Salt Composition:
Itraconazole (100mg)
Description:
Candiforce 100mg Capsule contains itraconazole, an antifungal medication belonging to the triazole class. Itraconazole works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a crucial component of fungal cell membranes. This disruption leads to increased permeability and leakage of cellular contents, ultimately causing fungal cell death or inhibiting their growth.
Candiforce 100mg is used to treat a variety of fungal infections, including skin and nail infections (such as tinea pedis, tinea cruris, and onychomycosis), yeast infections (like oral or esophageal candidiasis), and systemic fungal infections (such as aspergillosis and histoplasmosis). The dosage and duration of treatment depend on the type and severity of the fungal infection.
Candiforce capsules are usually taken orally, and absorption is generally better when taken with a full meal, especially a fatty meal. Common side effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain), headache, and rash. Itraconazole can interact with several other medications, so it is important to inform the prescribing doctor about all other drugs being taken.
