? Dosage: what dose are you taking? At any rate, you need to take the right dose everyday for at least 2 weeks, unless contraindicated, to prevent relapses

Fluconazole: For thrush, fluconazole should taken daily as once a day dose. Good luck

Reassessment Needed: If you've taken a drug for 6 weeks w/out any sign of relief, you need to see your doctor again to assess whether or not the treatment is really doing anything for you. 6 weeks seems excessive and you may need a different medication.
