[So...] Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 So… Will flucanazole (difflucan) make WD worse? It’s an anyifungal for yeast infection. Please advise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[or...] Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I can't see why it would. Of course, people react to medications in different ways. I took it once during my taper and it didn't make things worse. And it cleared up my yeast . Hoe this helps, Katz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[So...] Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 Thank you! I’m just so worried now to take anything because who knows!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[or...] Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I get that. But maybe hearing others' positive experiences will be helpful. It was always helpful to me (even though we know everyone's different). Best to you! Katz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Go...] Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I have not had to use this during withdrawal but have in the past used the cream during withdrawal and did not have a problem. Using the cream may be a better option if you are concerned about a reaction since you are not actually ingesting it. Good luck in what you decide.

[or...] Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Oh! Sophie, I though you were referring to the cream. What Godsgirl said made me realize I need to clarify. I used the cream for my yeast infection and had no trouble. It comes with a nifty applicator and you just, well, administer it locally. Sorry if I misled you. I really can't see ingesting something for what is really just a localized problem. Apologies, Katz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[So...] Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 No worries!! I went to the clinic and was tested for yeast and it was negative anyway… I need to stop freaking out…. Thanks for the replies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Go...] Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 No worries!! I went to the clinic and was tested for yeast and it was negative anyway… I need to stop freaking out…. Thanks for the replies I'm glad it was not an infection. I can tell you that I fel like I have an infection often but to not. It definitely has something to do with the withdrawal. I have been using Aquphor in the vaginal area to relieve it and it really seems to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[sq...] Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 I'd stick with using a topical preparation in the future for yeast and not risk med interaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
