Will AZO Yeast Treatment Interfere With The Drugs Which I Take Regularly?

Contemplating taking AZO yeast tablets for a yeast infection which has been treated with fluconazole, which did not cure the burning sensation and redness in the area/presently my gyno has suggested oatmeal sitz baths which I am doing 2 x daily ..........most on my mind besides getting some relief is if AZO yeast treatment interferes with Rx drugs I take regularly: lipitor, bisoprolol and HCTZ

Hi,

Welcome to HCM.

I understand your concern that antifungal therapy has not been very successful, but fungi now, most commonly yeasts are also showing some resistance and need to be tested for antifungal susceptibility. I suggest you get an antifungal susceptibility testing done for your infection and get appropriate antifungal prescription.
AZO yeast is a homeopathic medicine most unlikely to interfere with your present treatment but I would still suggest you go for change in antifungal prescription rather than AZO yeast.
Thanks.
