A member asked:
Would benadryl (diphenhydramine) help with itchiness from a yeast infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Benadryl (diphenhydramine) helps against any type of itchiness, but can make the person quite drowsy. You could also apply Monistat yeast infection cream to the outside of the vulva, it can help stop the itching by killing the yeast. Be well.
