Itraconazole treats certain infections caused by fungi and yeasts. Depending on the diagnosis, it may be prescribed for:
Ringworm: Fungal infections affecting the skin.
Athlete's foot: Fungal infections between the toes or on the feet.
Jock itch: Fungal infections of the groin.
Nail infections: Fungal infections of the fingernails or toenails.
Pityriasis versicolor: A yeast infection that causes discoloured skin patches.
Certain deeper fungal infections: Including some infections affecting the lungs or other organs.
Itraconazole blocks the production of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes. Without sufficient ergosterol, fungal cells cannot maintain their membranes properly, which inhibits their growth.
Conventional itraconazole capsules are generally taken immediately after a full meal and swallowed whole.
The correct dose and treatment duration depend on the infection, its severity, your medical history and other medicines you take. Do not determine your dose from the package strength alone.
Itraconazole capsules and oral solution are not interchangeable because their absorption differs.
