Darillyn, There are several posts on Diflucan.  You could do a search.  But
I happen to have printed some today so I will pass them off to you.

On March 19 1996 there are two excellent posts, one by Tom Hale and one by
Anne Eglash.

Then on Sept 20 1996 Patricia Young has an excellent post.

These three posts speak of dosage.

Recently there was a post that told us that the AAP has now approved
Diflucan for breastfeeding mothers. I can't find that post.
