For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Currently on day 2 of this terconazole vaginal treatment... so far my YI symptoms were relieved so we’ll see how it works after I’ve finished all of it. I’m pretty sure the “cream oozing out” is it bringing all the yeast out, so don’t think the cream is just coming out of you. If you’re still in pain using this, you probably just had an allergic reaction to it."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "This medication is extremely worth it. I’m on my third day, and my yeast is cleared up. I must say it works really well compared to other medications. I was prescribed, this is the best. If you had a bad experience, it had to be an allergic reaction or something because terconazole works miracles. I highly recommend this to anybody that's having yeast problems."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I get recurrent YI and used to take one or two rounds of Diflucan until I started getting an allergic reaction to it. So, my last visit, my doctor prescribed terconazole for 3 days for me to have on hand. After getting a doozy of a YI last week, I read reviews on terconazole and was a little skeptical but had nothing else to try. I tried it and am so happy I did. I was so desperate for relief the first day that I used it during the day, and that was a mistake. Everything poured out! It’s best to use at nighttime so everything mostly stays inside. After day two, I was almost discharge-free, and the discomfort was better by day four and five. I know everyone is different, but this worked wonders for me."

Terconazole topical for Vaginal Yeast Infection "I started having an itchy mouth/throat with ulcers developing on day 5, not realizing I was having an allergic reaction. On day 7, I went to bed and woke up at 5 a.m., then almost blacked out while lying in bed, sweating, and my whole abdominal area swelled up from below my breast area all the way down. It was the weirdest feeling I've ever had and thought I was literally going to die. I grabbed 2 Benadryl immediately (thank goodness I had it) and got to the doctor immediately. This happened 4 weeks ago. And I am still not over the itchy roof of my mouth and still have a few ulcers. I am 42 years old and I have used this medicine several times over the years, so I don't know what happened, but I want to tell other women to please be careful."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I’ve been dealing with a yeast infection since January (front and back). It’s now August. I’ve tried everything with really poor results. Monistat 1? Monistat 3? Monistat 7? Worked, but either had a reaction or it’d come right back. Couldn’t finish due to a reaction on my skin. After trying clotrimazole vaginal (which did nothing but make my parts very bad) and having a really bad reaction, and Diflucan weirdly making my lip blister, I had given up all hope. He said let’s try terconazole. I’m so glad I did. It’s so gentle on my skin. It’s clearing the yeast slowly. Slower than anything mentioned above - but - it’s actually working. I’m on night 7. My doctor wants me to do another 7. I believe it’s slower for me because the infection was just so bad and lengthy. Rating an 8 because it’s not all the way gone. Yet."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I'm 8 months pregnant, and this was my first time using this. Yes, it treated my YI, but I think I had a horrible allergic reaction to it down there. I was taking terconazole and metronidazole at the same time. I've taken the metronidazole before and never had any type of irritation. It kind of made me freak out because of how bad the irritation was and that it caused my vagina to swell. I went back to see my OB, and he put it in my chart to not use anymore. I already have a sensitive vagina as it is, but this reaction to this medicine has ruined me."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Not sure why some patients had bad reviews about this cream, it has worked perfectly fine with me for years. Maybe some of y'all just had an allergic reaction to terconazole and should ask your doctor to recommend something else."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "My symptoms were an annoying itch that came and went but were, for the most part, bearable when I took things like Azo (over the counter) and Advil. The first night I took this, I woke up with a worse itch that I sat up crying for hours, trying everything to stop it. I flushed out the medicine and later felt relief. Won’t be finishing the 3-day treatment and asking my doctor for Diflucan pill, which helps. Second time I’ve had a bad reaction to creams that require insertion. Never again."
