Fluconazole and ETOH: Diflucan (fluconazole) is a powerful drug and its effect will remain in the body for 5-7 days. It is better to abstain from drinking alcohol at least for 5 days. The best option is to avoid alcohol for a week.

Diflucan (fluconazole) & Alcohol: Diflucan (fluconazole) stays in our system for 5-7 days then you better avoid alcohol for up to a week after your last dose otherwise you would feel dizzy, nauseated. Also Alcohol decreases Diflucan (fluconazole) effectiveness. Hope this helps.
