Question : I have vaginal itching, I have treated it with Vagisil to no avail. Will Nitrofurantoin Mono Help?

Brief Answer:
Consult an OBGYN

Detailed Answer:
Hi ,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
If the vaginal itching is not getting relieved by vagisil.
It is unlikely to get relieved by nitrofurantoin.
You should get examined internally by an OBGYN specialist to rule out any infection and get further management accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
