Frequently asked questions about Itraconazole

Q. What is Cebitra 200mg Tablet used for?
Cebitra 200mg Tablet is used to treat fungal infections caused by Trichophyton spp., Microsporum spp., and Epidermophyton floccosum. The infections caused could be ringworm infection, infection of the feet, or infection in the groin and buttocks. This medicine also treats persistent infection of fingernails and toenails, persistent candida (yeast) infections of vagina or candida (yeast) infections of the mouth or throat in patients with lower disease resistance. It is also used in the treatment of cryptococcal infection and infections caused by Histoplasma, aspergillus, and Blastomyces.
Q. For how long do I need to take Cebitra 200mg Tablet?
The dose and length of treatment depends on the type and site of infection and your response to the treatment. For example, if you are taking Cebitra 200mg Tablet for athlete’s foot (fungal infection of the skin on the feet and between the toes), the dose may need to be taken for 30 days, on the other hand, if you are taking it for candidal infection of the vagina, the dose may span from 1 day to 3 days depending on the dosage advised by the doctor.
Q. I am taking Cebitra 200mg Tablet for nail infection but there does not seem to be any improvement. Can I stop taking it?
No, you should not stop taking Cebitra 200mg Tablet without completing the entire course because doing so may not completely cure the fungal infection. It usually takes about 6-9 months for nail lesions to disappear because after the medicine eliminates the fungus, the new nail takes several months to grow. Do not worry if you do not see any improvement during the treatment.
Q. Why has my doctor asked me to get blood tests done?
Your doctor is probably trying to monitor your liver’s functioning. Cebitra 200mg Tablet may cause serious liver damage. Therefore, if you develop loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, dark urine, or abdominal pain while taking Cebitra 200mg Tablet, you should tell your doctor immediately.
Q. Can I take antacid and Cebitra 200mg Tablet together?
Cebitra 200mg Tablet can be utilized by the body if there is sufficient acid in the stomach. Medicines for stomach ulcers, heartburn, or indigestion neutralize the acid produced by the stomach. Therefore, take antacids or any such medicine about 2 hours after taking Cebitra 200mg Tablet. If you are taking antacids (medicines that stop the production of stomach acid), take Cebitra 200mg Tablet capsules with a drink of cola.
Q. What is drug resistance? Is it possible to develop resistance to Cebitra 200mg Tablet?
Sometimes it happens that the fungi get modified in your body and the medicine no longer works. This is called drug resistance.
