A member asked:
Does the diflucan (fluconazole) (yeast infection pill) affect birth control pills?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diflucan (fluconazole): Yes - it is a potent inhibitor of CYP 2C9. This can affect the levels of the birth control pill you use and this will ultimately affect ovulation. Please talk to your GYN he should be advising you.
