Treatment of fungal infections such as vaginal candidiasis, oral/esophageal candidiasis, systemic candidiasis, cryptococcal infections (including meningitis), and other susceptible fungal infections as prescribed.

Fluconazole is an azole antifungal that inhibits fungal CYP450 enzyme (14-alpha demethylase), reducing ergosterol synthesis. This disrupts the fungal cell membrane and stops fungal growth.

Capsule to be taken by mouth as directed by the doctor; swallow whole with water. Can be taken with or without food; take at the same time each day if prescribed for multiple days. Complete the full course.
