Fluconazole.
Always follow the dosage instructions provided by your veterinarian. Do not stop administering this medication or change dosage without explicit instructions from a professional.

This is a tablet that is given by mouth in order to treat serious fungal infections.
Fluconazole should be given by mouth only as prescribed by your veterinarian. If you are unsure of how to use this medication correctly, always speak with your veterinarian.
Fluconazole alters the cell membrane around the offending fungus, which kills the fungus in order to resolve the infection.
Fungal infection can be tough to treat so this medication may take weeks to months to completely resolve your pet's infection. It may also take a few weeks to notice an improvement in your pet's symptoms, so please be patient.
Quick, easy and cheaper than the regular pharmacy. Will continue to order from Chewy. We get our dog’s food from Chewy as well.
My cat has had 3 bouts with valley fever with the first one almost taking his life. The form of medication was compounded and liquid. He didn't care much for the base it was mixed in and it was a struggle to get it down him.... chasing him often times with the last round. This time I tried the pill form for cats with a shooter style dispenser. I don't think he knew what hit him. The dispenser was in and out of his mouth so fast. The pill form is so much easier and according to the Vet, proven to be more effective. Chewy also delivered the medication two days before projected which I am grateful to begin this round as soon as possible.
Zephyr has been taking Fluconazole for about 5 months now and she is doing great so far!
