fluconazole for Onychomycosis, Fingernail: Had nail fungus of the finger nails on my left hand for roughly 8 years. 200 mg tabs, once a week cleared it in just over 3 months.

Diflucan (fluconazole) for Vaginal Yeast Infection: I've had to use Diflucan for yeast infections several times -- it always works wonders for me with no side effects! The bonus is that it's only one pill, and it works immediately. However... this last time I took it, I still felt a little 'off'. I still had some kind of bacterial infection! Now I'm on Flagyl.

Diflucan (fluconazole) for Vaginal Yeast Infection: I developed pneumonia after getting swine flu. I was on heavy duty antibiotics and was given diflucan as a prophylactic for yeast infections. I took approximately 4 doses over the course of two weeks. I recently noticed that a toe nail that had a fungus for over 40 years (!) is now growing in nice and pink! No more thick ugly yellow nail! Amazing! No other side effects were noticed!

Diflucan (fluconazole) for Vaginal Yeast Infection: This pill is wonderful. Relieves symptoms immediately and better than anything else. No side effects. It's my second time using the pill.

Diflucan (fluconazole) for Candida Infections, Systemic: Diflucan can change the serum level of Dilantin. In my father's case, it drove his Dilantin level to toxic levels within a matter of days (it reached 32; the normal threshold for seizure protection is a level between 10 and 20). His infectious disease specialist knew that he was on Dilantin (for a brain tumor) but did not warn us of a possible interaction. It took us a while to "even things out" afterward.

fluconazole for Vaginal Yeast Infection: It works well. Although it takes longer to take effect initially then over the counter vaginal creams. I like to take it and also apply one dose of cream in the vagina, to help combat the itching.

Diflucan (fluconazole) for Onychomycosis, Toenail: I had terrible toenail fungus for many years. I participated in a double blind study of Diflucan for toenail fungus, and it was like a miracle. Month by month the fungus disappeared. Each month, I had blood work done. There was never a change in my liver function studies. It has been 10 years and the fungus has never reappeared.

Diflucan (fluconazole) for Vaginal Yeast Infection: I must say that the pill worked well in doing it's job to clear the yeast infection. But, I went through horrible side effects. Continuous irritation of the vaginal area. I think I was just allergic to the medication! But for everyone else, thumbs up! That's if you are not allergic to it.

Diflucan (fluconazole) for Vaginal Yeast Infection: I've had recurring yeast infections and I have to say that this works amazingly. Quick relief of symptoms, which if anyone has an yeast infection can agree. This is the first thought that comes to mind. I'm so thankful that my doctor prescribed this for me.
