A member asked:
Every time i take diflucan it takes longer to work. can my body become resistant to it and what are my options to clear it sooner?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Resistant yeast?: People do not become resistant to antibiotics. However, the germs causing infection can become resistant, and fluconazole (Diflucan) or other "azole" drugs are not active against some strains of yeast. If you haven't done so already, see your doctor to confirm that yeast is still the problem and discuss alternative treatments. Good luck!
