Consult your doctor before taking Diflucan, especially if you have liver problems or are taking other medications. Diflucan can interact with certain drugs, potentially reducing their effectiveness or increasing side effects.
Common side effects include headache, nausea, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. These usually are mild and temporary. However, report any persistent or worsening symptoms to your healthcare provider immediately.
Less common, but potentially serious side effects, involve liver damage. Symptoms might include jaundice (yellowing of skin or eyes), dark urine, or unusual fatigue. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience these.
Rare but severe allergic reactions can occur. Symptoms may range from skin rash to difficulty breathing or swelling of the face, lips, or tongue. If you experience an allergic reaction, stop taking Diflucan and get emergency help.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Diflucan may affect pregnancy or nursing. Discuss its use with your doctor before getting pregnant, during pregnancy, or while breastfeeding.
This information is not exhaustive. Always read the patient information leaflet provided with your medication and talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions or concerns about Diflucan or any potential side effects.
