Minimal interaction: Fluconazole is quite long lasting, 4-5 days before gone. It can slightly elevate blood levels of atorvastatin, but usually without symptoms unless you are unusually sensitive. If you have had muscle aching or abnormal blood tests from atorvastatin, check with your doctor before taking fluconazole. Otherwise I wouldn't worry about it.
