Does Intake Of Diflucan Help In Curing Pink Eye?
Question: Will difluc 100 milligrams help pink eye
Brief Answer:
Not really
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Difluc 100mg is a Flucanazole preparation used to treat yeast and fungal infections. Without knowing whether the pink eye was caused by fungus it is not good to take Difluc.
I suggest you to take Voltaren 0.1% Diclofenac Ophthalmic solution one drop every 4 hours for one day for the pink eye or even cold water washing will help.
Pink eye can be caused by virus, bacteria, dust, fungal, allergy. All these of them. So it is important to determine the cause of it.
If the Voltaren does not help in a day or two and if you have worsening symptoms or any other associated symptoms like cold, cough, sinus etc please visit a local doctor.
Thank you for the query.
