    Your online consultation with a Nurx medical provider costs $65, which you pay when you submit your request for care. This is not covered by insurance.

  • What medication does Nurx prescribe for yeast infections?

  • Who can use yeast infection treatment from Nurx?

    We are able to offer yeast infection treatment to patients who are diagnosed with a yeast infection by a Nurx medical provider. If you believe you may have a yeast infection, request treatment by completing a health evaluation. We prescribe yeast infection treatment to patients 18 and up where medically appropriate.

    While Fluconazole is generally considered a safe medication, it may not be a good fit for certain individuals. Please inform your medical provider if you have had an allergic reaction to Fluconazole or other antifungal medications in the past, or have heart disease, kidney or liver problems.

    Additionally, we do not recommend or prescribe Fluconazole to those who are currently pregnant. If you are experiencing a yeast infection during pregnancy, we recommend over-the-counter products to help treat and alleviate symptoms.

  • What's the difference between bacterial vaginosis and yeast infections?

    A yeast infection is a fungal infection that is treated with antifungal medication. It can cause symptoms including thick, white vaginal discharge; itching, irritation, and soreness of the vulva; pain or discomfort during sex or urination; and redness and swelling of the vulva.

    Bacterial vaginosis is a bacterial infection that is treated with antibiotics. It can cause symptoms including thin gray, green, or white vaginal discharge; a strong unusual odor (especially after sex or menstruation); and burning during urination.
