Diflucan 150 Mg 1Caps

Diflucan 150 Mg 1Caps is an antifungal medication used to treat various fungal infections. It belongs to the class of antifungal drugs and contains the active ingredient fluconazole (FLUCONAZOLE). It is commonly used to treat candidiasis and other fungal infections.

Fluconazole (FLUCONAZOLE) works by inhibiting a specific enzyme in fungi known as 14-alpha-sterol demethylase, leading to a reduction in the production of ergosterol, an essential component of the fungal cell membrane. This inhibition weakens fungal cells, resulting in their death. Fluconazole shows high efficacy against a variety of fungi, including Candida albicans, and is used in cases of complicated fungal infections.
