Yes. It is very common to get yeast infections while taking antibiotics. While these specific medicines are great at doing their job killing bacteria in other parts of your body, they can cause problems in other parts. The "good bacteria" in the vagina- bacteria that helps keep the natural yeast levels in your body regulated can be destroyed while taking antibiotics, which allows the yeast to then multiply and cause yeast infections.
