Fluconazole Tablets 100 mg are primarily used to treat and prevent fungal infections, including those caused by Candida species. These infections can manifest as vaginal yeast infections, thrush (oral candidiasis), and systemic fungal infections affecting internal organs. The medication works by inhibiting the growth and reproduction of fungi, leading to effective symptom relief and infection control. It is important to use the medication as directed by a healthcare provider to ensure successful treatment while minimizing side effects.

Details and Features:
Active Ingredient: Each tablet contains 100 mg of fluconazole, an azole antifungal that works by disrupting the synthesis of the fungal cell membrane.
Count: Available in a pack of 30, providing a comprehensive course for treating fungal infections.
Formulation: Carefully crafted to ensure maximum absorption and effectiveness, with a formulation that upholds Glenmark's standards of quality.
Versatile Use: Effective against a range of fungal infections including those affecting the skin, throat, mouth, and other parts of the body.
Film-Coated Tablets: Designed for ease of swallowing and to promote optimal absorption in the gastrointestinal tract.
Mechanism of Action:
Fluconazole is a triazole antifungal agent that works by inhibiting the enzyme 14α-demethylase. This enzyme is crucial in converting lanosterol to ergosterol, an essential component of the fungal cell membrane. By blocking the production of ergosterol, fluconazole compromises the structural integrity of the fungal cell membrane, leading to cell lysis and ultimately the death of the fungal cell, effectively treating and clearing the infection.
Directions:
1. Dosage: Follow your healthcare provider’s prescribed dosage regimen, which is usually based on the type of infection being treated.
2. Administration: Take orally with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water.
3. Consistent Timing: For best results, take your dose at the same time every day to maintain even levels of medication in your bloodstream.
4. Course Completion: Complete the entire course as prescribed, even if symptoms improve early on, to prevent recurrence of infection.
Warnings:
-
Hypersensitivity: Do not use Fluconazole if you have a known allergy to it or similar azole antifungals.
-
Drug Interactions: Inform your healthcare provider of all other medications you are taking, as fluconazole can interact with a variety of drugs, potentially altering its effectiveness or increasing side effects.
-
Liver Health: Caution is advised for patients with pre-existing liver conditions; periodic monitoring may be necessary.
-
Pregnancy and Nursing: Consult your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, as fluconazole can pass into breast milk.
-
QT Prolongation: Use with caution in individuals with conditions that prolong QT interval on ECG or in those taking other medications that may affect cardiac rhythm.
Side Effects:
Common side effects include headache, nausea, stomach pain, diarrhea, dizziness, and altered liver function tests. Most side effects are mild and resolve over time. However, if you experience serious side effects such as signs of liver dysfunction, severe skin rashes, or heart rhythm disturbances, seek medical attention immediately.
