Hi Stella
Thank you for leaving your review, we love to hear from all of our customers as this helps us know which items are effective in treating symptoms and which we should continue to stock.
Canestan is a popular product that we provide, being rated as 4.3 out of 5 by our patients and is available in different strengths. The pessaries that come in 100mg and 200mg need to be inserted into the vagina for at least 3 consecutive days whereas the 500mg dose that you have purchased normally only requires a single dose.
Some people will notice relief from the symptoms of vaginal thrush after a single application as the pessary can work directly at the site of infection. After 3-7 days you should notice that your symptoms have cleared.
As this is not the case, our support team have contacted you directly to help resolve this with you and ensure you have the most suitable treatment for your symptoms.
Thank you for getting in touch
Firstly I wanted to thank you for choosing our pharmacy to dispense your medication and wanted to apologise for your experience not living up to your expectations.
After checking your account I was pleased to see that your item was dispatched on the same day that your order was placed, which is something that our clinical and dispensary teams pride themselves on doing to ensure all of our customer's orders are received as soon as possible.
Your parcel was collected by Royal Mail and we would have anticipated its successful delivery 2-3 working days later. Whilst this is not a guaranteed service, on behalf of Royal Mail I wanted to apologise that this did not happen and do hope that this did not cause any inconvenience.
We only work with established and reliable postal services, however, I can understand that on this occasion this has fallen short of our high standards.
I am however pleased to see that our support team promptly addressed the situation with you; offering several resolutions to help and this has been resolved to your satisfaction swiftly and professionally.
