Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 Hi Barb, Nystatin works where it goes through your digestive tract, but Diflucan works systemically to kill fungal infections throughout your body. From what I've read, I wouldn't use either long term. Barth www.presenting.net/sbs/sbs.html SUBMIT YOUR DOCTOR: www.presenting.net/sbs/molddoctors.html --- Copyright 2011.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2011 Report Share Posted March 8, 2011 I've taken both diflucan and sporanox and for me diflucan works the best. I've only been taking D for about a month hopefully I'll be able to stop taking it soon. > > Does anyone know if you get used to Difflucan and it stops working? Probably but thought I'd ask.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 I had systemic Candida per blood test results about five years ago and I think it leaves 'seeds' behind, (my idea), because it seems I develop symptoms easily back; so taking long term antibiotics will be a problem but I do have to take them so the dilema. Anyway, I've done wonderfully previously on Difflucan but I'm beginning to not feel any different after I take it. I used to feel better after my dose, now I feel the same, so I'm afraid it's not working any more and not sure what I will do through the rest of my course of antiB's. I think I'll try something otc like Candigone for awhile and if that doesn't work, ask my doc to switch me to Nystatin. Maybe if I keep it down in gi tract, my body can take care of the rest. > > Nystatin works where it goes through your digestive tract, but Diflucan > works systemically to kill fungal infections throughout your body. > From what I've read, I wouldn't use either long term. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
