Fungotek

Product Description

Fungotek is an antifungal medication containing Terbinafine Hydrochloride as its active ingredient. This powerful antifungal agent is commonly formulated as oral tablets and is clinically proven to treat various fungal infections effectively.

Uses

Fungotek is indicated for the treatment of multiple fungal infections including dermatophytoses (ringworm), tinea pedis (athlete’s foot), tinea cruris (jock itch), onychomycosis (fungal nail infections), and certain tinea capitis (scalp infections).

How to Use

Take Fungotek tablets orally with a full glass of water. The medication may be administered with or without food, typically once daily or as prescribed by your physician. For optimal therapeutic outcomes, maintain consistent dosing intervals.

How It Works

Fungotek exerts its antifungal effect by inhibiting squalene epoxidase, a key enzyme in fungal ergosterol biosynthesis. This action disrupts fungal cell membrane formation, causing accumulation of toxic squalene within fungal cells, ultimately leading to fungal cell death and resolution of infection.

Benefits

Fungotek offers broad-spectrum antifungal activity with high clinical efficacy. It provides symptomatic relief while eradicating the causative fungal pathogens. Complete adherence to the prescribed treatment regimen significantly reduces the likelihood of infection recurrence.

Common Side Effects

The most frequently reported adverse effects include gastrointestinal disturbances (nausea, abdominal discomfort, diarrhea), transient taste disturbances (dysgeusia), and headache. Persistent or worsening symptoms should be reported to your healthcare professional immediately.

Dosage and Administration

The therapeutic regimen (dosage and duration) is determined by infection type, severity, patient health status, and treatment response. Complete the full prescribed course even if symptoms resolve prematurely to ensure complete eradication of infection.

Warnings

Prior to initiating therapy, disclose any history of hepatic impairment or hypersensitivity reactions. Regular hepatic function monitoring may be required during treatment. Use during pregnancy or lactation requires careful risk-benefit assessment and medical supervision.

Storage

Maintain Fungotek tablets at controlled room temperature (15-30°C) in their original packaging, protected from light and humidity. Avoid bathroom storage. Keep all medications out of reach of children and pets. Properly dispose of expired or unused medication.
