I have been on penacillin medicine for 2 weeks, can it cause vaginal itching?

Answers:

YES, Most definitely will. You have a yeast infection! Drink lots of water and try and pee as much as you can cause that will remove all the toxins from you body and the meds will come out faster, they have already done there work now you have to get rid of them, maybe take a laxative and remember drink, drink, drink!!! They have over the counter stuff you can use for yeast infection and there good, they really work, try one! Good Luck!!



It is likely you have developed a yeast infection. Because antibiotics kills off bacteria, they also kill off the good bacteria that your body needs. Yeast infections after antibiotic treatment are a common occurrence. There are over-the-counter kits you can use to test for yeast infection and treat it if you have one.



Yes it can. When I took penicillin a few years ago, I developed vaginal thrush, which would cause the itching as you mention.

Go to your pharmacist, then can give you some Canesten duo which will get rid of the thrush.
