OVERDOSEThere has been one reported case of overdosage with fluconazole. A 42-year-old patient infected with human immunodeficiency virus developed hallucinations and exhibited paranoid behavior after reportedly ingesting 8200 mg of fluconazole. The patient was admitted to the hospital, and his condition resolved within 48 hours. In the event of overdose, symptomatic treatment (with supportive measures and gastric lavage if clinically indicated) should be instituted. Fluconazole is largely excreted in urine. A three hour hemodialysis session decreases plasma levels by approximately 50%. In mice and rats receiving very high doses of fluconazole, clinical effects in both species included decreased motility and respiration, ptosis, lacrimation, salivation, urinary incontinence, loss of righting reflex and cyanosis; death was sometimes preceded by clonic convulsions. CONTRAINDICATIONS Fluconazole is contraindicated in patients who have
shown hypersensitivity to fluconazole or to any of its excipients. There
is no information regarding cross hypersensitivity between fluconazole
and other azole antifungal agents. Caution should be used in prescribing
fluconazole to patients with hypersensitivity to other azoles.
