Fluconazole
"When I get a yeast infection, I usually turn to Monistat 1.  This time I was on penicillin for illnesses and the doctor told me to give her a ring if I developed a yeast infection.  Sure enough, I did.  I took the prescription because I figured it'd knock it out better than any OTC.  First dose...no change in symptoms after 3 days.  Second dose...no change again.  I read that symptoms should start to go away after 1-2 days.  So, after a week of battling yeast on diflucan,  I bought Monistat 1.  After insertion of the egg, it was painfully obvious that the pill did nothing as I could feel the itching burn of the egg working.  Well, here it is a day after Monistat...feel soooo much better!!!  I guess prescription isn't always better."
