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)

 5  Yeast Infection none My first yeast infection, the walk in clinic doctor prescribed to me Monistat7 and was cured from it. For my second yeast infection (2 years after my first) I bought monistat 3 because I didn't want to be on the meds for a week. It cured me just fine. I don't see how other women are in such pain, but then again each women have different bodies. I recommend this product to any woman with a yeast infection...YOU WILL BE FINE, don't listen to the other women...just suck it up F 20 3 days

 1  Recurrent yeast infection I feel vindicated that I found this website. My gyn told me he's never heard of such a reaction as I had. My entire vulva swelled up and was on fire and it took days for it to settle. I was depressed and in sheer agony. I used to use this stuff and it was a relief. I don't know what changed. F 30 3 days

 5  Yeast Infection The side effects are worse than the actual infection. Within 2 minutes after taking my first dose I began feeling this intense itching/burning sensation. This kept me up for the majority of the night. As I said before my syptoms were nowhere near as bad before as they are now and I'm not understanding why or how that is possible. After reading many of these comments I find comfort in knowing that it is not just me or something I did, and can now conclude that I shouldn't continue the next two doses. I understand that everyone's body reacts different however the fact is that there are many of us on here that are experiencing the same problem and to the same degrees of discomfort. I recommend to those who have not used this product to maybe think of some alternative methods and/or products F 23 1 days

 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  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
