What is drug resistance? Is it possible to develop resistance to NANOFORCE 200mg Capsule?
Drug resistance occurs when fungi in your body become modified, making the medication less effective.

My doctor prescribed NANOFORCE 200mg 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 NANOFORCE 200mg Capsule to your friend because NANOFORCE 200mg Capsule can interfere with the working of dofetilide, potentially causing disturbed electrical activity of the heart.
