How long does it take for the yeast infection medicine called Fluconazole take 2 work??

We Answered:

Fluconazole comes as a tablet and a suspension (liquid) to take by mouth. It is usually taken once a day. You may need to take only one dose of fluconazole, or you may need to take fluconazole for several weeks or longer. The length of your treatment depends on your condition and on how well you respond to fluconazole. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Take fluconazole exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor. This from http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/drugi… I have had some success in keeping my body regulated by eating probiotic foods (yogurt or other foods with active culture; Kefir is very high in it...sort of like buttermilk). Good luck and make sure you follow through with your doctor because if only the strong survive, then the strongest yeast are going to be the hardest to kill if you let your antibiotic therapy not finish the job.

Can a pregnant woman take OVC yeast infection medicine?

We Answered:

your not suppost to take oral meds..like pills when your pregnant inless a doctor has gave them to you...the only over the counter stuff your suppost to take is like monistat and the cheap kind of monistat thats ok for pregnant women..because i just got over one and monistat is what i used..but it depends on how bad yours its...you can also go to the emergancy room as long as the dr. knows your pregnant he can give you safe stuff to use..but dont take pills inless they say its ok..also you can call the a pharmacy like walgreens and they can tell you if its ok to take...but like the cream and stuff that you get from the store only gets to you not your baby..if you take pills that goes through the babys system too
