Frequently asked questions
What is Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule used for?
Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule is an antifungal medication used to treat various fungal infections, including those caused by Trichophyton spp., Microsporum spp., and Epidermophyton floccosum. It is also effective against persistent candida (yeast) infections of the vagina or mouth/throat in patients with lower disease resistance.
For how long do I need to take Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule?
The duration of treatment depends on the type and site of infection, as well as your individual response to the medication. Typically, it may be taken for a period of 1-30 days or more, depending on the specific condition being treated.
I am taking Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule for nail infection but there does not seem to be any improvement. Can I stop taking it?
No, you should not stop taking Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule 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.
Why has my doctor asked me to get blood tests done?
Your doctor is probably trying to monitor your liver's functioning, as Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule may cause serious liver damage. If you develop any symptoms such as loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, dark urine, or abdominal pain while taking the medication, inform your doctor immediately.
Can I take antacid and Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule together?
Yes, but it is recommended to take antacids about 2 hours after taking Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule. If you are taking antacids that stop the production of stomach acid, take Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule capsules with a drink of cola.
What is drug resistance? Is it possible to develop resistance to Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule?
Sometimes, fungi can become resistant to antifungal medications like Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule. This is called drug resistance. Resistance to Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule has been reported with some candida species (krusei, glabrata, and tropicalis). To avoid developing resistance, it is essential to complete the full course of treatment.
I have been on alprazolam for quite some time. Is it okay if I start Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule now?
Yes, you can take both Alprazolam and Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule together, but keep a watch on the side effects of alprazolam such as lightheadedness or drowsiness. If side effects appear after taking Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule, talk to your doctor who will modify the dose of alprazolam.
My doctor prescribed Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule to me but not to my friend who had a similar fungal infection because she was on dofetilide. Why is it so?
Your doctor did not prescribe Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule to your friend because Iphytoral SB 65mg Capsule interferes with the working of dofetilide, which can cause disturbed electrical activity of the heart and be harmful to the patient.
