The type and course of yeast infection treatment vary depending on the frequency and severity of the infection. If you have infrequent infections and mild to moderate symptoms, your doctor might recommend: • Short-Course Vaginal Therapy Your doctor will prescribe antifungal medication for 3 to 7 days to cure your yeast infection. • Single-Dose Oral Medication Your doctor might prescribe a single-dose oral medication. If you have severe symptoms, you may take two single doses with a three-day interval. However, this medication is not recommended if you are pregnant. For frequent yeast infections and severe symptoms, your doctor might recommend: • Long-Course Vaginal Therapy Your doctor will prescribe antifungal medication for 2 weeks. After that, they will ask you to continue the same once a week for six months. • Multidose Oral Medication If you have severe symptoms and are not pregnant, your doctor might prescribe 2 to 3 doses of oral antifungal medication. • Azole Resistant Therapy Your doctor will recommend this therapy only if your yeast infection is caused by candida fungus.
