MONISTAT 3  (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: 1984-08-15 (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 1  Yeast infection After a few minutes a burning worse than setting my literal vagina on fire began. I couldn't do anything. Couldn't sleep, couldn't watch tv, all I could do was beg the god I don't believe in to make the burning stop. I cried after only fifteen minutes of this and started scooping the cream out of my insides which was super gross and even though I think I got it all the burning continues. I am so uncomfortable. If this doesn't stop soon I'm going to have to take three Benadryl and go to sleep the hard way. Don't do it. You'd rather have the yeast infection trust me. F 20 1 days

 1  1 dose Burning/Itching Severe... The extreme swelling of one of my inner lips!!!! (scary) and redness all over... Also in the past the monistat 3 burned me and turned my whole vagina white (and im black) i had mild irritation due to a yeast infection caused by takin anitbiotics. im not finished with the anti-biotic so i didnt want to take the diflucan yet.. so i got the 1 dose over the counter (Tioconazole is the generic name). This has my vagina itching and burning severly. I woke up with redness all over, white at the bottom, and one of my inner lips ARE SWOLLEN LIKE CRAZY.. im just scared. Ive decided to stay home from work and continue to wash like every couple of hours to keep this medicine off my skin while it seeps out. My Er copay is 100 bucks and my doctor is 30... so im gonna wait it out to see if it goes down. This is the WORST experience ever. I just cant believe it. I do feel better that I am not the only one that this happend to. This product should be banned. F 26 1 days

 1  Yeast infection I took the Monistat-1 combination pack. I assumed this unbelievable pain was simply the result of a yeast infection, though I'd never experienced pain anything like this before with a yeast infection. It has been two days since I took the medicine, and the burning pain is so severe, particular when I attempt to urinate, that I feel like screaming. NEVER, NEVER again. F 44 1 days

 1  Uti doctor said take this also Burning , discomfort, irritated skin. I didn't have a yeast infection but my doctor said that the antibiotics I'm on might cause me to get one. So she suggested I use Monistat during for the time I'm on antibiotics. I was great until 15 min after using Monistat 3. I could hardly sleep it was so irritating F 33 1 days

 1  Mild Yeast Infection Add me to the list. First time in years I'd had a yeast infection, I'd caught it early and tried the M3. Within a minute of inserting the cream, the itching was unbearable. It was truly shocking waves of itching -- much, much worse than what I'd been dealing with from the infection. The only thing that brought the itching down to a tolerable level was a warm bath and getting as much of the cream out as I could. I'm astonished this product is still on the market with so many complaints. I will be calling my PCP this morning, who prescribed me the antibiotics a few weeks ago that gave me the yeast infection, but from now on, I'll stick with yogurt, diflucan or something from the health store.

 1  Yeast Infection Unbearable burning, pain & swelling. Have been taking Sporanox for a few days to eradicate yeast infection. In the meantime, I decided to purchase the Monistat cream to help with the burning & itching. What a mistake!!!! I used Monistat years ago many times without a problem so am wondering what the deal is now. Don't use this product. F 53 1 days

 1  yeast infection Burning/ITCHING!!!! It is the worst feeling, after I put it in about 20 mins later, I felt like I had fire ants biting me! I went and took a shower quickly!!! Try Tercinzaloe 3(my physician prescribed it, i dint have any of those symptoms that monistat gave me, this stuff is great!!! F 28 1 days

 1   Tonight I went to the store and bought Monistat 3 for my yeast infection. I was really looking forward to bedtime, thinking that I would get some relief and not itch. A couple minutes after I inserted the medicine, I started itching so badly, I couldn't contain myself. I tried wiping it off, peeing, dancing around, it just ITCHES SOOOOO BAD!!! I can't take it. I will never ever ever take this product again! This was the worst decision I've ever made. I would rather let the infection eat me alive than take Monistat again! F 24 1 days
