ORIPHEX 250MG CAPSULE 10'S

How ORIPHEX 250MG CAPSULE 10'S Works

• ORIPHEX 250MG CAPSULE 10'S contains Fluconazole as its active ingredient, which is an antifungal medication. Fluconazole belongs to the azole class of antifungals and works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a crucial component of fungal cell membranes. Ergosterol is essential for maintaining the structure and function of the fungal cell membrane; without it, the cell membrane becomes leaky, disrupting cellular processes and ultimately leading to fungal cell death.
• When you ingest ORIPHEX 250MG CAPSULE, Fluconazole is absorbed into your bloodstream and distributed throughout your body. It selectively targets fungal cells, leaving human cells relatively unharmed due to the differences in cell membrane composition. By interfering with ergosterol production, Fluconazole disrupts the integrity of the fungal cell membrane. This disruption increases the permeability of the membrane, causing essential cellular components to leak out, and toxic substances to enter. Consequently, the fungal cell's growth is inhibited, and the infection is gradually eliminated.
• The effectiveness of ORIPHEX 250MG CAPSULE stems from its ability to specifically target and inhibit fungal growth. It is used to treat a wide range of fungal infections, including yeast infections (such as Candida), bloodstream infections (candidemia), and other systemic fungal diseases. Adhering to the prescribed dosage and duration is vital to ensure complete eradication of the fungal infection and prevent the development of resistance. Always consult with your healthcare provider for appropriate diagnosis and treatment plans.

• ORIPHEX 250MG CAPSULE 10'S is most effective when taken on an empty stomach, typically one hour before or two hours after a meal.

Proper hydration supports overall health and can improve the medication's effectiveness.
