Itraconol 200 Capsule 10 contains itraconazole (200 mg), which acts on the body through the following mechanisms:

• Inhibition of ergosterol synthesis: Itraconazole blocks an enzyme responsible for producing ergosterol, a crucial component of the fungal cell membrane.
• Disruption of the fungal cell membrane: Itraconazole inhibits ergosterol synthesis, disrupting the formation of the fungal cell membrane. This change affects membrane-associated metabolic processes.
• Leakage of cellular components: The disrupted cell membrane becomes permeable, leading to leakage of cellular components.
• Inhibition of fungal cell growth and reproduction: As a result of altered cellular structure and function, the growth and reproduction of the fungi is inhibited.
• Fungal cell death: Ultimately, these activities lead to the death of the fungal cells, helping manage the infection effectively.

• Store Itraconol 200 Capsule 10 at room temperature in a cool, dry place.
• Keep it protected from direct sunlight, and excessive heat and moisture.
• Keep it out of the reach of children.
• Always check the expiration date before use.

• If you're managing fungal infections with Itraconol 200 Capsule 10, maintain a clean and dry body environment. Fungi thrive in moist areas, so regular bathing and drying yourself properly can help manage symptoms.
