Diflucan (Fluconazole) is a prescription antifungal medication. It is approved to treat a variety of different fungal infections, such as yeast infections and thrush. The drug can also be used to prevent yeast infections in people undergoing bone marrow transplantations.
Brand-name Diflucan is made by Pfizer, Inc. Generic versions are made by various manufacturers. Diflucan belongs to a group of medications known commonly as "azole" antifungals. It works by inhibiting an enzyme that is used by fungal cells to make ergosterol, an important component of the fungal cell membrane. As a result, there is not enough ergosterol (and too much of the compounds that are normally used to make it), and fungal growth is inhibited. Some general considerations for those taking Diflucan include the following: * Diflucan comes in tablet, suspension (oral liquid), and injectable form. * Unlike most other yeast infection medications, Diflucan is not used vaginally. It works through the bloodstream to treat yeast infections. * You can take a dose either with or without food and at any time of the day. * Be sure to shake the oral suspension form well before each dose. * For the medication to work properly, it must be taken as prescribed. Just like any medicine, Diflucan may cause side effects. However, not everyone who takes the drug will experience problems. Most people actually tolerate it quite well. If side effects do occur, in most cases, they are minor and either require no treatment or can easily be treated by you or your healthcare provider. Serious side effects are less common. Some of the most common side effects include but are not limited to: * Headache * Nausea * Abdominal pain (stomach pain). What Should I Do If I Miss a Dose of Diflucan? Usually, this is not an issue, since Diflucan is most often taken as a single dose. However, the medication is sometimes taken for several doses. If you forget to take your dose, take the missed one as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, simply skip the one you missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Never take a double dose. Diflucan products (including the oral suspension) should be stored at room temperature, away from light and moisture. Keep this and all other medications out of the reach of children and pets. The oral suspension is good for two weeks after it is mixed by a pharmacist. |
