Brief Answer:
Discontinue

Detailed Answer:
Dear Ma'am, I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns.. There is no interaction between fluconazol and the medications you are taking but it is a common side effect of fluconazol to cause rashes and skin irritation in 10% of patients using it. I would recommend that you discontinue fluconazol and replace it with another class of antifungals such as Terbinafine ( Lamisil)..
Also you need to keep close monitor of your blood glucose level as armothyroid tend to decrease the effect of metformin on controlling blood glucose level.
BPC is basically formed of Amlodipine, which is a calcium channel blocker which acts to decrease the blood pressure in patients with hypertension and increase blood flow to the heart in patients with cardiac insufficiency .. As for gastrocalm, there is no problem in using it along with your medications.. I hope I answered your question.
