Description
Vaginal azoles are used to treat yeast (fungus) infections of the vagina.
For first-time users, make sure your doctor has checked and confirmed that you have a vaginal yeast infection before you use the vaginal azole antifungal medicines that do not require a prescription. Vaginal yeast infections can reoccur over time and, when the same symptoms occur again, self-treating with these medicines is recommended. However, you should see your doctor if the symptoms occur again within 2 months.
Some vaginal azoles are available only with your doctor's prescription. Most are available without a prescription; however, your doctor may have special instructions on the proper use of this medicine.
This product is available in the following dosage forms:
- Cream
- Kit
- Tablet
- Suppository
- Ointment
- Tampon
