A member asked:
I have no other present health conditions except for persistent yeast infection (candidas glabrata). does long term fluconazole consumption affects my health? is it bad in any way?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Candida glabrata can be resistent to fluconazole and may need other antifungals or supressive regimen. CDC suggests 600 mg boric acid in a gelatin capsule vaginally daily for 3 weeks. Would discuss this with a gyn. https://www.healthline.com/health/candida-glabrata https://www.cdc.gov/std/treatment-guidelines/candidiasis.htm
