| 3 | yeast infection | Face turned flushed..eyes cheeks and lips swole...never happened when taken several time before. They did something different to it. Did cure yeast infection though. | F | 31 | 1 days 150 mg | 4/13/2014 | 3 | Candida | muscle weakness, stomach aches, gastronomical issues, extreme hair loss!!!!!, | If it wasn't for the extreme hair loss I would never think of discontinuing my use of this drug. I take it so often because it has even helped with my depression. At this point i do feel like I am addicted to this drug thats how good it works for me. At times it can make me feel a little lethargic; but I just feel extremely laid back and calm with no anxiety. Although, after using it for 6 months straight I am experiencing thinning hair and it is devastating . I am now so depressed because Diflucan has been beneficial to me in treating my ailments even colds and apathy; but the hair loss I cannot take. I have even gone to the point now of putting monistat on my scalp hoping that will decrease the shedding because I figure that if I have a history of candida infection then maybe I need to treat the scalp and this will work to combat the hair loss. Now I believe that I am having negative side effects from that, such as headaches and foggy thinking. It seems like I can't win for losing….but if you are planning on taking Diflucan for a short period of time I definitely recommend the drug. It is when you take it for long durations past 2 and 3 months that you will experience the hair loss. It can be such a miracle drug that it cleans your organs and can even help with weight loss; I find it to be an energy booster ; -- I just wish it didn't cause you to lose your hair!!!! ------ | F | 34 | 1 years 75 2X W | 4/6/2014 | 1 | Antibiotics give me yeast infection | No known side effects... Last year I took diflucan and broke out on my lip which is still bruised and in two spots on my left thigh which is still bruised now it's couple months later I took a diflucan and it broke me out in the same exact spots itching turned red n purple I went to ER last year after first break out because my np couldn't figure out what was causing me to break out thinking it was sulfa n antibiotics but diflucan carries no sulfa like what really is going on ugh itch so freaking bad no new spots just the same ones HELP!! | F | 39 | 1 days 1 dose | 4/5/2014 | 3 | to prohibit yeast with antibiotic | My face turned hot, red and itchy. I had red blotches on my arms and legs. My lips and gums were tingling. | I had never had a problem with Diflucan until the last time I took it. This is the second time. Now I know I am allergic and will not take it again. | F | 51 | 1 days 1X day | 4/4/2014 | 1 | Yeast infection | 10 minutes after taking Diflucan my lips started to tingle and swell, the turned into blisters all over both lips and half way down my chin. I also took Diflucan a little over a month ago for the same reason and the same thing happened to my lips, and my eye also swelled up. I didn't put it together till it happend again this time. I have in the past taken Diflucan with no side effects at all so I don't know why all of a sudden I'm allergic to it. I have also developed a rash/hive under my breasts and have red sore bumps on a few of my fingers and wrists, but I'm not sure of its related to the Diflucan or not. | M | 32 | 1 days 150 mg 1X day | 3/17/2014 | 1 | yeast infection | 5 min after taking this stuff I felt tingles in my face. But morning I had hive blotches all over my face and lips swelled up like balloons. Face itchy and burning. . Took this years ago and never had a problem. Whats different in this stuff now to make people react like this??? My throat was even closing..this stuff need to be pulled off the shelf | F | 41 | 1 days | 3/14/2014 | 1 | yeast infection | lips burn and swell, red, itchy rash around mouth/chin/nose that dries out and peels. lips crack/bleed at the corners. rash lasts for about a week before healing. looks and feels horrible. | I have taken Diflucan several times in the past without any side effects but in the past year, it has started to cause a reaction each time I take it. I didn't make the connection until now. I had thought I was having an allergic reaction to a cosmetic I was using but just connected the dots--- within 30 minutes of taking Diflucan, my lips burn and swell and I get a rash that goes around my mouth, my chin, some on my cheeks and nose. The rash is bright red, itchy, raised bumps and lasts about a week. The rash dries out and peels as part of the healing process and looks horrible each step of the way. All you want to do is hide. I will never take Diflucan, orally, again, and will, instead use vaginal creams. | F | 36 | 1 days 150 mg 1X day | 2/23/2014 | 5 | Yeast infection | No side effects except worry after reading some of these comments here. | I think most of the negative comments are associated with allergies to this drug. If you are not allergic to it, then diflucan does what it's supposed to do: knock out the yeast infection. It relieved most of my symptoms In a couple of days after the first pill. Then I was prescribed one more three days later and the rest of the symptoms went away also. | F | 59 | 2 days 150 mg 1X day | 2/18/2014 | 1 | Yeast infection | :-( DIZZY, NAUSEOUS, HEADACHE, CLAMMY HOT FLASHES. I feel over all like I am extremely high on pain killers?!Or a very bad hangover! FAST HEART RATE, I'm very tired and emotional. Sensitive to noises! I will NEVER take this again. Everytime I take it the symptoms gets worse | F | 22 | 1 days 150mg | 2/5/2014 | 1 | Yeast infection from antibiotics | Nauseous, bad taste in mouth, tired, and after 1 day later I started vomiting. Hope this doesn't last long! The pharmacist told me diflucan drug stays in your system for a week. | F | 36 | 1 days 200 mg | 1/30/2014 | 4 | Yeast Infection | Nausea; stomach cramps; gas; overall "sick" feeling | Made me pretty queasy and I didn't feel so good. It was about 3 days after I took it that my yeast infection finally cleared up, but it didn't come back, so I'd say it worked. | F | 19 | 2 days 1X day | 1/14/2014 | 1 | yeast infection | M | 35 | 10 days 150 mg 1X day | 12/31/2013 Patient History | 3 | FUNGAL OVERGROWTH FROM ANTIBIOTICS | I felt dizzy flu like feeling and i had menustral cramps so bad cramping is a side effect of this medication. It made me feel foggy, like I had sleep deprivation By day two my liver was in pain it was pretty intense | It was hard to tell if Diflucan is causing a die off or side effects but I finally decided it was side effects. Diflucan did work it did stop my skin from itching like crazy and it worked fast but the side effects were not worth it to me . I went straight to my Chinese medicine doctor for an herbal natural formula it may take a couple days longer to work, but it highly effective and has no side effects at all. | F | 45 | 7 days 150 1X day | 12/29/2013 | 1 | Vaginal yeast infection | Huge painful blister on roof of mouth tried a few times happened both times | F | 41 | 1 days | 12/21/2013 | 1 | oral thrush | stopped after 1 dose.! 5 hours after taking it, started feeling anxious/panicky, horrible headache, nauseaus, insomnia and inner tremors when trying to sleep. Next day felt like a horrible hangover. | I have taken this before...about 7 years ago. Didn't feel a thing. A few years later it put me in the hospital hyperventilating, however at the time I didn't realize it was the diflucan. 1 year ago, gave me rapid heart rate. Now it did all this.... Am I allergic?? I really don't know. Not typical allergic reaction, just horrible reaction. Feels like a poison. Some people will say its the candida die off, but doctors don't support that theory. I will never take again, but now what do I do for yeast? Monistat cream raises my heart rate too. | F | 47 | 7 days 100mg 1X day | 10/19/2013 | 1 | Thrush | Tingling of face, hands and legs. Also numbness in arems and legs. Episodes of rapid heart and breathing rate. Twitching of legs and facial area. Affected mood. Chills and loss of appetite and fatique at the on set of reaction. | After taking one 150 mg pill, I began to have burning in lips and facial area. Symptoms began to grow, with severe fatigue, numbness is legs and arms. Rapid episodes of breathing after eating or moving around much. Obtained a steriod shot on 4th day of symptoms, which didn't seem to help. Benedryl everys 4/6 hours helped some. My husband missed work for a week caring for me. Throat swelled and finally facial twitching. Please be very cautious taking this medication. I thought twice I was going to die and the people at the ER couldn't believe that this was occuring 8 to 10 days after taking 1 pill of generic Diflucan !! | F | 36 | 1 days 150 MG 1X day | 10/12/2013 | 4 | Yeast infection | I have taken diflucan several times in the past 4-5 years. I have never noticed anything horrible for side effects such a palpitations or rash/hives. However I do get some utering cramping occasionally. I assume its because the ywast infection is pretty bad and the drug is working mightily to get rid of the yeast. I also had a small amount of fungus in my big right toe and it also cleared that up! So thought it was pretty cool it killed two birds with one stone! I sometimes have low back pain and on the first and second day, some white discharge. But again. I believe its the pill doing its job. I have auto immune disease so unfortunately I have to be on antibiotics quite a bit which causes the high amount of yeast infections I get. Sorry to hear so many bad stories. But for me, Diflucan/ diflucanazole works great!! | F | 33 | 1 days 150mg | 10/3/2013 | 2 | Yeast Infection | Strong Heart Palpitations | I just returned from the ER. I took one dose earlier today and this evening I got strong heart palpitations. Very scary-I thought this was the "big one"! This was my first time taking it, I will never take it again... | F | 55 | 1 days 150mg. 1X day | 8/22/2013 | 1 | thrush | Only after the third time of getting reaction did I realise it wad diflucan. Within an hour I had severe burning itch on face and all over body. Tongue and eyelid swelled up. Blisters on tongue making it difficult to eat or drink anything hot for over a week. Never again! | F | 39 | 1 days 150mg | 7/30/2013 | 3 | Vaginal Yeast Infection | Hives, itching, redness, tingling lips, tingling hands, tingling feet, swollen lips. I have taken this medication several times before and it worked perfectly. The last 3 times I took Diflucan, I broke out in hives. At first, I couldn't figure out what was making me have an allergic reaction. Diflucan was the last product I thought broke me out since I've taken it before with no problems. On the third breakout, I determined that it was the Diflucan pill which caused the hives. During the first breakouts, all the doctors and nurses informed me that it was highly unlikely that it was the Diflucan but clearly it was. | F | 26 | 1 days 150 MG | 7/21/2013 |
