Fluka 150 MG Description
Fluka 150 capsule is an antifungal medicine. It is used to treat fungal infections of the skin, blood, urinary tract, mouth, throat and other parts of the body. It contains fluconazole as its active ingredient. Fluconazole acts by preventing the growth of the fungal cell wall, thus resulting in fungal cell death.
Fluka 150 capsules should not be used by pregnant or nursing women. It should be taken as directed by the doctor and in doses and duration as prescribed. You can take this medicine with meals to avoid stomach upset.
Always complete the entire course of the treatment, even if you start feeling better. Stopping the treatment in between can result in incomplete removal of the infection. Which increases the risk of re-infection. Before starting the treatment with Fluka 150 capsule, inform the doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding and about your detailed medical history.
