On average, we found that Monistat costs $17.19. This price can be affected by the number of days the treatment is used and purchasing brand names over generic brands.

Additional Costs of Monistat

The most popular add-on to the cost of a Monistat treatment is external itch relief cream. A package of Monistat can be purchased both with and without the cream, but the price may differ. However, purchasing the combination pack is cheaper than buying a separate itch relief cream, like Vagisil, which at CVS retails at $8.99.

On average, the cost of Monistat plus the external itch relief cream costs $18.94, which is $1.75 more than just the prefilled applicators. Although it costs more, there is the added benefit of relieving external itching and irritation. Yeast infections typically have this as a side effect, so it may be more beneficial to purchase this version.
