| 5 | Yeast infection. | About an hour after taking this I had severe stomach pains , after a few hours it seemed to go away but then later that evening I got a severe headache and tenderness feeling on my scalp. The next day I had trouble getting deep breaths in and felt an overall heightened anxiety that I had not felt before. I just do not feel right since taking this. What the heck is in this medicine ?!!! I never ever will take again and I pray it goes away. | F | 45 | 1 days 150 MG 1X day | 11/7/2023 | 5 | Spider bite | F | 65 | 7 days 100mg 1X day | 10/16/2023 | 5 | valley fever | First I experienced chapped and peeling lips. After three months I experienced yeast die-off. As uncomfortable as the experience was, the Diflucan cured me of valley fever. After discontinuing Diflucan I experienced hair loss which is now growing back in. | F | 67 | 3 months 200mg 4X day | 10/5/2021 | 5 | Vaginal yeast I fection | I have acid reflux and after taking diflucan for 4 weeks 1x a week had very bad gas pains and stomach irritation. | 66 | 0 days 1X day | 9/20/2021 | 5 | Yeast Infection and Athletes Foot | I felt tired the day after taking the pill. So, stayed home and rested, drank fluids, ate right. Two days later took second pill and felt the same the following morning. But i was fine in a few days, and cleared up. | I had to take 2 rounds of antibiotics and it gave me a yeast infection and athletes foot. So I took 1 pill, then 3 days later took another. The yeast infection is gone and so is the athletes foot, but I think I may take one more dose to make sure it's gone. It was miserable and the Diflucan worked. | F | 62 | 2 days 200 mg 1X day | 6/18/2021 | 5 | Yeast infection | I was given one dose of diflucan an the next day developed a sore throat, a cold sore in the corner of my mouth an a blister on the outside of my bottom lip and one inside on my gum that is so painfuL I havent been able to eat for the last 3 days. | I feel so horrible right now I'm goin to ask my Dr for a cream next time cause this is rediculous | F | 46 | 1 times 1X O | 10/15/2020 | 5 | Systemic Candida and Malassezia infection | Lack of sleep at first and then all of the die off symptoms. The first 2 weeks were pure hell. I had so much energy after but then I developed thrush and a yeast infection. So the 3rd week I'm physically exhausted, itching...randomly throughout common infection sites afterwards, loss of appetite. Eyelash and hair loss. We will see what the 4th week brings but I can't wait for this to be over with. | I recommend supplementing with Mary Ruth's Candida Cleanse supplements. The enzymes help break down the cell walls of yeasts and the probiotics protect the lining of the digestive system so yeasts can't adhere. Heal the gut. And then buy a lactobacillus probiotic and mix with water and spray all over the face, hair, body after you shower. It will rebuild your skin's protective barrier. Unless you do these 2 things you will be reinfected with time. | F | 28 | 1 months 200mg 1X day | 7/24/2020 | 5 | Taking it for gastritus | Some dizziness | F | 61 | 20 days 200mg per | 6/18/2020 | 5 | Yeast | It helped me a lot. I did have some itching afterwards but I feel it was due to the large amounts of yeast living in my body that it was trying to manage and to balance back between my body. I am grateful for such a wonderful medication. | I am grateful for this medication. This drug is a god send in my life .I will continue to be a customer as long as I need this drug / or when I need this drug . I have lupus and this it is very common for yeast to increase so taking diflucan is very helpful. And I am thankful so much!! | F | 43 | 3 days 150mg | 3/28/2020 | 5 | Yeast infection | As a patient with diabetes, yeast infections are unfortunately common. I take this everytime and it never fails me. | F | 21 | 3 days | 7/12/2017 | 5 | Candida systemic | I can admit many days the side effects are numerous and difficult but that is a clear sign that it is working. Spinning, confusion, mood swings, cotton mouth, frequent urination and even blood clots (thrombosis) Unable to function some days. These are symptoms and effects of candida die-off not the medicine. The fungus is to blame, just look up acytlehyde (might be spelled different) and then get excited you feel like heck because it is working. Most of my effects went away when I started drinking water one and half gallons per day. | I do want to reserve right to change my review as I still take the medication. You are able to contact me about my experience, so I hope you do and I hope you are blessed good health and prosperity. | M | 43 | 1 months 400mg per | 2/27/2017 | 5 | Male yeast infection from doxycycli | No side effects. | I feel bad so many have had bad reactions to this drug, but it has killed and cleared my yeast infection smoothly. | M | 44 | 2 weeks 150mg 1X W | 9/28/2016 | 5 | Systemic candida | Most of the reviews I have read for this drug seem to be "yeast die off" reactions and not allergic reactions. This is speaking from experience of fighting systemic yeast for 5 years and trying 12 different anti fungal treatments. A simple google search "herxheimer symptoms" will explain that most of these negative diflucan reviews are from patients that have a serious underlying yeast problems, that blame the drug for doing what it is designed to do: kill yeast in every area of your body. I am thankful for flucanazole, no other treatment penetrates deeply into most all tissues of your body to stop the yeast. The last straw for me, to seek RX treatment was fungal arthritis. It has worked perfectly. Sad that doctors don't know much about " herxing." It sounds like a lot of the patients would have benefitted from this drug if they did not run away at the first reaction. Dealing with yeast is a bit like a behavioral intervention, things get ugly , loud , worse, then they get better than ever. | One month into treatment Good side effects: as much energy as when I was 20 years old. Don't need caffeine, sleeping much less at night, joint pain is gone, no more carbohydrate cravings, emotional stability that I haven't experienced in years. Negative side effects: localized and temporary itching at various infection sites (legs, face, eyes, arms). A few sharp but brief headaches ( Google "Alzheimer's candida"). A few sharp but brief pains internally. Side Note: also taking 600 mg daily of OTC Allicin (garlic derived), as studies have indicated synergism when fighting yeast. | M | 33 | 2 months 300 mg | 7/22/2016 | 5 | Thrush | No side effects | Brilliant medicine cleared me up of my thrush | F | 39 | 7 days 150mg | 1/30/2016 | 5 | Yeast infection | Within 30 minutes of taking, my eyelid began to itch, burn and swell. The next day, experienced the same symptoms, but entire eyelid began to peel. These symptoms continued for a week. | I have taken Difucan in the past and never experienced this or any other negative side effect. | F | 51 | 1 days 150 MG | 10/8/2015 | 5 | Valley Fever | Chapped lips, random bumps on arms, legs and palms(itchy like a bug bite), skin on bottoms of feet peeled completely off, welts on chins | I nearly died from Valley Fever so I honestly can't complain about the side effects of this drug because it most certainly saved my life. The harsh side effects come with high doses (600-800mg per day). Besides...the skin peeling off the soles of my feet I saw as a benefit. My feet now look as beautiful and soft as a newborn baby. This drug took away Valley Fever symptoms in just a few days. | F | 45 | 3 years 200 mg 1x | 4/16/2015 | 5 | 10 day course of Flagyl | Never had any real side effects that were awful unlike Flagyl. A little tiredness, that is all. | Works like a charm to kill systemic yeast. | F | 61 | 1 days 150 mg 1X day | 1/17/2015 | 5 | vaginal yeast infection | Absolutely no side effects. | I have taken this before and it continues to work like a charm. | F | 17 | 1 days | 12/18/2014 | 5 | Yeast infection | Experienced diarrhea stomach pain and a little nausea | This is a miracle drug.. noticed relief of burning and itching within hours. Still felt itchy after the third day so took second dose. My only complaint is the nausea but I would take that over a yeast infection any day | F | 41 | 1 days 150 1X day | 11/12/2014 | 5 | Vaginal Yeast | None! :D | This medication was a BLESSING!!!!! My downstairs was on fire, itching so horribly I couldn't focus on anything. Took it and the symptoms started fading away. Now 2 hours later there is no itching!!!! The only complaint I have about this medicine is that it doesn't seem to completely clear redness - though I have very sensitive skin so for the average user it should work fine. First medication to work properly for me after a disastrous course of antibiotics. | F | 18 | 1 days 150 MG 1X day | 8/27/2014 |
