Vaginal Infection (Metronidazole, Clindamycin, Fluconazole, Clotrimazole, Miconazole)

Get targeted relief for vaginal symptoms with treatment based on the most likely cause.

How treatment is selected: Bacterial vaginosis is commonly treated with metronidazole or clindamycin. Vulvovaginal candidiasis is treated with an antifungal such as fluconazole, clotrimazole, or miconazole. Symptoms can overlap with sexually transmitted infections, irritation, and other conditions, so history, pregnancy status, recurrence, and sometimes testing matter.

What to expect: Use the selected medicine exactly as directed and avoid self-treating repeated symptoms without evaluation. Your clinician should review possible pregnancy, medication interactions, diabetes, recent antibiotics, STI exposure, pelvic pain, fever, sores, bleeding, or recurrent infection. Severe pain, fever, pregnancy with concerning symptoms, or symptoms after treatment may require in-person testing.
