MONISTAT 7  (MICONAZOLE NITRATE):  This medication is used to treat vaginal yeast infections. Miconazole reduces vaginal burning, itching, and discharge that may occur with this condition. This medication is an azole antifungal. It works by stopping the growth of yeast (fungus) that causes the infection. The vaginal product comes in 2 forms (a vaginal cream or tablet). Some products also come with a skin cream to be applied to the area around the outside of the vagina. Ask your doctor before using this medication for self-treatment if this is your first vaginal infection. This medication only works for vaginal fungal infections. You may have a different type of infection (such as bacterial vaginosis) and may need a different medication. If you have fever, chills, flu-like symptoms, stomach/abdominal pain, or a bad-smelling vaginal discharge, do not use this medication. Contact your doctor right away because these may be signs of a more serious infection.   FDA Approval Date: 1991-02-15 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 3  Yeast infection extreme burning and itching I used Monistat many times in past years. I never experienced any side effects, and it always seemed to work. However, now I am in my thirties, and have two children--- who knows if that is the change or the product has changed. I used Monistat for two nights now, and I have extreme burning and itching upon applicati and until I am able to fall asleep. I do not know if the product is working, but I am going to complete the series because I do not want to have to start all over again. I agree with a past commentor... I think that the product has changed over the last few years. F 33

 3   1st night using monistat 3. 5 minutes after application, while lying down as recommended to reduce leakage, my vagina is on FIRE. intense itching & irritation more so than the yeast infection alone. almost unbearable. monistat, more like MONSTERstat! after reading these reviews, it seems the pain reduces and your body adjusts to the treatment, so hopefully this becomes more tolerable. good to know this is a normal reaction!

 2  Yeast infection Extreme internal burning, itching, bleeding, and pain I, too, had used Monistat several times with no side effects. However, this past time I used it, it was a nightmarish experience. Not only did I have two nights of severe internal burning and itching, but it also made me start to bleed after the second day of treatment. It was definitely worse than the infection itself. F

 2  discharge, itching, odor I have had yeast infections on and off for years. I usually use Monistat and it clears it up. I have never before had the internal burning I experienced this time. I also thought I was having an allergic reaction, and was wondering how I would remove this substance from my body. I got on the computer to see if this is a normal reaction. I can see from all of these posts that others have had the same experience, so I feel better. The burning has subsided a little. I just hope that it finally does the trick after going through some severe discomfort (and a little panic). I agree with the idea raised above that possibly the product has been modified, and probably is a higher strength to beat these infections that seem to be a chronic problem for so many of us. About a week ago I tried Monistat 3, ovule. It didn't burn or itch, but it also didn't get rid of the discharge and itching of the yeast infection. That's why I tried Monistat 7 cream this time. F 37

 1   I agree with all the negative comments. The pain I am experiencing after using the Monistat Ovule can only be compared to my kidney stone pain. Not kidding. It's awful.... F 42
