How does Fluconazole (Generic Fluconazole) treat?

Fluconazole (Generic Fluconazole) is a type of medicine called a triazole antifungal. Fluconazole (Generic Fluconazole) is used to treat infections with fungi and yeasts.

Fluconazole (Generic Fluconazole) works by preventing fungi from producing a substance called ergosterol, which is a component of fungal cell membranes. The cell membranes of fungi are vital for their survival. They keep unwanted substances from entering the cells and stop the contents of the cells from leaking out. Without ergosterol as part of the cell membrane, the membrane is weakened and damaged, and essential constituents of the fungal cells can leak out. This kills the fungi.

Fluconazole (Generic Fluconazole) is used to treat a number of different types of fungal infections and yeast infection, particularly those caused by Candida or Cryptococcus species of fungi.
