I'm not quite clear on whether you mean 200 mg every three days or  
800 mg every three days?
Dosing every three days is a newer method of induction treatment for  
recurrent genital candidiasis,

However the doses for this treatment are typically each 150 or 200  
mg, not 800 mg. 800 mg/day is often used as a dosage in  
immunosuppressed individuals.
