This medication is used to treat fungal infections, such as a vaginal year infection, which does not cause such an odor, according to the symptoms listed by the NIH.

An odor is usually caused by a bacterial infection, which will require an antibiotic from your doctor. The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain, and diarrhea.

Has there been any change?

I apologize, that should read yeast infection, rather then year. As in vaginal Thrush.
