Description
Indications
Itraconazole capsules serve as a therapeutic remedy for fungal infections originating in the lungs with the potential to disseminate throughout the body. Itraconazole capsules are also employed to address fungal infections affecting the fingernails and toenails. Itraconazole belongs to a class of antifungal agents known as triazoles, and it functions by impeding the growth of fungi responsible for causing infections.
Uses and Dosage
Administer this medication orally, following a complete meal, in accordance with your doctor’s instructions, which typically entail taking it once or twice daily. Swallow the capsules whole.
Consume itraconazole either 2 hours prior to or 1 hour after ingesting antacids, as antacids may potentially diminish the absorption of this medication. If you have a reduced or absent stomach acid (achlorhydria) or are taking medications that reduce stomach acid (e.g., H2 blockers like ranitidine, proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole), take this medication with an acidic beverage, such as cola.
The prescribed dosage and duration of treatment are contingent upon your specific medical condition and how you respond to the treatment. Ensure strict adherence to your doctor’s prescription when taking this medication. Some conditions may necessitate a cyclic dosing regimen (twice daily for one week, followed by a three-week cessation of the medication).
For optimal effectiveness, administer this antifungal medication at consistent intervals. To aid in adherence, take this medication at the same time(s) each day. You may find it helpful to mark your calendar with reminders, especially if you are following a cyclic dosing schedule.
Continue taking this medication until you have completed the entire prescribed course, even if your symptoms resolve within a few days. Discontinuing the medication prematurely may lead to a recurrence of the infection.
It is important to note that the capsule, tablet, and solution formulations of this medication deliver varying amounts of the active ingredient and may be intended for different therapeutic purposes. Do not switch between different forms or brands of this drug without explicit direction from your doctor.
If your condition does not show signs of improvement or worsens, promptly inform your doctor.
