| 1 | vaginal yeast | full body hives that required trip to medical treatment facility where I was prescribed oral steroids as treatment. | I have used this drug for over 20 years and this is the first reaction to it. After reading similar accounts I wanted to post this. | F | 46 | 1 days 150 1X day | 3/8/2017 | 1 | Yeast Infection | Felt fine until few hours after taking. Got bad dizzy spell in store, but was luckily holding onto cart or would have fallen. Then, felt flushed, queasy very cold and generally not well. It seemed to dissipate for a bit. I was shaky with chills and felt like had a fever. My body was very weak even in morning unlike anything I've ever experienced. I have taken in past many times and never experienced an issue. I'm feeling better since it's been 24 hrs but still not 100% | GP refused to prescribe bc of dangerous side effects with antibiotic, but GYN did prescribe as she said safe. Apparently GP was right! DO NOT take this drug! | F | 39 | 1 days 200mg | 3/5/2017 | 1 | Vaginal yeast infection | Swollen bottom lip, red rash around bottom lip, blisters around the rim of my bottom lip. | I took this medication before about 5 years ago with no problems. I had a 2 dose prescription. 1 now and the other in 3 days.I did not take the second dose.My doctor seems to be unaware of this reaction. My bottom lip is both itchy and painful. I have taking benadryl hoping that this symptoms subside.I will not be taking this medication again. | F | 38 | 1 days 150 | 3/5/2017 | 1 | Yeast infection | Swollen face red burning patchy rash mainly on my face but also patches on arms and swollen sore eyes | F | 47 | 1 days 150mg | 2/20/2017 | 1 | Yest infection | Spinning for hours, eyes hurt, feel like throwing up. | Would never take medicine again. | F | 33 | 1 days 150 | 2/11/2017 | 1 | Yeast | I have taken this drug my whole life but the last time I took it I got hives and red cheeks and a gross blister next to my mouth, but thought hmm, lemme try this again like an idiot... Well here I am Covered in hives with oozing blisters on my face, I'm totally red, my cheeks are burning, I'm a MESS... is there sulfa in this now??!! Is the formula changed? Anyways, antihistamine isn't doing anything, so it's suffering time... | Never again will I take this drug, damn you diflucan | F | 43 | 10 times 150 1X M | 2/8/2017 | 1 | prescribed for toenail fungus | Not while I was taking it but delayed reaction a few months after I stopped taking it I lost a tremendous amount of hair. It was the only drug I was taking. Lost about 1/2 to 2/3 of my hair and it never grew back normally again. | It didn't work for the reason it was prescribed. | F | 49 | 6 months 1X W | 1/29/2017 | 1 | Yeast infection | Brain Fog, weak feeling, no energy. | Symptoms started 1 day after I started taking it and so far has lasted about 19 days. Symptoms are not improving at all. I'm scared!! | F | 41 | 1 days 150 | 1/17/2017 | 1 | vaginal yeast infection | Rash/blister on finger | I was prescribed Diflucan for a yeast infection. Soon after taking it, my ring finger started to tingle followed by itching. It then became inflamed and sensitive to touch. I was told that it was cellulitis. I was then put on prednisone, which causes a yeast infection so I had to take ANOTHER dose of Diflucan and the same exact thing happened again to the SAME finger. I explained to the doctor that this is not cellulitis and it has to be an allergic reaction to the Diflucan. I was then told that if that is the case I wouldn't have the same reaction in the same place. Boy was he WRONG! He also told me that all anti fungal medication has the same agents and that there was no substitution. So instead of taking the prednisone to heal my finger...I just had to endure the discomfort which lasts for about a week! I know physicians have a degree but they should pay close attention to their patients for we know our bodies! Diflucan has DEFINITELY changed!! | F | 41 | 1 days 150 MG | 12/26/2016 | 1 | Breast fungal infection | -eczematous red plaques around eyelids and other areas of face/cheeks/upper chest - patches of dry skin appeared on day 5 of therapy - full blown dry, flaky, inflamed, thickened skin rash on face in shape of butterfly that appeared on day 8 and looked purplish in color - swollen eye lids - skin peeled with fluids | I started diflucan 400 mg on 11/21 for breast fungal infection due to pumping and noticed tiny red bumpy rash on my torso and arms, which I thought was my pregnancy rash that's coming back. OB put me on prednisone 6 day dose pack and day 3 of prednisone (day 5 diflucan), I noticed spots of dry patches appearing on my face. I thought it was the original rash, but it flared up 3 days later to covering my entire upper chest and face. I stopped day 6 of prednisone thinking it was reaction to it, but rash still remained and didn't improve. Finally, stopped taking diflucan yesterday 12/4 and I'm seeing a slight improvement in the rash. This was a delayed reaction since prednisone burst suppressed the rash until my dose was low enough that the rash emerged. | F | 34 | 2 weeks 200 mg | 12/5/2016 | 1 | Yeast infection | Hives, blisters, itchy red patches on my arms, chest, face, and legs. I have been to the ER 3 times from the side effects of this drug. I wish I had been given facts on this drug before taking it. | F | 48 | 1 days 150 mg | 12/1/2016 | 1 | Yeast infection | About 20 minutes after taking the medication my left palm starts to tingle and get hot. It also gets really itchy for days, when the itchiness goes away it burns and turns into a blister. It's always on the same hand on the same Palm, and follows the same pattern / outline. The skin peels off a couple weeks later and I'm left with new skin underneath that is extremely sensitive to be touched,cold or hot temperaturesauce. It's absolutely miserable | F | 29 | 1 days 150mg | 11/28/2016 | 1 | Thrush caused by antibiotics | After a few hours of taking the single 150mg dose fluconazole, just under my bottom lip i felt like it was burning, it was quite red and i noticed tiny clusters of blisters in that spot, then the burning sensation was accompanied by an intense constant itchiness. my cheeks glowed red, and i have been going through dizzy spells on and off, today is my second day after taking the tablet and i feel generally unwell, lack of energy,tired sort of similar to a hang over. | I have taken Diflucan a number of times in the past and have never had any form of negative reaction to this medication...have they changed the formula or what's going on there? | F | 29 | 1 days 150mg | 11/8/2016 | 1 | Yeast | Severe itchy skin rashes on my hand, arm, lips and mouth. The same reaction happened in the same spots as I took this medication few months ago. | F | 45 | 1 days 150 | 10/30/2016 | 1 | Post op yeast infection | This is the 4th time I've gotten red patches that turn to huge blisters on my feet and hands. Also on my vagina.I just realized it was the diflucan because I was taking other meds before. One hour after taking it, I knew because those old spots (yes, I'm scarred on my hand from this)immediately became inflamed. They've given me prednisone and after 4 days I'm still in agony! I've had to miss work in the past for this,and get tested for an auto immune disease, etc...The company should really have to pay for all of these hospital visits. Saddest issue is the medication stays in your system for up to 2 months (per Poison control) and no way to reverse the medication. Not worth the risk! Nothing works for relief. | F | 41 | 1 days | 10/29/2016 | 1 | Yeast Infection | Swollen lips. Itching top and lower lip. Dark spots on lips. | F | 35 | 1 days 1 day | 10/6/2016 | 1 | I have severe burns on the palms of my hands this is the second time this has happened . that's the only way I can explains it I have used this in the past and never had a problem something has changed my skin is starting to peel . | F | 52 | 1 days 1 | 10/3/2016 | 1 | Yeast infection | I had hives on my face...jaw, lip and Eyelids. I've always used this is the past without any problems but the last two times I used it this happened. I don't know what could've changed but I can't use it anymore. | F | 41 | 1 days | 9/19/2016 | 1 | Yeast infection | I took diflucan at the first signs of yeast infection ... Have red bumps on the top and bottom of my lips also the sides of my mouth ... Severe itching around my mouth ... | Would not ever take this medication again .. I had the same expierence in May I thought it was from another medication because I was taking something else at the time . Now I know it was from this medicine .. Have dark spots on the side of my lips .. Sin discoloration .. | F | 38 | 1 days 10mg | 8/30/2016 | 1 | Yeast infection | I've taken this drug before, and this time around 20 minutes after taking it the left side of my top and lower lip were swollen and burning, never had any side effects till now.
