are expected when used as directed.
Is the solution e.g. of children, taken in large quantities, no severe signs of poisoning are to be expected. However, symptoms such as abdominal pain and nausea can occur. As a precaution, the doctor should be notified.
If you forget to use it in the evening, you can catch up on the application the following morning. Next time, do not use a larger amount of Gilt solution, but continue treatment as recommended.
In order to fully heal the fungal infection and prevent relapse, you should not stop or interrupt the treatment prematurely without consulting your doctor. If you do, there is a risk that the symptoms will return because your fungal disease is unlikely to have healed properly. You should not stop treatment after the symptoms have subsided, but continue consistently (as recommended under "Dosage instructions").
Change towels, laundry and stockings daily that come into contact with the sick skin. This simple measure alone supports healing and prevents transmission to other parts of the body and people.
if you are hypersensitive (allergic) to the active substance clotrimazole or any of the other ingredients in Gilt Solution.
- when used as a skin remedy
You should only use deodorants or other cosmetics on the sick skin areas after consulting your doctor, as a reduction in the effectiveness of clotrimazole cannot be ruled out.
The drip solutions containing clotrimazole must not get into the eyes, since local irritation is possible due to the content of propylene glycol.
- with vaginal use
Take special care with the application of the valid solution:
- when the disease first occurs ;
- if you have had more than 4 such fungal infections in the past 12 months.
- if you are younger than 18 years (for vaginal cream the potency 0.1 g clotrimazole / 1 g).
Note:
With simultaneous infection of the labia and adjacent areas or. in the case of medically diagnosed inflammation of the glans and foreskin of the partner by fungi, the partners should receive additional local treatment with the dosage forms of clotrimazole intended for this purpose.
When commercial creams and condoms made of latex are used at the same time, there may be a reduction in tear resistance and thus an impairment of the safety of condoms.
Cetylstearyl alcohol (an ingredient of commercially available vaginal creams) can cause local irritation (e.g. contact dermatitis). If you are hypersensitive to cetylstearyl alcohol, it is advisable to use a cetylstearyl alcohol-free dosage form (e.g. vaginal tablets) instead of the vaginal cream.

No special precautions are to be taken.
2.2.a.2.vaginal use

2.2.c.1.Dog
If you use skin medication as described in the "Dosage Instructions" or recommended by your doctor or pharmacist, the active ingredient clotrimazole is only absorbed into the body in very small amounts; a systemic effect (effect on other organs) is therefore not to be expected. Clotrimazole should still not be used in early pregnancy for caution.
2.2.c.2.vaginal use
Clotrimazole should not be used in early pregnancy (1 to 3. Month) because there is reasonable suspicion that vaginal use of clotrimazole in the first third of pregnancy can increase the rate of miscarriage.
From the 4th. Month of pregnancy, use according to medical instructions is possible.
During pregnancy, treatment should either be done with the vaginal cream by the doctor or with vaginal tablets without an applicator.
