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.
I am currently being treated by an infectious disease doctor, and he has me taking 100mg of Itraconazole per day. The name brand for Itraconazole is Sporanox. I still have this yeast infection! The medicine has not helped me yet. Why is this happening? I don't understand why merely taking an antibiotic for a sinus infection caused me to get a yeast infection that I just cannot get rid of? If there are other people that are in the same situation, please respond to my post.
The effect had begun at day 13-14 and until 6 weeks after the end of the treatement. After, they gave me itraconazole 200 (Sporanox) during 1 week and it worked very well. So my dermatologist conclued it was atypic pityriasis versicolor. Unfortunately, now he is retired. And I am in trouble because others dermatologists say it is eczema (clinical). They dont't understand why Triflucan works with me. They never treated me until the rash completely disappear.
I have been diagnosed with seborrheic dermatitis on my face. I was asked to take sporanox capsules by the doc for a week and consult the doc soon after. The fungal infection subsided within that period but I did not consult the doc after that. The infection has returned once again . I would like to know if I should take the capsules once again for a week and then consult the doc or meet the doc before taking them.
I consulted another Urologist and he saw it again and said that it was normal infection. He suggested be Augmentin and ITRACONAZOLE capsules. and also advised to apply Betadine on the head of the penis and the foreskin.
I followed that, the blisters have gone now, but I have red rashes (not wrinkles but lines and dotes) on the head of the penis. They seem to be more visible when the penis is erect. Also, if I apply betadine for 2-3 days, skin of the head becomes dry and gets wrinkles.
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) ..
What is the connection between itraconazole and hemmorhagic stroke in an otherwise healthy male with no pre-existing conditions to cause a stroke?
Thats correct and you are eating the wrong way
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.
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.

If it is neither then you may have to get a dermatologist's opinion on a possible Melanoma which can start under the toenail on occasion.
I would not take lamisil ever again. It is notoriously hard on your liver. Sporanox is really bad for the liver also.
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 went to the gyno who looked at the discharge under the microscope and said i was loaded wit yeast so she tried itraconazole twice a day for a week bc she thought it could have been a resistant type of yeast. That medication did nothing for me. Now I am going back to the gyno and I know the next step she said would be to supress the yeast by taking medication mulitple times but, I've heard this can be bad for the liver.
Does anyone know if it is ok to release the medicine out of capsules and mix the medicine up in juice? I have a problem swallowing pills and was not sure if this was an option????
The doctor can prescribe different creams, sprays and/or oral capsules to take. If you have oral thrush, then specific antifungal medications are used for oral thrush. You can purchase Daktarin for mouth thrush from the pharmacy, but any other then your doctor has to prescribe.
You can purchase capsules that you take by mouth from the pharmacy - 100mg or 200mg Fluconazole - this is a single dose capsule.
