Scientific Evidence:

Fluconazole, the active ingredient in Diflucan, works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a key component of fungal cell membranes. This disrupts the fungal cell structure, leading to cell death and clearance of the infection. Studies have shown fluconazole to be effective in treating various fungal infections with a favorable safety profile.

Diflucan is generally well-tolerated, but common side effects may include nausea, headache, and abdominal pain. It is important to complete the full course of treatment as prescribed, even if symptoms improve before the medication is finished.
