If you have a yeast infection, your doctor may prescribe a medicine to treat the yeast infection. A medicine called Diflucan (fluconazole) is available in the market to treat the yeast infection, or to treat a fungal infection.
Diflucan is a combination of two medicines called fluconazole and Diflucan. Fluconazole belongs to a group of medicines called antifungals. It is used for the treatment of vaginal yeast infections, or a fungal infection caused by fungus.
Diflucan works by blocking the action of an enzyme called ergosterol, which is responsible for breaking down the drug. As a result, it prevents the fungi from multiplying in the body.
Fluconazole works by blocking the action of an enzyme called squalene epoxidase (SEX) present in the vagina and bladder.
The most commonly reported side effects of Diflucan include upset stomach, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, lightheadedness, itching, redness of the skin, swelling, and pain in the legs or stomach.
Less common side effects include headache, nausea, skin rash, vaginal yeast infections, and vaginal yeast infections.
