 1  yeast infection Burning, tingling, swelling between my ring finger and index finger. I have tried this drug on three separate occasions and had the same reaction, not putting it together that it was the Difulcan causing it. My fingers were bright red, swollen up big and they were hard, then it would turn to huge blisters that eventually would peel off. This reaction is not worth taking this medicine again. F 46 1 days

 1  Thrush Started with lethargy. Then chest pain. Then a numb lip. Spent the night at the ER. Then itchiest rash of my life all over hands, feet, knees and elbows. Then extreme joint stiffness like arthritis, could barely walk. Weakness. Then swollen lips and face. This has been going on for 6 days so far after a 1 off dose of 150mg. I would LOVE this drug company to cover all my medical expenses thanks to their pathetic drug! I still am not through this hell, this is the next worst thing to Flagyl!!!! F 31 1 days

 3  For continual vaginal infection My side effects didn't start until Sat. Feb 27, 2016 which was one week ago. I have taken this med many times for only one dose and never had a problem. This time I have been taking it for 5 weeks and have broke out in a terrible rash, red raised, itchy, chills. Went to my family doc and she told me to stop the Diflucan and called in a Rx for Prednizone, 20mg, 2 per day for 7 days. Hopefully, this will take care of the rash and if not I'll be going back to the doctor. This terrible rash did not start for 5 weeks on this med. One dose I have never had a problem. F 58 5 weeks

 1  Vaginal Candisias I taken it before an never had side effects before but this time I ended up with bad acid reflux reaction even when I first took it was like it ended up snapping something in my left side so quick! Then it was like i was burping and burping then I spit up continously then I developed a sore throat felt like I was getting choked took a 12.5 mg of benadryl , didn't work so I took another one it equaled to 25 mg of benadryl woke up so groggy, been having chest pain, feeling shortness of breath ,spasming in the back and stomach burning. I'm never taking this again as I feel like I'm hyperventilating because of the pain. Talked to pharmacist she said it must be reacting to my prevacid as taking prevacid with antifungals make me more sensitive . F 38 1 days

 1  Possible skin fungal I didn't experience any symptoms the day of. And two days later- my body was covered with several hundred tiny weeping red bumps. They're still here 4 days later and I've been isolating myself at home because of it. Extreme itching that keeps me up at night. Severe mental trauma because I'm not sure if I will have a lot of scars after this ordeal is over. Some areas- where I scratched a lot in my sleep- were especially bad. F 28 1 days

 1  Yeast infection Shortly after taking pill, my right index finger started to inch and a hour later began to swell. A huge blister appeared on my finger. I couldnt understand why only one of my fingers was effected. After this happened for the second time, I put two and two together. The common denominator was the diflucan. I will use a vaginal cream going forward. F 35 1 days
