For Vaginal Yeast Infection "Had the odd yeast infection, usually after antibiotics or too much beer and sugar. Always taken an oral pill, and easily sorted. In NZ, chemist gave me fluconazole. A few hours after taking it, appetite went, 5 hrs, severe nausea, 10 hrs I woke up and vomited the most disgusting, chemical bile. Spent the next day feeling like I'd been hit by a train. All my joints and limbs were aching, bad headache, no energy at all. Started feeling better the next day as nausea was subsiding, then on day 4 I started bleeding with uterus pain. Fresh blood as period wasn't for another 2 weeks. Day 5, bleeding, still itchy, still sore. Rubbish!!"

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "I’m very prone to UTIs and yeast infections. The doc prescribed the antibiotics to get rid of one, and the other follows! So, I feel horrid until I am rested for the UTI, then worse while the antibiotics are running their course, and OMG here it comes! Itchy, nasty discharge! This time it is bad! I took two different antibiotics in a month. So this mega yeast is killing me!"

Fluconazole for Vaginal Yeast Infection "After taking one dose of Diflucan, I developed a severe rash, it looked like sunburn on my chest, upper arms, stomach, and back. It was extremely itchy. I’m assuming this is an allergic reaction."

For Vaginal Yeast Infection "It works well. Although it takes longer to take effect initially than 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."
