Diflu Capsule 50 mg contains Fluconazole 50 mg, a broad-spectrum triazole antifungal medication used to treat and prevent a variety of fungal and yeast infections. It is effective against infections caused by Candida and Cryptococcus species by inhibiting fungal growth. Diflu Capsule is commonly prescribed for oral thrush, esophageal candidiasis, skin and mucosal fungal infections, urinary tract fungal infections, and for the prevention of fungal infections in individuals with weakened immune systems.

Fluconazole is well absorbed after oral administration and distributes extensively throughout the body, allowing it to effectively treat fungal infections in different organs and tissues. Its once-daily dosing and proven clinical efficacy make it a trusted choice for antifungal therapy. Diflu Capsule should always be used under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional.

Composition

Each capsule contains:

• Fluconazole 50 mg

How Diflu Capsule Works

Fluconazole belongs to the azole antifungal class of medicines. It works by blocking the fungal enzyme 14-alpha-demethylase, which is essential for the production of ergosterol, a vital component of the fungal cell membrane.

Without sufficient ergosterol, the fungal cell membrane becomes unstable, preventing fungal cells from growing and multiplying. This action effectively eliminates susceptible fungi while having minimal effects on human cells.
