can i use monistat 7 (yeast infection cream) on my four year old daughter?

my 4 year old girl is on an antibiotic 10 day course of a pill named Augmentin, and one the possible side affects is yeast infections...well....she's been whining and scratching herself all day so i think it's obvious she has one. can i use over the counter creams for her? i dabbed a little Vagisal on her just to get some of the itch to go down. can i use the antifungal creams too?

    How do you know that it is a yeast infection?

    https://tr.im/NaturalCureYeastInfection

    Presumably you already have tried self treatment or you would not be asking the Q I suggest that you see your doctor for confirmation and if necessary swabs.also it maybe necessary to exclude diabetes.

    it would be useful to know your age/on pill/children etc and sexual history More likely to get fungus if pregnant/on pill/diabetic Is there any chance that you have a STD? but think/hope that it is a yeast infection and not any thing else Assuming that it is a fungus infection 1)no bath salts/oils/bubble bath/perfumed soap/vaginal deodorants etc They remove natural protection 2)cotton underwear 3)nystatin cream /pessaries-also cream under foreskin of partner 4)Diflucan-fluconazole by mouth would clear bowel of yeast as bowel can often be a source of reinfection-available over the counter UK

    Before you buy any medication from an online pharmacy you should consider doing some inquiry on the company first. You only get inadequate information from those pharmacies that can't be trusted. You should be able to get enough and convincing information after searching from search engines such as Google and from lists of legit directory of Pharmacies. As those that get defrauded commonly release something over the internet to warn others. You need to find comfort from trusting an online pharmacy before placing an order. Follow pharmacies that are accredited by the VIPPS or Vet-VIPPS programs without prescription.

    you better find out if its a yeast infection first. You can also have her eat some yogurt every day, as it helps the body get back in balance after a round of antibiotics.

    yes you can use over the counter yeast infection cream on her.in fact my daughter used to get terrible diaper rashes and that is actually what the dr. prescribed for them after Desitin and other diaper rash creams wouldnt work

    Call her dr. and ask. Some meds don't mix and your daughter will really be in pain.Benedrl will also help with the itch. I used it with my daughter since 2yrs. She was allergic to many many things and I used the liquid on things that itch and the pills to help from inside.Please call the dr. first! MY daughter is also allergic to meds. So I have learned it is better to ask the dr. than have the child experience more problems.

    uh..mam, u are not supposed to give a 4 year old child antibiotics. she obviously has some sort of yeast overgrowth known as candida, and you should get her as much acidophilus as possible. antibiotics make it worse. visit curezone.com
