What you have read is correct. You could discuss this finding with your doctor and get him to prescribe it for you. Since the treatment is long-term it is better to go with onr which is tolerated better by the body.
Then i tried itraconazole 200mg a day for a month as suggested by another friend. It cured my itch but again came back after 10 days . Then a dermatologist suggested me terbinafine and fluconazole, but it dint give much result. I tried ketoconazole soap and oitment also and it got worse. Then again I tried itraconazole 100mg twice for a month, i was cured within 10 days. But again this recurrent jock itch keeps on coming back.
As my rash improve a lot with itraconazole and fluconazole but not with terbinafine and griseofulvin, could we determinate what mycosis it is ?
How long after taking oral fluconazole I have to wait to do the tests ?
Thanks.
Then I went for a check up and the doctor prescribed me itraconazole 100 mg and terbinafine 250 mg oral solution and Luliconazole cream. Infection was cured completely. But now again it has appeared on my body. Specifically on my neck. I am having the same oral solution and using Clotrimazole topical cream. But it's not effective like before. Instead of being cured it's spreading. I am also using ketoconazole soap for bathing.
What is the connection between itraconazole and hemmorhagic stroke in an otherwise healthy male with no pre-existing conditions to cause a stroke?
He referred to a Dermatologist. Administred Terbinafine-500mg (10days) and Fexofenadine-120mg (7 days) continued applying Miconazole but had no relief. She further advised me to take Levofloaxacin 750mg for 5 days together with appky Terbinafine Cream. But still no relief. Infection resurface with spreading to more areas.
It could have been a few different kinds, but they usually prescribe terbinafine or itraconazole. Make sure to call your doctor to talk through what options would be best for you.
miconazole, tolnaftate, terbinafine, ketaconazole and clotrimazole. You can consult a pharmacist and get any cream or lotion containing these ingredients. Some of them are Lamisil, Monistat derm, Mycelex, and Nizoral. If the symptoms persist then please consult a dermatologist.
I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted in case you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
These include topical antifungals like econazole (Spectazole) or oxiconazole (Oxistat) and oral antifungals like Itraconazole (Sporanox),Fluconazole (Diflucan) or Terbinafine (Lamisil)
Triamcolone acetonide is a more potent type of triamcinolone, being about 8 times as effective as prednisone.It should not be used to treat fungal infections without consulting a dermatologist.
Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing.Kind regards.
After that i went to doctor and she prescribed me Syntran (Itraconazole ) (Glenmark) 100 mg 4 capsules in a day and serakon (Wockhardt) cream to apply on infected area.For the first 1 month i took it on regular basis.I improved and it cured the disease but after few months it appeared again on the same area.After that i did the same thing and it got cured.But now this time it appeared again.Now i am went to doctor and he prescribed me the following:
terbicip Tablets (Terbinafine) (Cipla) ..
ketoconazole, fluconazole, itraconazole, terbinafine ( I have tried these 4 drugs in oral and topical form) I have also tried selsun shampoo and all of these have failed. I was wondering if there was anymore hope for me? Is there anymore antifungal pill I can take? Due to my rash not responding well to 3 azole antifungals does this mean it won't respond to any of the other azole antifungals? And are there anyother antifungal that are effective that arnt azole?
P.
Broad spectrum antibiotics (3 months; folliculitis suspected, later ruled out), nizoral pills (3 weeks), fluconazole (50mg/day for 5 weeks), itraconazole (200mg/day for 9 weeks)
-probably forgot something...
6) Outcome of treatment: Very characteristically (and contrary to the promises) my SD is not controllable at all (not even by adrenal cortical hormones), and I can find no correlation between medication (of any kind) and my symptoms. They are consistent and annoying!
You can try another type of drug that is not ending in azole as the fungi get resistant to these. One is Lamisil (terbinafine). It is an over the counter cream (topical) or maybe they have a spray. Use it as directed. Usually 2-3 times a day externally for about a week or week and a half. Are you a man or woman? Is it external? If not you can't use this internally. But they can give you different medication. But I can talk to you about that if it is internal.
I used most of the antifungal creams that the doctor had been prescribing me, but nothing helped. She also prescribed me itraconazole tablets at the end, but to use only for a week. During the therapy, it started being a bit better, but after 7 days it started itching and turned back as before. I also used terbinafine cream at the same time, (for 3red time). I also used ketoconazole shampoo several times. Please if someone have advice what to do bcs my doctor don't know what do do as well.
However, if the patient remains symptomatic after 4 weeks, therapy with itraconazole, 200 mg daily for 6 to 12 weeks, can be given. Patients who have severe outbreak-associated histoplasmosis and all immunosuppressed patients should be treated. Initial therapy with amphotericin B, 0.7 to 1 mg/kg daily, can be followed by oral itraconazole after a favorable response is noted. Antifungal therapy should be given to all patients with chronic pulmonary histoplasmosis.
Many orazl antifungals are used like Griseofulvin, Terbinafine and Itraconazole but they have many side effects and should be used under a dermatologist’s guidance.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
I am on week four, this diet is making me miserable, and I am now taking Itraconazole. I only wanted to breathe, and I only used the inhaler 6 times total. This seems ridiculous to still have this infection, and I only want to know how to be rid of it. Can anyone please advise?
if a patient is allergic to itraconazole, is i safe for her to take voriconazole?
Does antifungals agents (like flukonazole, itraconazole etc.) taken in pills works in the digestive tract?
Can these drugs destroy adrenal?
I saw a dermatologist last week who gave me 200mg Itraconazole and lotriderm cream (clotrimazole), he told me everything would be cleared up in one week but after 5 days I haven't seen any real improvement.
Is this definitely fungal?
If so, why hasn't it responded to treatment? I've used daktarin powder and cream in the past and still my inner thighs felt rough.
This is really affecting my quality of life and getting me down.
