Diflucan (fluconazole) is an
antifungal agent used to treat infections in certain areas of
the body caused by yeast and yeast-like organisms.
HOW TO USE: This medication works best
when the amount of medicine in your body is kept at a constant
level. Do this by taking the medication at evenly spaced
intervals. Take as directed since different conditions require
different methods of use. This drug is usually taken once
daily. Another dosing method involves taking the drug for one
week per month until treatment is completed. Continue to take
this medication until the full prescribed amount is finished
even if symptoms disappear after a few days. Stopping the
medication too early may allow the yeast to continue to grow
resulting in a relapse of the infection.
SIDE EFFECTS: This medication may
cause stomach upset, loss of appetite, altered taste, diarrhea,
nausea, headache or dizziness during the first few days as your
body adjusts to the medication. If these symptoms persist or
become severe, inform your doctor. In the unlikely event you
have an allergic reaction to this drug, seek immediate medical
attention. Symptoms of an allergic reaction include: rash,
itching, swelling, dizziness, trouble breathing. If you notice
other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or
pharmacist.
PRECAUTIONS: Tell your doctor your
medical history, especially of: liver disease, kidney disease,
any drug allergies. This medication should be used only when
clearly needed during pregnancy. Discuss the risks and benefits
with your doctor. Fluconazole is excreted into breast milk. The
manufacturer of this drug recommends it not be used while
breast-feeding. Consult your doctor before you breast-feed.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Tell your doctor or
pharmacist of all prescription and nonprescription drugs you
may use, especially of: astemizole, cisapride, cimetidine, oral
contraceptives, cyclosporine, oral antidiabetic drugs,
hydrochlorothiazide, phenytoin, rifampin, rifabutin, certain
benzodiazepines (e.g., alprazolam, triazolam), tacrolimus,
terfenadine, theophylline, warfarin, zidovudine. Do not start
or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval.
OVERDOSE: If overdose is suspected,
contact your local poison control center or emergency room
immediately. Symptoms of overdose may include hallucinations
and changes in behavior.
NOTES: This medication has been
prescribed for your current condition only. Do not use it later
for another infection or give it to someone else. A different
medicine may be needed.
MISSED DOSE: If you miss a dose, take
it as soon as remembered. If it is almost time for the next
dose, take the scheduled dose only. Do not "double-up" the dose
to catch up.
STORAGE: Store at room temperature
away from moisture and sunlight. Do not store in the
bathroom.
