| 3 | Yeast Infection | Deep upper-left chest pain experienced the day after taking the pill. | I dont know if this is a serious side effect. My first time talking the pill. Cleared the infection really fast but the chest pain is worrying me because its really inches away from my heart | F | 22 | 1 days 150 mg | 11/17/2015 | 3 | Yeast infection | I have used diflucan at least 10 years back and had no side effects. But about 3 yrs ago I used it again and I felt feverish, felt tingling and itching on my lips. When I woke the next morning both top and bottom lip were swollen and had blisters on the roof of my mouth. I loved diflucan because it was one pill a and not 3-7 days of mushy mess with the vaginal creams. But can't use it any longer. | F | 43 | 1 days 150 | 10/14/2015 | 5 | Yeast infection | Within 30 minutes of taking, my eyelid began to itch, burn and swell. The next day, experienced the same symptoms, but entire eyelid began to peel. These symptoms continued for a week. | I have taken Difucan in the past and never experienced this or any other negative side effect. | F | 51 | 1 days 150 MG | 10/8/2015 | 4 | Fungle Meningitis | Dry skin, cracked dry lips, eye lashes falling out. | It has worked well for me & my situation aside from my eye lashes falling out I'm happy with it. I'm currently as of 10-2-15 I take 800mg will hopefully be reduced to 600mg in another month. Will be a life long medication for me. | F | 26 | 4 months 800 | 10/2/2015 | 1 | yeast infection | Half of my lip swells up for 3 days. When the swelling goes down there is a black mark on my lip. Looks disgusting | F | 34 | 1 days 1pill | 9/28/2015 | 1 | yeast infection | I had taken in past when was prescription and maybe twice since over counter. The last 2 times my face has broken out in hives, feels really warm and prickly. This lasted for a good 24 hours. Not sure what is going on as I never had any problems in the past. | F | 55 | 1X day | 9/23/2015 | 1 | yeast infection | I took this pill before I went to bed. When I woke up the next morning, I was itching all over. My stomach around my belly button was literally on fire and itching. I took a shower,popped a Bendedryl, and put some cortisone cream on my stomach. Within 4 hours I had welts all over my stomach. I went back to the Dr.and he said it was an allergic reaction to the Diflucan. I had to get 2 shots in the office and now on different antibiotics. Woke up this morning to more itching and the swelling hasn't gone down. When will I get some relief!? | F | 35 | 1 days 150 | 9/23/2015 | 1 | Fungi infection on scalp | I am having random heart palpitations that started on the third day. It is an overwhelming feeling that feels like my heart sits at my throat as if it were effecting my Thyroid. Never felt anything like this, it's a bit scary when it doesn't seem to go away for up to hours at a time or just randomly coming and going throughout the day. It will make my heart rate randomly spike up at the smallest effort, I run a farm and am an athlete I've never experienced such strange behavior from my heart rate. It makes me a bit panicky and certainly create a lot of worry when I get this feeling that I can't really explain other than my heart sitting in my throat. I've stopped taking the pill three days ago when I realized that what I was feeling must have been a side effect, now from seeing others comments I am certain it is a side effect. DO NO TAKE THIS DRUG, THERE ARE WAY BETTER WAYS TO CONTROL FUNGI STARTING WITH PROPER DIET. A lot of scientific research has gone into this and it is well proven | IT SUCKS. | M | 33 | 5 days 100mg 1X day | 9/1/2015 | 1 | vaginal yeast infection | Took diflucan, had dinner and a Margarita 3 hours later. Caused me to faint and vomit. 2 days later stomach is still off with nausea, tenderness and diarrhea. Also headache, hot and cold sweats and extreme fatigue. Vaginal symptoms are still present, ie. itching, redness/irritation and some discharge. | Have taken this in the past with no adverse reactions. | F | 35 | 1 days 100mg | 8/27/2015 | 1 | yeast infection | Swollen lips, itching all over, dry throat | When I first took diflucan 10 yrs ago, it worked, last year and this time had side effects, different company? | F | 52 | 1 days 150 | 8/14/2015 | 1 | Vaginal yeast infection | Swollen, itchy eye lid, hives the size of quarters, burning itching ear, bottom lip which is by far one of the most irritating itching and burning. Swelling in my lips and severe burning around my nose. After burning for 3 days my skin begin to peel badly. | I've taken this drug several times over the years, I've never experienced anything like this before. I'm almost certain this drug has been altered. Not safe, should be pulled from drug stores | F | 36 | 1 days 150 | 7/30/2015 | 3 | Yeast infection | SWOLLEN bottom lip and canker sores | It rids the yeast infection but causes other issues for me that never happened before when I previously took diflucan! However this is the second time I've experienced the same side effect! | F | 31 | 1 days | 7/12/2015 | 4 | Jock itch, subcutaneous | Loose stools first day. Severe itching all over body day 2-3. Rash. | It worked. Killed everything | M | 39 | 1 days 150 | 6/12/2015 | 2 | Yeast infection | Still not getting rid of my yeast infection | F | 8 times 150 | 6/12/2015 | 1 | infection | My left pinky finger would begin itching at the knuckle very intensely and then the swelling would always begin a few seconds after. Only that one finger... Once a year... Could not figure out what was causing it until this time. I hasn't taken this pill in a couple years and also had not had a breakout on my finger. I took one the other day and a few hours later it began again. So this time I put two and two together and researched online. Never will I ever take it again. Every time this happens it itches so badly I want to scratch my skin off!!! My knuckle turns purple and my whole finger swells up so much it hurts. Then come the blisters... And the peeling off the skin. Two days later and it is still itching me to death!!!!!! | Avoid it..... Not worth it. Thank god I figured out what was causing this. | F | 25 | 5 years 1 | 5/14/2015 | 2 | Yeast Infection | Tingling face,headaches,dry throat, mild cramping, skin peeling from palms of hands & hair loss. | Still have yeast infection. After all this and also did monistat. I have fluid rushing all through my head not sure if its because of the Fluconazole or not though. It burns and now have strep throat. | F | 39 | 4 weeks 150 | 5/8/2015 | 2 | cryptococcal gattii, pulmonary | fatigue, skin rashes, peeling lips, peeling skin on feet and ankles, night sweats, loss of appetite, weight loss, dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), weakness, leg stiffness, and severe hair loss on head and body after 3 months and I needed to wear hats. | 5 months on 800 mg daily and then halved to 400mg due to adverse effects. Continued another 7 months, 13 months in total. Nasty stuff. And in addition to the side effects I experienced, I was taking monthly blood tests,,and numerous other tests and scans to watch lung, liver and heart. I feel better now and fungus seems to be gone but I know it can relapse too. It took 7 months to diagnose and left me with damaged lungs,chronic Bronchiectasis. After 5 months off drug, my hair is returning but is very thin. | F | 61 | 13 months 800-400 1X day | 4/21/2015 | 1 | Yeast Infection | Aside from the yeast infection, I felt fine when I started taking the one 150mg pill of Fluconazole (the generic Diflucan), but later that day I started feeling as if I was coming down with the flu and developed an itchy scalp. I figured I was having an allergic reaction and took Benadryl and went to bed. The next day it had spread to my buttocks, the nape of my neck and was even more severe on the back of my scalp now going from ear to ear. I wasn't able to see my doctor until the following week and he prescribed a prednisone pack, which after a week of treatment finally stopped the scalp and neck itching. Now the cheeks of my buttocks are still covered in a much larger area and are still burning and super itchy and the rash is bright red and this is 4 weeks later. I have another appointment with a specialist tomorrow. I know this is from the Diflucan, so it is my first and last time taking this medication. | F | 61 | 1 weeks 150 mg 1X day | 4/20/2015 | 1 | Yeast infection | Itchy mouth, red swollen eyes, face swelled up. Itchy hands and feet also swolen! Burning severely in my mouth and lips. | I have taken Diflucan previously over the years. Never had an issue. Took it this time and was in the worse pain of my life! My doctor said I had STEVEN JOHNSONS SYNDROME. I will never take this pill again! I'd rather try the yogurt method! I'm just curious as to why I was never allergic before? Perhaps they changed something in the pill? | F | 35 | 1 days 150 | 4/17/2015 | 5 | Valley Fever | Chapped lips, random bumps on arms, legs and palms(itchy like a bug bite), skin on bottoms of feet peeled completely off, welts on chins | I nearly died from Valley Fever so I honestly can't complain about the side effects of this drug because it most certainly saved my life. The harsh side effects come with high doses (600-800mg per day). Besides...the skin peeling off the soles of my feet I saw as a benefit. My feet now look as beautiful and soft as a newborn baby. This drug took away Valley Fever symptoms in just a few days. | F | 45 | 3 years 200 mg 1x | 4/16/2015 |
