 1  Skin yeast I won’t ever take this drug again. For the first 24 hours my chest felt tight like I had asthma. Then I had what I assume is gas pain on my left side from waist to shoulder blade. This lasted for another 6 days. I only took one 150 mg dose. Horrible drug. And it didn’t work. F 65 1 days

 1  Yeast infection Mouth and vaginal blisters and sores A few years ago I took Diflucan as a preventative due to needing a high dose antibiotic. A couple days later, I got painful sores on my vagina and on the inside of my mouth, along with a sore/burning tongue. The doctor thought it was related to the high doses of Bactrim I was taking, and switched me to another med. Fast forward to now, I get a yeast infection after spending two days in a bathing suit at a water park. Doctor prescribes Diflucan. A few hours after taking the 1st dose, I started getting vaginal blisters again. I only took the first dose--the next is due tomorrow, and I'm not going to take it. At this point, I have several painful, open sores on both my vagina and my mouth. Since this is the only thing I took this time, I know it's from the Diflucan. Never taking this again! F 31 1 days

 3  Vaginal Yeast Infection After recent previous experiences with Duflucan, I have concluded that the side effects I experienced were directly associated with the drug. With each subsequent use, I would experience a burning,tingly, itching sensation with notable redness and edema to the upper and lower lip area, as well as to the lower mandible and nose. The sensations are comparable to an onset of a cold sore outbreak. Within days, the skin begins to dry and peel and eventually, heel with no notable scarring or pigmentation. Although it's efficacy in treating yeast infections is promising, the possibility for worsened hypersensitivity upon subsequent dosing remains a deterrent. Usage should be determined on a risk:benefit basis with consultation of practitioner. F 27 1 days

 3  Valley Fever At first, dry chapped, peeling lips. After about a month my scalp started itching. I've tried many OTC shampoos for it from inexpensive to expensive and none of them have helped. My hair is thinning. I have to clean my hairbrush daily. My eyelashes are thinning too. I'm hoping that I can get off of this drug before I lose so much I have to wear a hat or buy a wig. Valley Fever is dangerous. I know I need this medication, but am stressing out about the hair loss and insane itching. There was no mention of these side effects with the drug. More research needs to be done, or honesty from the pharmaceutical company. F 48 4 months

 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

 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
