My Doctor gave me two pills; One for each week. So far no side effects at all (and no this is not my only medication.) When monistat wouldn't work, this works. It's so much easier than the creams and weird egg thing and a lot less messier.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!! Do not take this medication until you've looked up all side effects. I've personally experienced, light-headedness, shortness of breath and throbbing heart beat (which make it hard for me to fall/stay asleep), some nausea, and loss of appetite. I SEVERELY DO NOT think it's worth it. I had to go to the ER just for them to tell me it's fine BUT I DO NOT FEEL FINE

Day two and I’m still in agony. Called and getting a second pill. Pain is horrific from this yeast infection. I’m coming unglued. Crying and such after using restroom.
