A member asked:
Is monastat as effective for yeast infections as diflucan (fluconazole)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diflucan (fluconazole) superior: In my experience one dose of oral Diflucan (fluconazole) in younger women is more effective than treatment with monostat. In older women(menopausal) the one dose may not clear the yeast infection.
