A member asked:
The dr. i saw today confirmed that i have a vaginal yeast infection. she wrote a script for 100mg of diflucan (fluconazole) for 14 days. isn't this excessive?

Yeast infection: Most women only need one dose of oral Diflucan, (fluconazole) although women with more complicated infections (such as those with underlying medical problems, recurrent yeast infections, or severe signs and symptoms) may require a second and third dose 3 and 6 days after the first dose.

One for one day: That is unusually long. Usual dose is once. Fourteen days would be very very unusual
