Frequently Asked Questions 

How does Diflucan work? 

This oral antifungal drug works by stopping the growth of certain fungi. It inhibits the enzyme that converts lanosterol to ergosterol. The loss of normal sterols leads to 14-a-methyl sterol accumulation in fungi and could be responsible for the fungistatic mechanism.

How long should it take for Diflucan to work? 

Diflucan (fluconazole) typically takes 4 hours to work. However, the maximum effect of the drug may take 16 hours after it has been administered. These depend on various factors, especially the overall medical condition.

Can you drink alcohol on Diflucan? 

Diflucan and alcohol have no interactions. Alcohol does not affect the efficacy of this drug. However, it can worsen some of the common side effects, such as headache, dizziness, nausea, and vomiting.
