Scientific Evidence

Itraconazole, the active ingredient in Orungal, works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a key component of fungal cell membranes. This disrupts the fungal cell membrane, leading to cell death and clearance of the infection. Studies have shown the efficacy of itraconazole in treating various fungal infections, with favorable outcomes in clinical trials.

Additional Information

It is important to complete the full course of treatment with Orungal as prescribed by your healthcare provider, even if symptoms improve before the course is finished. Failure to complete the full course may result in the infection returning or becoming resistant to treatment. If you experience any severe side effects while taking Orungal, contact your doctor immediately.

Before starting Orungal, inform your doctor about any other medications you are taking, as well as any medical conditions you have, to avoid potential drug interactions or complications.
