About Lantraz 100 Capsule

Lantraz 100 Capsule is an antifungal medicine used to treat fungal infections of the mouth, throat, toenails, fingernails or lungs. A fungal infection is a disease in which a fungus attacks the tissue and causes infection. Fungal infections may be contagious (spread from one person to another).

Lantraz 100 Capsule contains Itraconazole, which works by inhibiting the production of ergosterol (a main component of cell membranes of fungi). Thus, it causes the main components of fungal cells to leak out, killing fungi and clearing the fungal infection.

Some people may experience common side effects such as nausea, headache, diarrhoea, tiredness, cough, cold, throat pain, back pain and stomach pain. Most of these side effects of Lantraz 100 Capsule do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist, please consult your doctor.

If you are known to be allergic to Lantraz 100 Capsule or any other medicines, please tell your doctor.
