Cosvate gm is a strong steroid .It should never be used to treat fungal infection .Yeast infection requires both external and internal treatment .If you suspect you have the infection, see your doctor for an accurate diagnosis. It is better to be sure if it is candida or something else.You also need to be certain if there are other underlying issues causing the infection. Your doctor will prescribe you suitable antifungal medicines as per your condition.
