Can taking fluconazole for yeast overgrowth negatively impact milk
supply? I am working with a client who has experienced a sudden
reduction in supply since starting this drug. If fluconazole reduces
supply, can you explain why?

Presuming that there is thrush if fluconazole is being given and thrush
itself can irritate the milk ducts, inflame them, slow flow and thus slow
production. So it is likely the thrush condition, not the drug, that is causing the
supply reduction. It typically bounces back quite well once the thrush is
under control.
