Hi,
The drugs which were dispensed to you were quite right for candidiasis but problem reappeared, once stopped the medicines midway. Just improvement in the symptoms does not mean that your disease has been wiped out. Restart them, maintain perineal hygiene and have safe sex. Stop your medicines only when your Dr asks you to do so.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
