Description
Flucolab 150mg Tablet is an antifungal medication used to treat a variety of fungal infections in different parts of the body, including the mouth, throat, vagina, and nails (fingernails and toenails). It works by targeting the cell membrane of the fungus, effectively killing the fungi and preventing further growth, which helps in the treatment of infections.
SALT COMPOSITION:
- Fluconazole (150mg)
Uses of Flucolab Tablet:
- Treatment of Fungal Infections
Flucol is commonly prescribed to treat fungal infections, including:- Oral and throat infections (e.g., oral thrush)
- Vaginal yeast infections (candidiasis)
- Fungal infections of the skin, nails, and other parts of the body
How Flucol Tablet Works:
Flucol 150mg Tablet works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of the fungal cell membrane. Without ergosterol, the cell membrane becomes damaged, and the fungus is killed, stopping the infection from spreading.
Side Effects of Flucolab Tablet:
Most side effects of Flucol are temporary and should go away as your body adjusts to the medication. Common side effects include:
- Headache
- Nausea
- Stomach pain
- Diarrhea
- Rash

More serious side effects (though rare) may include liver enzyme abnormalities (increased alanine aminotransferase or aspartate aminotransferase), signs of allergic reactions, or dizziness. If you experience swelling of the lips, throat, or face, difficulty swallowing or breathing, or severe dizziness, stop taking the medication immediately and seek medical attention.
How to Maximize the Benefits:
- Complete the prescribed treatment: Even if symptoms improve, continue taking the full course to ensure the infection is completely cleared.
- Do not skip doses: If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for your next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one.
- Avoid antacids: Do not take antacids within 1 hour before or 2 hours after taking Flucol as they may affect the absorption of the drug.
