User Reviews for fluconazole oral

I have had to go through treatment twice in 2 years for disseminated coccidioidomycosis (valley fever) and both times have taken 200mg 2 x day orally of fluconazole over periods of weeks to months. I have to rate the minimal side effects of some nausea adn drowsiness the first week or so as preferrable to the misery of the coccidioidomycosis!

I developed a fungus infection in my mouth and throat due to the steroid inhaler I was using for my athsma/bronchitis. Fluconazole cleared up the fungus, but the PAIN in my stomach was so unbearable after 2-3 days that I quit taking it. I have been extremely bloated (as in I look like I'm 6 months pregnant!) and did I mention the PAIN in my stomach? It's been 24 hours since I stopped taking Fluconazole, and no relief yet. I will deal with the fungus with time and Listerine. I will NOT take Fluconazole ever again.Read More Read Less

I was on this medicine for 3 months and the Valley Fever returned, my doctor says I'll most likely be on it for the next 12 months or more, and since my Pharmacy, Bashas has put it on their generic savings program, it only cost $3.99 per month, compared to before I was paying $90.00 a month.

Took 400mg x day, both pills at night since it made very very drowsy and gave me 'brain fog'. Frequent nose bleeds, dry skin, lost my eyelashes and alot of hair on my head. Had nausea like a block of sour milk in my stomach hours after taking it. After a few weeks I developed muscle cramps and horrific pain in hip joints at night. These went away after I discontinued the medication. That being said, it suppressed the Cocci in my body so my titers are now negative, and thus I believe it to be effective (in my case).Read More Read Less

this is the 4th time using this for the SAME infection and it hasnt helped yet, this time im taking one a day for 10 days,im on day 5 and still no relief

The medication was suppose to clear up my infection within 48 hours. My doctor gave me 3 pills and I just took the 2nd today and have no sign of relief.

have had;camdida * albilans & also strerto -coccis viridans... in my blood stream . on this meds for 20 daysnow how long does it taketo get rid of it? also have had streptoccal pnuemonia at same time. was hospitalized for 3 days is this the normal treatment?

Have used Fluconazole in the past with no problem. The last two times, I have developed swelling of lip/nose with "fever blisters". This time within 2 hours of taking the med, removing the shadow of doubt from last episode. I have three pharmacy info papers on the med and only one mentioned poss side effect of 'blisters'.

worked great seen result with in the 24 hour time

After a bout with Bronchial Pnuemonia, and asthma, the antibiotics created a raging yeast infection. My doctor prescribed Fluconazole....and within a day I was a lot better. By the 2nd day I was relieved. Back at work and symptoms gone in 3 days.
