I have had UTI and put on Bactrim for 10 days. One week later, felt like another UTI. I suffered in silence and finally after 2 weeks, contacted my physician. Urinalysis - ok but culture showed e-coli. Put on macbid but got yeast infection. One diflucan - did nothing One week later one more diflucan. Nothing. I bought Monostat-3 per physicians suggestion. One dose and I felt normal, but broke out in hives all over my legs. She is calling in a 7 day Diflucan. Would you suggest I stick with the monistat-3 and hope reactions don t get worse or should I try the 7 day Diflucan
Hi, thanks for using Chat Doctor Since you are likely experiencing an allergic reaction to the monist at, it would be best to discontinue it. Because you did not have a response to the rifleman your doctor may want to consider a swab to confirm the type of infections and possible resistance to medication. IF this is not an option then you can consider using the alternative medication suggested by your doctor. I hope this helps
