Monistat has been studied in clinical trials. Researchers found that the one-day treatment of a vaginal miconazole ovule was safe and effective.

Safety First If you have never had a vaginal yeast infection before, see your healthcare professional before using any MONISTAT® antifungal product. Do not use MONISTAT® 1, 3, or 7 day products for external vaginal (vulvar) itching due to causes other than a yeast infection.

Our highest dose MONISTAT® 1 has the most concentrated dose, with the full treatment necessary packed into a single powerful dose for maximum convenience. Regular strength MONISTAT® 3 and low dose MONISTAT® 7 offer treatment with less concentrated doses, but are just as effective at curing yeast infections.

Other information. this is a 1-dose treatment. Most women do not get complete relief of their symptoms in just 1 day. Most women get some improvement in 1 day and complete relief by 7 days.

If you don't feel any better within the 3 days, let your healthcare provider know. Complete symptom relief should occur within 7 days of starting treatment. If you're still having symptoms beyond that, talk to your provider. This could indicate that you have an infection Monistat can't treat.

If you don't really have a yeast infection, antifungals won't help you get better. They can actually prolong the real problem, because while you'll think you're treating the issue, the real cause will continue to develop.

What is the most important information I should know about Monistat-1 (Tioconazole Vaginal)? You should not use tioconazole vaginal if you are allergic to it. Do not use this medicine if you have never had a vaginal yeast infection that has been confirmed by a doctor.

Common Monistat side effects include burning, irritation, and itching where you apply the medication. Headaches and abdominal cramps are also possible, but less common. Monistat should start working within 3 days and your symptoms should be resolved by day 7.

Which MONISTAT® product is right for you?

• Highest Dose MONISTAT® 1 may be the perfect solution for busy women with active lifestyles.
• Regular Strength MONISTAT® 3 is a great option for women who want a less concentrated treatment that provides consistent treatment and relief at moderate dosage levels.

A person should choose the Monistat product that is most suitable for their requirements. People who would prefer a one-time treatment may prefer to purchase Monistat 1. Those who would prefer the dosage of miconazole spread throughout several days may prefer to purchase Monistat 3 or Monistat 7.

The MONISTAT® 1 Ovule® stays in place and can be used day or night, making it a great solution for women who don't want to wait until bedtime to begin treating their yeast infection, or for those who exercise frequently or engage in high levels of activity.

If you have severe symptoms or OTC medication doesn't clear up your infection, you may need a prescription medication. Your healthcare provider may also recommend taking antifungal medications regularly if you get frequent yeast infections.
