For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Don't ever use this product. I only had it for 10 minutes inside me. The cream made me burn as if I was on fire, then itch so much it made me cry. I was in so much pain I couldn't stop moving off the bed with the pain I had. I went to the bathroom to wash it out. I will never, ever use this again - it burnt me so much I still have some pain, and I am using ice resting there to make it numb. This is not a good product. It just makes it worse. What is it? I still can't believe how bad the pain is. So please don't buy."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I think this medication is great. I know everyone is different, and yes, there is slight itching/burning after you first insert, but to me it means it is working. It is a stronger dose because it’s a 1-day treatment. It’s quick and easy and works super fast. I’ve used it a few times now and definitely would use again. It’s not even really messy, although yes, use a liner for the day after."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "It works. Everyone saying that it's crazy painful or itchy clearly has a more severe infection than I had. Mine was mild, and using this cleared it up within a day, with only a little extra itching after insertion, which only lasted a few hours. If you have a really bad YI, just go to a doctor. If it's mild, this will help."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I’m surprised so many people had such negative reviews. Yes, it burned and itched a bit worse when I put it in. But to me, that just means it’s working like peroxide on a cut. This morning I woke up, and it feels 99% better. I think it takes another day or so to clear completely, but this is way better than the old days with the 7 days of slime!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "So I put it in about 30 minutes ago. One minute after I put it in, INTENSE itching! I’m not even kidding, it’s so bad that I want to go to the bath and try to get it all out. Hope this is worth all the itching and burning."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I woke up yesterday with pain near the opening of my vagina and my vulva. I had gone to a water park the other day and spent much of the day in damp, tight clothes. I’m prone to UTIs and occasional yeast infections, so I wasn’t surprised. I had a yeast infection once before, about six months ago, that I treated at home. I used Monistat 7 days because reviews said the 1 day burned really bad. The Monistat did clear it up, but it took about 3 days to feel relief, and even the 7 day treatment burned, BAD, and the itching was unbearable. Today, I picked up the CVS brand, and as I’m traveling and didn’t want to go through the same misery I went through with the last yeast infection, I opted for the 1 day treatment. I’m a cheapo, so if I find a comparable product for less, with the same active ingredients, I’m going to buy that one. So I bought the CVS brand, came home and inserted the product and no itching, no burning."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "This stuff is horrible. I was looking for Monistat, but unfortunately, the store had run out. I got this instead, inserted the medication into my vagina, and laid down. I woke up in the middle of the night with horrible itching and burning. I ignored it the best I could and went back to bed after it eased a little. I just woke up, and the opening and surrounding area to my vagina is swollen sooooooo bad. I sat up and could literally just feel how swollen it was. I had el hubby check everything out down there. He said it is swollen really bad. The worst part, and I have never had an STD, still don’t as I have only been with the same partner for three years. My vagina literally smells like... chemical? Chemical burn maybe! I’m not sure. It smells like someone dumped a bottle of chemicals into my vagina. It most definitely isn’t any kind of 'natural smell.' This smell literally just smells like straight-up chemicals! Do not use this product!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I have a yeast infection and decided to get Tioconazole 1 Day instead of the other 3 or 7-day options. And man, I'm regretting it. Just a few minutes after using it, I had unbearable burning and itching. It hurt so bad. I tried my best to shower it out, and it helped a bit, but not a lot. I wish I had read the reviews first. I'm not ever going to purchase it again."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I used this cream, and let me tell you, WORST DECISION I’VE MADE! I inserted the applicator, and no less than 30 minutes in, it felt like the medication only fueled the yeast infection. My lady parts were swollen and itching worse than it was before I even used the product. Monistat is waaaaaay better, in my opinion. This product just didn’t do it for me at all. It may affect someone else totally opposite of my experience, but I would never use it again."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I was on day 5 of the itching, and although I was feeling a little better, I decided to use this to just knock it out, and WOW did I make a HUGE MISTAKE. I woke up in the middle of the night burning and itching so badly I was considering going to the ER! I was in tears, it was so bad! The YI ended up lasting 4 more days, and I now know to never, ever buy OTC medication for this particular problem ever again."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I have had several YIs before, have used the 7 and 3-day kits (active ingredient Miconazole) and have taken the Diflucan prescribed by a doctor. All four treatments gave some discomfort and itching. The 7 and 3-day kits and prescription took too long, and I would itch myself and cause even more discomfort and swelling to myself. I picked up the one-day Tioconazole (6.5%) for my most recent YI. The first few hours of application, the itching did worsen, however, I did not experience any burning. I found that reading a book and doing Sudoku kept my mind off the itching. Currently on the second day, and I only have a slight itch, 75% better than before I took the treatment and barely noticeable compared to the first few hours of treatment. The product does work, and while there is some discomfort, it beats waiting 3-7 days for relief."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Should've read the comments first. They had it at the local grocery store. Should've gone out of my way and gone to the pharmacy. So much itching after I put the stuff in. Then when I woke up, the outside of my vagina was swollen and very tender. Don't buy this. Monistat works way better."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Anytime I have to take strong antibiotics, I generally get a YI. I usually just do the 3-day treatment and opted to try 1 day just to see. *Sigh* Shortly after insertion, there was intense itching as I tried to go to sleep. The next day, I pushed out the remainder of the application, or so I thought. I spent the next day wiping and burning. No bueno. I'll just stick to 3 days."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I get yeast infections very often and can’t spend 17 dollars every time, so I got the knockoff tioconazole. I inserted it and didn't experience any burning or itching, but now I woke up around 5:30, and I can feel my vag is swollen. I know the product works, though, and I’d rather deal with this for a day than have a week of infection."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I inserted this last night, and I woke up with a warm, fuzzy feeling and a little bit of an itch. I wanted to read reviews to see if it was effective, and I didn't experience the burning sensation. Although the itching is still mildly present. I had originally noticed symptoms about 3 days ago and only inserted it last night. I used the off-brand CVS version 'Tioconazole Ointment 6.5%', 1 dose."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I picked this up after a few days of mild itching, no smelly discharge or anything too crazy. I inserted it, and within 5 minutes, it began to burn and itch. It is currently 4 am, and I have been awake for the last 3 hours tossing and turning. I went to the bathroom and looked at what was going on down there, and my outer labia is puffy and red. I had to pee, hoping it would make it better, but no luck. The stuff came out along with some discharge. I do not recommend, my symptoms are worse than before!!"

"I just got the generic brand of the Monistat 1, it was like $20. This is a very strong medication, although it said one day, the instruction pamphlet said that complete relief will come in 7 days for most women. I applied the topical cream 3 times a day. The cream did burn a little after immediate application but settled down. Day 1 incredibly itchy, ice pack on lady bits, intense burn about 20 minutes after putting the oval capsule in, there was quite a bit of discharge from it. Day 2 a little bit better, not much. Day 3 itching is way less, small discharge. Day 4 and 5 not much change. Day 6 almost nothing, just super dry. Day 7 completely done, no itch, no burn, still a little dry down there but overall a success. Hang in there!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Went to Walmart looking for Monistat 1, but they were out, so I bought Tioconazole 1. I showered, did my regular cleaning routine, laid down, inserted it, and rubbed what was left on the outside. I immediately felt relief, the itching stopped right away, and the soreness went away. I feel great and haven’t experienced any swelling. Will most definitely recommend and purchase again if needed."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Used on day 2 of noticing symptoms. Minor ones at that. Only felt intensified burning and itching for maybe an hour after insertion, but definitely tolerable. Had sweet, sweet relief after that passed. Didn’t really feel like I was leaking that much either. Definitely recommend."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I have been having some itching for a couple of days, noticed the normal yeast discharge. Went to get the Monistat 1 as I normally do. I like the one and done. I’m a busy girl. They didn’t have it. I wanted to take something ASAP. Got this instead, it was cheaper. Got home and took it. Today I just worked from bed, as I used it in the morning. It’s now 5 hours in, and I have none of these crazy burning, extra itchiness, or swelling symptoms. I would recommend it. I’m already feeling better and not itchy."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I did not experience any burning or itching while using this. If you have any burning or itching, you might have BV or an untreated STI, or even a very severe case of yeast infection. Make sure you have a yeast infection before using this product, or you will have those adverse reactions."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "This is the second time I've used this drug for a vaginal yeast infection. The first time I had intense burning and itching following insertion, but it only lasted about 20 minutes. This time, though... it's been an hour and a half... I'm writhing in pain. The burning and itching are unbearable. I typically handle pain well, but this is just outrageous. The next yeast infection will be treated with the antifungal pill."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "My vagina is worse now than the night before! I have used Monistat plenty of times, I decided to use this, and I wish I never did. I woke up at 6 am after putting in the cream the night before, and it's so swollen, red, and itchy down there I can't even close my legs, it hurts so bad! Never again!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Inserted Tioconazole 1 Day three days ago. My vagina is so swollen I’m afraid I’m going to have to go to the hospital or something. It’s unlike anything I’ve experienced before. I was hoping it was just irritated and that the medicine would do its job, but I am more itchy than ever. Do not purchase this product."
