A member asked:

Is it safe to take nystatin or diflucan (fluconazole) with other medications?

Dr. Ziad Akl answered

Yes and No: Nystatin is not absorbed so yes you can take it with other meds. Diflucan (fluconazole) can interact with some meds. Need to be more specific.

A member asked:

Have a thrush infection. Prescribed 150 mg diflucan for 5 days, as the thrush didn't respond to nystatin. I take 1 mg alprazolam 2 x day, 6.25 mg carvedilol 2x day. Both are on the serious interaction list but doc says to take them all. Dangerous?
