Most women can treat yeast infections at home with over-the-counter medications:

Miconazole (Monistat-Derm, Monistat Vaginal)

Tioconazole (Vagistat Vaginal)

Butoconazole (Femstat)

Clotrimazole (Femizole-7, Gyne-Lotrimin)

Follow the directions in the packaging. If the infection doesn't clear within a week or burning/itching becomes worse, discontinue use and see your doctor.
