Good Neighbor Pharmacy Miconazole 3 is a medication used to treat vaginal yeast infections and relieve external itching and irritation caused by these infections. It works by stopping the growth of the yeast that causes the infection. For adults and children aged 12 and over, it is taken as a suppository inserted into the vagina at bedtime for three nights in a row, or as an external cream applied to the irritated skin twice daily for up to seven days. It's important to note that you should not use this medication if you have never had a vaginal yeast infection diagnosed by a doctor. Additionally, if you are taking the blood thinner warfarin, you should consult a doctor or pharmacist before using this medication, as it may increase the risk of bleeding or bruising.
