Well - I hope you are NOT taking the antibiotics for the yeast infection… because it will not help. What I do when I need to take antibiotics is start eating yogurt or taking acidolpholis. ( i know that is not spelled correctly… ) Doing something preventative like that may help so you would not have to go on the Monistat.

The proper spelling is acidophilus which comes in a few differant forms and helps regulate the natural bacteria in your body. These are helpful in preventing a yeast infection so is eating yogurt with active or live cultures. You shouldn’t you the monistate unless you actually get a yeast infection. I have been on a lot of antibiotics and only twice got a yeast infection. Your body will react differently to every antibiotic and how long your on it.
