Important Note
The following information is intended to supplement, not substitute for,
the expertise and judgment of your physician, pharmacist or other healthcare
professional. It should not be construed to indicate that use of the drug
is safe, appropriate, or effective for you. Consult your healthcare professional
before using this drug.
Uses
This medication 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,

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.
