For intravaginal (inside the vagina) use, patients should not use tampons at the same time and should use another form of contraception to prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections.
How Monistat works in the bodyMiconazole is an antifungal medication used to treat Candida infections. It works in three main ways. First, it stops the Candida cells from producing a certain type of molecule called ergosterol, which is important for the cell's structure and function. Second, it increases the production of substances called reactive oxygen species (ROS) inside the cells, which can lead to cell death. Third, it causes Candida cells to produce more of a molecule called farnesol, which prevents them from forming biofilms that are resistant to antibiotics. It also blocks certain "pumps" inside Candida cells that
