Diflucan for a Yeast Infection During Pregnancy?
July 17th, 2009 by admin | Filed in Yeast Infection Treatments
I was on antibiotics for an upper respiratory infection, and that gave me a yeast infection. I was prescribed Diflucan to treat the yeast infection. I took it two days ago and just found out yesterday that I am pregnant. I am terrified that something will happen. Has anyone else ever taken Diflucan while in the early stages of pregnancy?

Yea I have! The doctors describe it to you. They gave it to me when I was 16 weeks. I was pron to getting yeast infections my whole pregnancy. They gave it to me every time and my baby boy is fine=)
I have had 7 pregnancies and yeast infections were a problem each time I’d finished anti-biotics too so I sympathise!
I know that I was prescribed stuff for it but can’t remember if it was Diflucan or not.
It’s important to get the right kind of treatment, especially this early on, so in the morning phone your doctors and ask the receptionist to ask the doctor’s advise and call you back. If it’s ok to continue, it won’t have mattered that you waited a short while, but , on the other hand, if you need the prescription changing then it’s also not too long to wait without taking anything in the meantime either.
Good luck!
Its not recommended. It is a pregnancy category C which just means it hasn’t been studied in pregnancy. You can get more info at fda.gov just search for pregnancy category ratings. If you took it more than 48 hours ago with no rash or breathing trouble, at this point you should be fine.
