| 1 | fungal infection | Dizziness, stomachache, dry mouth | Took with food and experienced nausea, headache, joint pain. Seemed OK next day with few symptoms but day 3-4 very INTENSE stomachache. So bad I got sent to ER because pain was awful They gave me 2 new drugs plus Maalox and hydration IV. I won't take this again. | F | 59 | 4 days 150 1X day | 9/27/2025 | 1 | Vaginal yeast infection | Diarrhea, anxiety, vomiting, dizziness, brain fog, nightmares | I was prescribed this once before and did not have an issue. This time around is VERY different. I've had to call out of work and school for the diarrhea and vomiting as well as the crippling anxiety. I also had very very vivid nightmares which I have not had since I was a child | F | 26 | 1 days 150mg 1X day | 3/28/2025 | 1 | Vaginal thrush, oral thrush | I'm no longer taking this medication. I suddenly went back to normal once the long acting dose was out of my body. Never again! | F | 42 | 150MG 1X day | 12/9/2024 Patient History | 1 | Urethral Yeast Infection | Extreme head pressure, itching crawling burning sensations in scalp, neuropathy in right foot, parathesia, ear fullness, tinnitus | This drug interacts with my SSRIs, which I was NOT told about, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. I took it 2 months ago, parathesia & neuropathy have improved, but the head pressure is almost worse. If anyone has had a similar reaction, PLEASE email me this is driving my insane, my head is constantly full, ears constantly ringing, & head is always itchy. | F | 26 | 1 days 150mg 1X day | 8/13/2024 | 1 | Yeast infection | I'm only 90 pounds and I was given 3 doses of it and since then I've been having heart racing, anxiety, fatigue, stomach pain and no appetite. Eating makes me want to throw up and dealing with low blood pressure. And it's interacting with my Seroquel but the Drs don't seem to care about that they say it's fine. | This drug should not be on the market at all. It's been a week since taking it and side effects are still strong but was told since I'm tiny it's gonna take a couple weeks for it to get out of my system. I feel like I'm going insane. I was fine before this drug. | F | 32 | 3 days 150 1X day | 6/9/2024 | 1 | Yeast infection | I experienced the worst stomach cramping that traveled to my side and then to my back. I have had severe stomach pain as well as severe back since taking it. I started on a Tuesday felt the pain overnight. Symptoms from my yeast infection still didn't go away so I had to take another on Saturday. It is now Tuesday I'm still experiencing this pain. Hopefully in a few days I'll feel better but I just wanted other people to know they're not alone with these symptoms. | F | 35 | 7 days 150 1X O | 6/4/2024 | 1 | Yeast infection | I experience extreme fatigue no energy, anxiety, brain fog, dizziness, insomnia, body muscle pain, legs cramping. | My yeast infection went away but these terrible side effects lasted for 1 week I will never take this medicine again it’s a nightmare | F | 60 | 1 days 150 mg 1X day | 3/11/2024 | 1 | Supposed yeast infection | Very lethargic. Numbness and joint issues. Right leg collapsed while walking and I fell and sprained my ankle. Very constipated. Could not finish dosage and yeast seemed to improve but started coming back 3rd day. I had to stop taking the med after four days. I was aware of a sense of disorientation and stiffness all over my body. | Why would pharmaceutical companies allow this drug to be on the market? 90 percent of these reviews I have read on line are describing exscruciating side effects from Diflucan. Get control of your pills big pharma!. Stop giving people harmful drugs. | F | 71 | 7 days 100 1X day | 12/8/2023 | 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 | 1 | Yeast infection | I Take this medication. Within hours my lips tingle, around the area become very red and swollen, and within the next day a pus filled blister appears. I have looked up various info to conclude I have FDE from this medication. Do not take if you want this to occur. It takes about 7-10 days to fully heal and disappear and eventually the blisters pop and appear crusty and herpes like looking. Its so gross and not very appealing in appearance. I have taken this medication for years as I get recurrent yeast infections. Within the last 2 years, this side effect now occurs to my body. It's not worth it to take anymore. | F | 32 | 1 days 150 1X day | 9/9/2023 | 1 | Oral Thrush from antibiotics | Extreme headache, fatigue, chest pain, nausea | I have never had side effect problems from a prescription until now, this medication has made my life a living hell. I noticed oral thrush on my tongue & went to the urgent care, god prescribed this shit instead of nystatin. The following morning after taking my first dose I had this awful headache & pressure like symptom, it's been over a week now & it has not subsided but has prolonged. This medicine should not be on the market for anyone.. it's absolutely horrible. I feel horrendous, I haven't felt like myself since starting this poison. Never again!!!! | F | 21 | 6 days 150mg 1X day | 9/4/2023 | 3 | Yeast infection | Dizziness, tired, stomachache. Not taking again. | Rapid heart beat, dizziness, tired, stomachache. | F | 44 | 2 days 150 mg 1X day | 9/1/2023 | 2 | yeast infection | Itcy and swollen eyelids | Have used this many times in the past without problems. Last year I used it and suspected an allergy so reverted back to messy pessaries and creams. After being totally fed up of consistent thrush I decided to use an oral tablet again but straight away, my eyelid swelling started. Now I just need to wait it out, argghh!! | F | 47 | 1 days 150 1X day | 8/28/2023 | 1 | Vaginal yeast infection from antibi | Rapid heart rate, feels like heart is pounding sometimes, stomach pains, burning in vag, after 3 days being off it I'm having anxiety from it with fast heart rate went to doctor. Now he wants me to have all kinds of heart tests. However, I really believe it's the diflucan. Open this gets out of my sister in the next few days. | I would consider myself allergic to this medication and next time we'll just use monistat. | F | 71 | 1 days 100 mg 1X day | 6/6/2023 | 1 | Oral candida after antibiotics | Headache like migraine.Dizziness and anxiety. | F | 86 | 4 days 50g 1X day | 6/1/2023 | 3 | Rare Joint infection | Very chapped lips, dry skin that seems to be exfoliating much more, zero energy or motivation. | I'll be taking this for a total of 6 months, so I really hope the side effects lessen. I can deal with the skin stuff, but the fatigue is overwhelming. No energy to get off the couch. My brain is wide awake, but my body just wants to lay down. | F | 43 | 1 months 400 1X day | 3/10/2023 | 1 | Yeast Infection | Horrible anxiety, chest tightness, racing heartbeat, shortness of breath, blurred vision | I got prescribed this medicine for a yeast infection and read into it before I took it, as I'm always anxious about taking a new medicine. Around 30 minutes after taking it, I noticed an anxiety attack coming out of nowhere. Previously, I never read anything about anxiety being caused by this, so it came as a shock. My chest has been tight, my heart racing, and shortness of breath all followed along with the anxiety attack. It's now been almost 3 hours since I took it and it's just as bad as when it first started. I hope that the one dose is enough for me because I never want to deal with these side effects again! | F | 19 | 1 days 150 mg 1X day | 2/3/2023 | 1 | Yeast infection | So thankful I found this thread. I have been experiencing intense mid back pain to the point of thinking my liver is inflamed or I have cancer :( because I had taken antibiotics that led to the yeast infection I really didn't put two together and thought it was from the antibiotics. I'm realizing I'm reacting to the drug and it has been extremely painful and uncomfortable. I've been nauseous, stomach cramps like constipation (although I'm not), tinnitus, moody, tired all the time…. I'm so disappointed with myself that I didn't realize sooner. I will NEVER take this again. | If you have any recommendations as to how to flush this crap out of my body please email me | F | 40 | 3 months 150 mg 4X AN | 1/31/2023 | 2 | Yeast infection | Hot flashes,burning sensation in skin,chest tightness/discomfort,abdominal pain, constipation, hives on faces,blister sores in mouth | I wish I would of know about the side effects of this drug before I put it in my body TWICE it's been a few weeks since I took this drug and the side effect experience sucks I called my gyno who prescribed it to me and he seems to think he knows my body better than me I never experienced anything like this since I took the pill I can't even drink alcohol or coffee without my sides hurting and chest burning this drug should be illegal!! I just want everything to go back to normal!!!!! I wouldn't recommend this drug to my worse enemy | F | 22 | 3 days 150 2X H | 1/12/2023 |
