Question: are terconazole and monistat the same?
Answer: Unlike miconazole, terconazole can only be obtained with a prescription from a doctor. It is available in a 0.4% and 0.8% vaginal cream as well as an 80 mg vaginal suppository. Miconazole—also known by its brand name, Monistat—is an imidazole antifungal drug that is available over the counter.
