Diflucan Prescription

Diflucan is prescribed to treat fungal infections called candidiasis. These include:
- Fungal infections elsewhere in the body;
- Infections of the urinary tract;
- Peritonitis;
- Pneumonia;
- Throat infections;
- Vaginal infections;

Diflucan is also prescribed to guard against candidiasis in some people receiving bone marrow transplants, and is prescribed to treat meningitis caused by another type of fungus.

In addition, Diflucan is now being prescribed for fungal infections in kidney and liver transplant patients, and fungal infections in patients with AIDS.

Diflucan capsules, suspension and infusion all contain the active ingredient Diflucan, which is a type of drug called a triazole antifungal. Diflucan is also available without a brand name, ie as the generic drug. Diflucan is prescribed to treat infections with fungi and yeasts.

Diflucan kills the fungi that are causing an infection by interfering with their cell membranes. It works by stopping the fungi from producing a substance called ergosterol, which is an essential component of fungal cell membranes. The disruption in production of ergosterol causes holes to appear in the fungal cell membrane.

The cell membranes of fungi are vital for their survival. They keep unwanted substances from entering the cells and stop the contents of the cells from leaking out. As Diflucan causes holes to appear in the cell membranes, essential constituents of the fungal cells can leak out. This kills the fungi and treats the infection.

Diflucan is prescribed to treat a number of different types of fungal and yeast infections, particularly those caused by Candida or Cryptococcus species of fungi.

Diflucan can be taken by mouth or may be administered via a drip into a vein depending on the type and severity of the infection. The length of treatment will also depend on the type and severity of the infection, for example vaginal thrush can normally treated with a single dose by mouth, while some other infections may require six to eight weeks of treatment.
