For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I used the generic Monistat 1 (tioconazole), and for the first few hours it was great- no burning and I fell asleep quickly. A few hours later I woke up absolutely dying. It burned so much, and my vulvar lips were so swollen (HUGE!), so red and visibly irritated. I had to use an ice pack to help decrease some of the pain. I left the ointment in because I figured i already suffered this much, I might as well let it do its job. By the time I woke up though, the swelling had gone down considerably, no more burning, and my yeast infection felt 90%better (I'm still using the topical miconazole from a previous package to help with the mild residual itch). So even though it's a few hours of literal torture and you will lose sleep, it did work well"

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 had a different experience to others, I used Tioconazole 1 and after 15 minutes it started to burn not to bad but it’s definitely uncomfortable after like and hour the burning starts to go away and you don’t feel your symptoms as much as before. I think it’s a good product for the most part !"

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 "I used the cvs brand tioconazole ointment 6.5% for a mild yeast infection. After insertion I read all the horrible reviews and was scared to death at what I was about to go through. However, I experienced no itching and no burning. Of course I had some leakage the next day so I would suggest wearing a panty liner, but other than that this treatment worked great! Definitely will use again if needed."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I usually take regular Monistat (miconazole) 1 day for yeast infections and experience the same symptoms described here (itching, burning, extreme pain) for about 2-3 hours a few hours after inserting the product, and have learned to deal with it as I find this to be the most convenient solution overall for a yeast infection. All my pharmacy had this time was this alternative. I had a moderate yeast infection that I'd been dealing with for about two days when inserting this product. Immediately, I noticed some itching and burning, but it was nowhere near as bad as with the regular Monistat. If you are willing to deal with some discomfort and have had issues with regular Monistat before, I'd recommend this."

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 and get it all out. Hope this is worth all the itching and burning."

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

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 fuelled the yeast infection. My lady parts was 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 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 day 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 "I used Ticonazole 1 day treatment because it is reported to have a better effect against the yeast infection than miconazole. I experienced absolutely no discomfort or problems, and found my yeast infection to be quite cleared up by the medication. I would recommend the medication to others based on my favorable experience."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I of course took this medicine without reading the reviews, and sure enough I got the horrible side effects a lot of women are saying on here. Extreme vaginal swelling, and discomfort. I immediately squeezed as much of this out of my vagina as I could, I took some ibuprofen, and iced my lady bits. Why is this medication even being sold if so many people are having a nightmare of an experience? Never again! I’m hoping to not have to go to quick care tomorrow with this embarrassing symptom. I’m hoping it will feel better in the morning, as this woke me up at 1AM."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Did experience slight burning for about an hour but after that I was able to get a good night's rest, this is the day after I've taken it and other than the discharge everything is fine. Make sure to wear a pad or panty liner. Very happy with this product, I bought the CVS brand for 1 day."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I have had several YI’s before, have used the 7 and 3 day kits (active ingredient Miconazole) and have taken the Diflocan prescribed by a doctor. All 4 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 reading a book and doing sudoku kept my mind off the itching. Currently on the 2nd 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 "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 sooooo 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 "Should of read the comments first. They had it at the local grocery store. Should of went 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 "I used this tioconazole 1 day because it was a Sunday and absolutely nothing was open and as soon as I put it in I felt a little relief but after that I was getting mild stomach pain that might have been gas. I felt no burning swelling or excess itching. It stopped the itching the next day until it hit about 9 o’clock pm and a good itch came back but then it started to get bearable by 12am. I’m hoping it doesn’t take 7 days to heal. I would use again if I couldn’t go to the doctor for diflucan."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I started noticing/questioning symptoms on Sunday, bought medication on Tuesday. Applied before bed, after laying down, with no intention of getting back up. I did not experience any of the misery that the other are posting, but have experienced it with anti-fungal sprays on feet my feet. I can't help but wonder if there is correlation with progression of Infection, perhaps if there is any broken skin or not?? I would absolutely use this medication again without hesitation, even if it were to cause me some discomfort. It is worth it to get my lady bits back in check."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "NEVER AGAIN. Do not use this stuff. It’s terrible. I had a horrible reaction to it. I woke up with a very sore and swollen vagina. I couldn’t even walk or sit down without it hurting. Plus it didn’t even treat my yeast infection. In fact, my infection is worse. Spend the extra money and get Monistat."

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 knock off 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 then have a week if 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 wish I had come to this comment session before using it. Applied the cream in my playground around 10 pm and fell asleep, so far so good. Woke up at 4 a.m. to pee and my whole vulva was red, swollen and sensitive to touch, I had never felt anything like it, even wiping her after peeing was painful. The small lips were so swollen that they were hard, stiff (not to mention the size). Now it's 10 am and it still feels horrible, I can barely walk, have to sit with legs spread, peeing is a sacrifice. Seriously, don't buy this."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "So I started getting vaginal burning and I knew I had a YI. I went to the store and bought tioconazole came home and inserted it. It’s been about 30mins and my vagina is burning worse then before medication. The burning is uncomfortable but not intolerable. Hopefully when I wake up I feel a lot better."
