Avatar f tn Recently I came down with an upper respiratory infection and the doctor prescribed me a penicillin to clear it up. I told the doctor that I had a yeast infection the last time I took an antibiotic. I purchased a probiotic but didnt take it till after the 3rd day of medication and the damage was done already. I got a yeast infection and I have had one before due to antibiotics so I knew what it was.
Avatar f tn I just talked to my OB about a yeast infection today. He perscribed me the same single dose pill. He said the pharmacy thinks it shouldn't be allowed but he said it was okay.
Avatar f tn So doctor said I have a yeast infection because my discharge is smelling funny. How many of you have taken fluconazole 150mg and have been just fine? They say there is risks taking it but that it's safe. I'm 30w0d.
Avatar f tn Hi, I recently got a fluconazole capsule to treat a possible yeast infection in my penis, although I read the leaflet and it says not to take it if you have ever had an std/sti. I’m not sure whether it’s a yeast infection or an sti I’m currently suffering with so unsure on whether to take the capsule. So, is it still ok to take or will it have side effects? I’m not able to consult a doctor anytime soon.
Avatar f tn It reappear after cleaning it with cotton in 3to4hours. I am virgin. I got yeast infection several times but single tablet of fluconazole and clotrimazole cream or coconut oil has cured. Now its severe because it is not curing by several medications like fluconazole , amoxcillin miconazole cream which my doc has prescribed. Now my doc has given me pentaderm plus several medicins and blood and urine test. Tell me What should i do any advice? What is it? Is it serious?
Avatar f tn Anytime you are on a prescription medication and you see a change or something happens, it's best to report it to your doctor so they are aware of what is happening- they will also be able to tell you if it's a side effect or something totally separate. Since fluconazole is used to treat yeast infections- it's not likely the cause, but the doctor should still know that you saw the fungal infection return, despite being on the medication.
Avatar m tn Due to the unprotected sex 10 days ago, i contracted yeast infection on my penis. First there were white spots in meatus, then i cleaned them up, and doc said i gotta take a fluconazole and apply miconazole on my penis. I applied miconazole this morning and it itches like hell. Is this how it's supposed to be, like side effects, or it just doesn't work that way?
Avatar f tn Fall of last year I switched from the birth control pill to the Depo shot in hopes of eliminating side effects. Initially I had no issues with the shot, but in November I became very ill, caught the flu, and my health plummeted. I was sick until February. I lost 10 pounds, was so tired I could hardly function, and on top of everything I ended up with BV.
Avatar f tn Has anyone ever taken fluconazole? It's a tablet you take (only one) for yeast infection. My pharmacist said it's not for pregnant women but when I called the doc and told him what the pharmacist said he said it was ok to take. Has anyone else been prescribed this? I'm worried.
Avatar f tn Is there any home remedies that are safe in pregnancy to get rid of a yeast infection? I have already had it twice ans took that one day pill form of it. Just found out its listed as category c so that kind of annoyed me how my dr just acted like it was completely safe. I also really dont want to shoot medicine up there because it just sounds really difficult... any suggestions??
Avatar f tn Also, if this was a fungal/yeast infection, would 4 weeks of fluconazole usually shift it if it's not resistant?
1054108 tn?1314298660 My OB has prescribed me fluconazole 150 mg (one tablet only) for yeast infection and metronidazole 500 mg (to take for seven days) to treat bacterial vagnosis infection. She said it is safe however I am still hesitating. Please I need your advices.
Avatar f tn Fluconazole does work on yeast infections as it is an antifungal. Clindamycin is different and is an antibiotic. It fights bacteria, not yeast or fungus. Clindamycin can create a situation in which you get a yeast infection. It's not used to treat a yeast infection but fluconazole is.
Avatar f tn I'm 11wks also nd I think I have a yeast infection,, I took a fluconazole pill nd I'm using anti itch cream hopefully it goes away soon !
869568 tn?1248372915 I think I might have a yeast infection or bacterial infection. I don't know for sure though. I made an appt with my doctor this morning around 10:45am so we'll see. I wondered, though, have any of you ever experienced this during pregnancy? Is this dangerous? I had a yeast infection once before a looooooooooong time ago and was treated with cream; is that safe during pregnancy?
Avatar f tn I have been dealing with a yeast infection that will only go away for about a week at best and then it comes right back. I have been to the doctor several times. And have been given fluconazole. I had a swab done after it came back twice, and it is just the normal yeast treatable with fluconazole. Well, it came back a 3rd and 4th time. My pcp gave me a few more pills and told me to take them once a week for a month to see if that was enough to kick it. Well, it’s back, again.
Avatar f tn Cutting sugar is good for insulin/glucose issues but I’m not sure it’s going to help with yeast infection. How old are you? Do you take birth control pills?
Avatar f tn My doctor diagnosed me with a yeast infection two days ago. I took the one pill of Fluconazole she prescribed to me tuesday night. My itching has gone down very very slightly but the discharge and the redness are still in full swing. When should I start to feel better? Also: another question, my period is here so how should I deal with that plus a yeast infection? Any information is greatly appreciated!
Avatar f tn Anyone has been prescribe terconazole for yeast infection? I'm 40w + 1day I'm 1ct dilated. Doctor prescribed it to me but I'm concerned to used it. Since I'm due any day now.
Avatar m tn There are some black and reddish rashes and burning sensation for 1 month! Doctor said its just a yeast infection and gave me 30 days medication! and 8 weeks Fluconazole 400 mg per week and an anti bacterial cream to apply on the penis head twice a day!! but i still feel that burning sensation occasionally and when i apply that cream that burning sensation is little bit higher!! How long it will take to cure yeast infection or bacterial infection on inner skin of penis head?
