Itraconazole Capsules 100 mg, 30/Bottle – Ascend Laboratories (Rx)
Itraconazole is a powerful fungicidal drug belonging to the azole antifungal class. Itraconazole capsules 100 mg are prescribed for the treatment of various fungal infections. Itraconazole inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol, an integral element of fungal cell membranes, leading to cell death. Itraconazole is generally well tolerated, with a low incidence of adverse effects.
Clinical studies have shown that itraconazole capsules are effective in the treatment of a wide variety of fungal infections, including histoplasmosis, blastomycosis, aspergillosis, cryptococcosis, and candidiasis. Itraconazole has also been used to successfully treat visceral leishmaniasis, a potentially fatal parasitic disease.
