Always consult your doctor before starting Diflucan, especially if you have other health conditions.
- Liver Function: Diflucan can affect your liver. Regular liver function tests are often recommended, particularly with prolonged use. Report any signs of liver problems, such as jaundice (yellowing of skin or eyes), dark urine, or unusual fatigue, to your doctor immediately. Drug Interactions: Diflucan interacts with several medications. Provide your doctor with a complete list of all medications, supplements, and herbal remedies you are taking to avoid potential interactions. This includes prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, and even certain food supplements. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Diflucan should only be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding if the benefits clearly outweigh the potential risks. Discuss this extensively with your healthcare provider to weigh the potential impact on your baby. Allergic Reactions: Some individuals experience allergic reactions to Diflucan. Watch for symptoms such as rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing. Seek immediate medical attention if an allergic reaction occurs. QT Prolongation: Diflucan may prolong the QT interval of the heart, increasing the risk of heart rhythm problems. This is more likely in individuals with pre-existing heart conditions. Discuss this risk with your physician if you have any heart issues.
Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully regarding dosage and duration of treatment. Do not stop taking Diflucan without consulting your doctor, even if your symptoms improve. Incomplete treatment can lead to recurrence of the infection and potential development of drug resistance.
Keep Diflucan out of reach of children. Store Diflucan as directed on the label. Inform your doctor about any changes in your health during treatment.
