Monistat Not Working While On Antibiotics

If Monistat is not working while you're on antibiotics that is because the antibiotics are killing the friendly bacteria in your vagina. This means that fungus will re-infect your vagina after the Monistat has killed it. Monistat won't prevent a yeast infection while you're on antibiotics, all it will do is create a drug resistant fungus as you keep applying the treatment.

What antibiotics do to you

Antibiotics cause yeast infections because they kill the friendly bacteria that are your body's natural defenses against yeast overgrowth, and antibiotics weaken your immune system. No anti fungal drug in the world will cure a yeast infection if you're taking antibiotics that are killing friendly bacteria.

Using Monistat

Monistat will cure your yeast infection if your body can prevent the yeast from coming back after you stop the treatment. All it can do is kill the fungus, it won't prevent an infection from returning, and it won't prevent a yeast infection while you're on antibiotics.

Try something else?

If you're getting a yeast infection while on antibiotics then your natural defenses are probably already weak. Only a small percentage of people get fungal overgrowth after a course of antibiotics because a healthy persons immune system will naturally prevent an infection.

Using a herbal remedy such as Candidol will strengthen all of you body's natural defenses so you cure your infection, and you'll strengthen your body so it prevents the infection from returning.
