CompositionVoritek 200 Tablet is an antifungal medicine used to treat severe fungal infections such as invasive aspergillosis and candidaemia, particularly in people with a weakened immune system. It contains voriconazole and is also used for certain infections of the food pipe (oesophagus) and skin caused by resistant fungi.
Voriconazole works by stopping the growth of the fungus causing the infection. Take this tablet as prescribed, at least one hour before or after a meal, swallowed whole with water. Continue the full course of treatment as directed by your doctor, even if you begin to feel better, to help ensure the infection clears completely.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and use sun protection, as this medicine can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Maintain good hygiene and inform your doctor promptly if you notice new skin changes or unusual visual disturbances during treatment.
Before starting this medicine, tell your doctor if you have any liver problems, an irregular heart rhythm, or are taking other medicines, as voriconazole can interact with several medicines. Report any vision changes, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or severe skin reactions to your doctor immediately. This medicine is not recommended during pregnancy.
