Canditral SB 65 Capsule contains itraconazole (65 mg) which acts on your body in the following ways:

• Inhibits Ergosterol Synthesis: Itraconazole works by blocking an enzyme in fungi called cytochrome P450 14α-demethylase. This enzyme is crucial in converting a substance called lanosterol into ergosterol, which forms a key part of the fungal cell membrane.

• Weakens Fungal Cell Membrane: When ergosterol synthesis is inhibited by itraconazole, the fungal cell membrane accumulates abnormal substances and loses its normal structure and function. This makes the fungal cell more prone to damage and leakage eventually leading to the death of the fungus.

• Stops Fungal Growth: By killing existing fungi and preventing new ones from growing, itraconazole effectively manages various types of fungal infections.

• Store Canditral SB 65 Capsule in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight.

• The ideal storage temperature is 25°C; avoid extreme temperatures as it may affect the medicine.

• Ensure it is kept out of reach and sight of children.

• Always check the expiry date and use the medicine before it expires.

• If you're managing fungal infections with Canditral SB 65 Capsule, maintain good hygiene to prevent spreading the infection. This includes washing your hands regularly and keeping your skin clean and dry.

• Ensure a balanced diet with sufficient protein intake. Protein can help repair skin cells and boost your immune system to fight off fungal infections better.
