Fluconazole allergy: Fluconazole can cause allergic drug rash, including hives. It could start any time from a few minutes arter taking it to a couple of days later. If the hives beyond 2-3 days, probably fluconazole wasn't the cause. However, if in doubt or any questions, check with the doctor or clinic where fluconazole was prescribed.
