Flucan (Fluconazole) - Antifungal Medication for Fungal Infections

Flucan (fluconazole) is an antifungal medication used to treat fungal infections, such as vaginal yeast infections, oral thrush, and skin infections. It works by preventing the growth of fungi and yeast.

Flucan is available in both tablet and capsule form and is usually taken once daily. It's important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider and complete the full course of treatment to ensure that the infection is fully cleared.

Common side effects of flucan include nausea, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. More serious side effects can include allergic reactions, liver damage, and increased risk of heart problems. It's important to discuss any concerns or pre-existing medical conditions with your healthcare provider before taking flucan.

Flucan is not recommended for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, as its safety in these situations has not been well studied. Additionally, flucan may interact with other medications, such as warfarin and cyclosporine, so it's important to inform your healthcare provider of any medications you are currently taking.
