| 1 | Vaginal yeast infection | After several days, I had a "herxheimer" reaction. Nausea, fatigue, dizziness, chills and headache. I had Epstein Barr Virus several years ago. Use a cream instead and a homeopathic one and change your Diet!!! No sugar or carbs!! | I don't like taking drugs, but my yeast infection lasted 2 months, so I was desperate. Find a nutritional doctor to help you. This drug was not for me!! | F | 1 days | 8/9/2006 | 5 | Fungal folliculitis | No side effects at all | Cleared up but took a long,long time. Doctor said infection was gone but skin took four months to recover. | F | 50 | 30 days | 4/20/2006 | 1 | candidiasis | I was on a small dose (50mg), and experienced a bit of vertigo (dizziness) everytime i took a tablet. The dizziness would only last for an hour or two. Then after about 2 months of treatment, I woke up one morning dizzy, and now I've had vertigo ever since (over 1 year ago). the vertigo and fatigue has improved (i could barely walk a year ago), but I am still no where near how I used to be. | This side effect is horrible. There should be large warnings about vertigo/dizziness and how they can last for over 1 year. I'm just hoping its not permanent. Either pull this drug off the market, or put proper warnings on it. | M | 60 days | 1/21/2006 | 4 | Yeast Infection | None. Long Term side effects: renal(kidney) and liver dysfunction (infrequent) Recurrence of infection | F | 25 | 2 years | 1/8/2006 | 3 | Yeast Infection | None.It did not clear up all symptoms of my yeast infection. Needed additional OTC treatment, herbs. | It should not be taken once as a cure all or as a preventative med for future yeasts infections. We host the yeast organism natually so yeast could never be eradicated and if the environment is right for this type of fungus it will germinate (grow) in spite of Diflucan. Frequent yeast infections are a sign of a major problem;work on eliminating source of yeast overproduction not symptoms only. Someone asked about the side effects of Diflucan. The side effects of Diflucan are hives, itching, swelling, sudden drop in blood pressure, difficulty breathing or swallowing, diarrhea, or abdominal pain. | F | 30 | 1 days | 1/8/2006 | 3 | vaginal yeast infection | none that I could tell | I'm not sure whether to keep taking it - the enclosed pamphlet did not give any direction on this | F | 46 | 1 days | 11/17/2005 | 5 | High Levels of Candida | None that I could tell. | I had abdominal distention and water retention almost every day. By mid day I went from a perfectly flat stomach to looking like I was 4 months pregnant. Once I started taking Diflucan it stopped. I had tried herbal antifungals, probiotics, the anti-candida diet, etc. but my levels always came up high. It will be interesting to see if they are normal now. | F | 39 | 7 days | 8/25/2005 | 5 | chronic yeast infections | nothing bad. Cured 2 years of biweekly yeast infections. | My gyno put me on a | F | 22 | 25 times | 5/21/2005 | 3 | CHRONIC YEAST INFECTIONS | MILD STOMACH UPSET AND TIREDNESS. | IN THE BEGINNING THIS MED WORK WONDERS, BUT NOW AFTER I AM TAKING IT ON AND OFF FOR 2 YEARS, IT RARELY HELPS. I FIND THE CREAMS NOT WORKING ANYMORE EITHER. I HAVE FOUND SOME RELIEF WITH ZITHROMAX 1200 MG. | F | 27 | 2 years | 4/15/2005 | 5 | skin fungus | none | Greatly improved a low level sinus infection or chemtrail allergy and the resulting fatigue and headaches that I have had for years. Seems to have also cleared up persistent skin fungus and boosted my immune system. Can be expensive to order online from some overseas sites - search for lower priced generic. Take it for several days. | M | 53 | 7 days | 2/12/2005 | 3 | Preventative for recurring yeast | none | I am a chronic yeast infectin sufferer. I take Diflucan as a preventative medicine usually 2 times per month...but worry about long term side effects. Does anyone know of any? | F | 39 | 1 years | 2/7/2005 |
