Question 2

Accepted Answer

Diflucan (fluconazole) takes days: Diflucan (fluconazole) takes a few days to treat a more stubborn yeast infection.  Itching indicates that the yeast is deep enough to create enough inflammation to trigger nerve endings.  So if after a week, the itching does not go away, i usually recommend using an OTC antifungal cream externally to finish the job.  If that does not help, see your GYN.
