In general, the situation I have is this. I met with the guy for a while, and it's already near the moment when the relationship is so close that it's time to take the next step, you know what I'm talking about. But as luck would have it, she got a cold. The cold passed, but the thrush came. I'm frustrated, I do not know how to explain the guy. And you need to be treated quickly and 100%. My doctor prescribed a drug that helped me immediately and without side effects. It is called zalain. This is a candle, administered vaginally at night. Once per course!

About a preparation zalain I can tell or say only good. He helped me right away, there was no sidekick. And it was super-convenient, that he bought the medicine in the form of one candle, and all - no problems. Of course, I have nothing to compare with.Thrush is my first. But, I think, after treatment zalainom, I do not need to compare. For 3 months no thrush.

Chloe and the rest, I have strict conditions and requirements for advertising in the Directory, so zero tolerance for advertising reviews disguised as usual comments. Many pharmacies know this and do not get more hooliganized. For the first time I bear a warning. With the continuation of such an advertising policy, the ban will be followed by all those who noted such customized feedback from the visitors, and the moderation of reviews to the drug will be significantly tightened. Let's live in peace.
