What happens if you started taking monistat but then find out you don't actually have a yeast infection?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No problem: Stop the Monistat and if you have a vaginal discharge see your doctor for an exam and cultures. Insure you obtain the correct medication.

Nothing: There will be no ill effects. Just a waste of medication.
