Freaquent/painful urination after starting Diflucan

[Guest guest]

Hi all,My son's approximately 4 years old and circa 14 kg/31 pounds. He has an autism diagnosis. We've had him on a GF/CF diet since February with some other dietary limitations. We're also giving him omega-3 and basic multivitamins. He takes magnesium flakes baths.We started Diflucan (50 mg twice a day) yesterday. He's had frequent urinating before, but is now urinating very often. Sometimes he's also crying when he has to go. In addition to this, he had an "accident" yesterday, while in the car for about an hour. This is not typical for him, eventhough he had been drinking quite a lot of water. I'm wondering whether this is die off (already??) or a negative reaction to the drug. Should we try decreasing the dose, or just wait a while to see how we go?

Any input would be highly appreciated.

In our house, die-off can definitely cause more frequent urination, but it has

never caused painful urination. If he does seem to be having pain, you may want

to have a urine culture done to rule out a urinary tract infection.

I am not an expert , but - also think you have to test urinary infection first of all.If there is no problem there , could it be an oxalates dumping ??My daughter also haver more urination frecuency when she is with high detox level ( more frecuency and more amount of urine ) but it doesnt hurt her . But oxalates dumping could be a little unconfortable .I hope your son get better as soon as possible.IsabelEnviado desde mi BlackBerry® de VodafoneSender: mb12valtrex Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2011 14:43:22 -0000To: <mb12valtrex >ReplyTo: mb12valtrex Subject: Re: Freaquent/painful urination after starting Diflucan In our house, die-off can definitely cause more frequent urination, but it has never caused painful urination.
