For Tinea Versicolor "No side effects at all, male 33 with candida in groin, on my 2nd dose and I see and feel a big difference, the candida is going away I might need one more dose in case, to prevent. But no side effects on me, and I'm on Lexapro, beta blockers."

For Tinea Versicolor "After nine years with a fungal infection on the skin, I was given 100 MG/week for a month. I already took the last pill of the course, and all it has done so far is turn the spots pink and make them slightly bigger, and some itched more often (although one looks like it's starting to disappear)! But the side effects! Oh, the side effects! After the first pill, I felt extremely dizzy, headachy, and nauseous for an hour after bedtime. The next day, I had little appetite that only recovered that evening. The next two times, I took two Rolaids, which helped with the nausea. That left the headache to contend with all day the day after I took the pill.I took two ibuprofen three times to combat the headaches on the last pill. What a joke!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I had a UTI which I’m prone too I tend to hold my pee when I am sleeping. I know I know it’s a bad habit lol anyways. I have keflex for UTI, and that caused a yeast infection. I thought I’d try some monistat 7 and it only got worse. Finally like three days into the monistat I was like I have to take the diflucan. I was putting it off because apparently it interacts with Zoloft but I called the pharmacist and she was like nope you’re fine take the pill. I would say about an hour after the pill, I felt relief. I was so freaking swollen, irritated, and just in pain down there. I literally wanted to cry before taking the pill. I'm so happy to finally feel relief. For me I had an upset stomach for like 30 mins, then it went away. A day or two later had a bad headache but took some ibuprofen. Also the dosage was 150 mg. Took it in the afternoon like around 3pm. Felt relief around 5pm. Easy to use, not messy like the cream, actually will work…"

For Candida Urinary Tract Infection "Two months ago I started feeling burns on my penis so I didn't take it seriously. But these days it became so bad that I couldn't sleep then I searched for it on google today. I bought Diflucan and its been 4 hours and I have no burning or itching just a few wounds"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Glad to hear my 150mg one-time dose can cause fatigue, tachycardia, and headache as well as indigestion and heartburn. A lot of vague symptoms like shaking hands, burping, cold extremities too. I thought I had COVID again! I did drink alcohol on day 6 after taking it, which worsened my side effects severely. Now I know I only need to wait and drink a lot of ginger tea and water and keep my meals simple. This site helped me a lot. Don't drink alcohol with this, you'll regret it. No yeast infection, but now I feel sick three days after alcohol. It started with throbbing in my liver, then evolved 24 hours later into many minor, annoying symptoms."
