Do multiple doeses of diflucan (used to treat yeast infections) make birth control pills less effective?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't know which: oral contraceptive you are referring to. Diflucan can impact effectiveness of some oral contraceptives which may lead to recommendations to use a back up form of birth control.
