A female patient develops candidiasis (moniliasis) following a prolonged period of antibiotic therapy for a?

bladder infection caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. How do you account for the development of this concurrent vaginal infection?

The antibiotic also killed the normal bacterial flora present in the vagina. As a result, the yeast, which were normally held in check by competing with bacteria for resources, were able to thrive.

IF you take acidophilus as a dietary supplement daily you can prevent further yeast infections. Report It
