- Patients suffering from an acute episode in RVVC, characterized by:
- Positive vaginal smear (native or KOH) for budding yeasts and/or (pseudo-) hyphae, normal or intermediate flora
- Two or more of the following signs and symptoms of VVC that are characterized as moderate or severe: itching, burning, irritation, edema, redness, or excoriation/fissure (Table 2).

- Acute cystitis diagnosed by anamnesis and urinary dip stick (positive for leukocytes and nitrites) during screening examination
- Patients with other infectious causes of vulvovaginitis assessed during gynecological examination at screening (e.g., bacterial vaginosis, Trichomonas vaginalis, Herpes simplex)
- Patients with other clinical gynecological abnormalities, such as infections of the upper urogenital tract (pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis) or known high-grade cervical dysplasia at screening
- Subjects with another vaginal or vulvar condition that would confound the interpretation of clinical response (e.g. lichen sclerosus, neuropathic pain, herpes zoster)
- Treatment with antimycotics (systemic or vaginal) within the prior 3 days of randomization or during study period other than IMP (investigational medicinal product)
- Chronic (daily) use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication during induction and maintenance period (\>4 weeks)
- Vaginal or oral antibiotic treatment during induction period
- Vaginal use of corticosteroids, chronic systemic (oral, rectal or intravenous) use of corticosteroids during treatment and follow-up period (≥ 5 mg oral prednisolone/d or equivalent dose \> 4 weeks).

- Vaginal use of antihistaminic drugs during induction period
- Patients receiving anti-estrogen treatment for breast cancer, patients receiving immunosuppressive drugs
- Patients with rare hereditary problems of galactose intolerance, the Lapp lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption."
- Active malignancy (except non-melanoma skin cancer, or carcinoma in situ of cervix) or current treatment with anticancer therapy (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, hormone therapy for cancer treatment, targeted therapy or gene therapy)
- Known major uncontrolled medical disorder(s) that renders the subject unsuitable for participation in the study, including but not limited to: comorbid condition with an estimated life expectancy of ≤ 12 months, known acquired immune deficiency syndrome, patients with chronic kidney disease on dialysis, patients with severe pulmonary (requiring home oxygen, uncontrolled COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) Gold III/ IV) or cardiovascular conditions (heart failure NYHA IV)
- Participation in another interventional clinical trial within the last 30 days
