I have developed a yeast infection during my pregnancy and was prescribed terconazaole to treat it. I've only been using it for 3 nights now and I am very satisfied with it. Yes it is messy, and YES it drips all day and night and Yes sex is out of the question for 7 nights but so far all the ichtiness, and irritation has completely stopped. I only wish i was precribed this medication sooner.

I have been prescribed a 7-day treatment, and after only 3 days, I am tired of it. It is very messy - it drips all night and day, and the applicator needs to be washed and dried after each use. I do have relief from my symptoms, though I am not sure if the infection will clear up entirely because I am not finished with the treatment. Intercourse is out of the question for seven days, which adds...

Within 12 hours of my first dose I began to experience a raging fever, uncontrollable chills, dizziness and muscle aches. Thinking I had the flu I immediately went to the Urgent Care Center but tested negative for flu. Fever peaked at 102* and remained constant with uncontrollable chills and shakes. Even with Ibuprofen, fever remained above 100*. Took second dose (of 3) and continued with all flu symptoms. After 48 hours made the connection between my symptoms and the medication. Read label and saw that "adverse" effects were exactly what I was experiencing. Fortunately for me, I know myself well enough to know I don't typically run fevers higher than 99* even when I am very ill, so all these symptoms were very uncharacteristic for me with illness. I immediately stopped the medication and within 12 hours all "flu" symptoms including dizziness, chills, fever and body aches, stopped. Except for a headache that lasted about 24 hours. I reported my reaction to my doctor and will be filing a report with the FDA. This is a dangerous drug and I would proceed with caution when taking.Read More Read Less

I have had a yeast infection for several months. I have used diflucan twice and then prescribed terconazole treatment for 3 days. I should have looked up reviews before. By second day I woke up with fever and severe body aches. Went to doctor and said either side effect of medicine or viral infection. Stopped medication. Was fine the next morning.

This medication caused me to spend a day in the ER. I ended up with flu like symptoms from the waist down and with a high fever. The next day there was muscle pain all over my body. Be very careful if you are sensitive to any similar meds.

I've read these reviews and YIKES lots of people have had adverse side effects. I'm wondering what percentage they were prescribed. I believe mine is 0.4%. It's worked great. This is the first year in my life (i'm 29) that I've gotten a Yeast Infection. TERRIBLE. Nobody should ever have to deal with this. It makes you want to cut off your vagina. But I will say that I tried the over the counter Monostat which made it worse because I had an allergic reaction to it. The first time I tried Terconazole months ago when my doctor prescribed it, it was almost immediate relief. It is messy and the applicator isn't very easy or comfortable to get in, but it cleared up my YI in liek 3 or 4 days, but you use it for 7 days. AND it cleared up my allergic reaction to the Monostat. So far the only side effect I've noticed is burning upon first and sometimes second doses, which doesn't happen every time I use it (I've had 3 yeast infections now over the course of 6 months, and I think the culprit is the lubrication I use - girls be warned a lot of us are sensitive or allergic to glycerin so get a silicone based lube). The burning isn't unbearable though, but it's definitely still unpleasant. Although from the reviews I've read about Monostat, this drug seems better. Read More Read Less

This medication works well, however I experienced one of the side effects which was the cramps. Other than that, it did help.

This cleared my first ever yeast infection right up. I was on the three day dose and I had no side effects at all. The applicator is kind of intimidating because of the size, and I wish it was more rounded on top for easier application but other than that I definitely recommend this drug.

This medication has been a life saver! I felt relief after the first night of using it and now I am on my 5th night and feel no itching, burning and have no yeasty discharge. Some cream does come out during the day but anything beats not having a yeast infection. I had no side effects so DEFINITELY recommended.

This was a miracle drug for me. Yes, it was a little messy(I simply used it at bed time and wore a pad). But, messy I can handle. It's the burning and itching that drove me crazy.

I don't know what to think about this medicine. I am using the 3 day and I am on my 3rd day. I still have itching and burning, but it is also a side effect. It's extremely mess, you have got to wear a pad while using it. Also, I have kept a constant headache and body aches.

I have been battling a resistant yeast infection for the past 2 months. I have been given fluconazole pills every few days, but since that wasn't working, I was given something stronger. My doctor wanted me to try terconazole 7 day treatment. It is strong, a lot stronger than fluconazole and the side effects are like nothing I've ever experienced before. Extreme abdomen bloating and pain, body aches, chills, and headaches. I never knew a medicine could have these side effects. This medicine was awful to use, but I think it worked pretty well. Tonight is the last night, and I hope I do not have to take this again. It has been a rough 7 days. Read More Read Less
