<< i have a client who is sensitive to everything, and is having the diarrhea/nausea reaction to the initial dose of fluconazole. has anyone seen these symptoms improve while taking this? >> Dr. Crook's book THE YEAST CONNECTION AND THE WOMAN talks about when yeast is dying it gives off toxins that can make you sick on your stomach and feel like the flu. This maybe why some have these side effects. Stomach cramps and nausea and diarrhea are known side effects of diflucan. If the side effects are due to the yeast dying, then the side effects will lessen over time due to less and less yeast left to kill. I've not have mothers become sick on diflucan, but have had some reports of baby's being quiet upset or fussy when on diflucan for thrush.
