What Are The Side Effects Of Using Anti Itch Cream Internally?

Hi, My sitter is from Chile And doesn t speak English. Someone advised her to purchase Monistat for east infection that she suspected she had, however instead of inserting the pill she squeezed the anti itch cream inside of her. (3 days ago) never realizing that there was a pill in the box. Yesterday she complained from a headache and abdominal pain. What should she do and how harmful was the cream to her ( since it was intended for external use only)? Should she dushe ?
