Description
Itranox 200 Capsule is a powerful oral antifungal medication used to treat severe and persistent fungal infections. Its active ingredient, Itraconazole (200 mg), belongs to the triazole class of antifungals and works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a critical component of fungal cell membranes. This action weakens the fungal cells, stopping their growth and aiding the body in eliminating the infection.
Itraconazole 200 mg is commonly prescribed for systemic fungal infections such as aspergillosis, histoplasmosis, and candidiasis, as well as for stubborn skin, nail, and hair fungal infections. The higher dosage ensures effective treatment for more resistant or extensive infections.
