About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Zocon 200 Tablet contains Fluconazole 200 mg, an antifungal agent belonging to the triazole class, indicated for the treatment and prevention of a variety of fungal infections. Fluconazole works by inhibiting the fungal cytochrome P450 enzyme 14α-demethylase, which is essential for converting lanosterol to ergosterol, a key component of the fungal cell membrane. This disruption leads to increased membrane permeability and ultimately fungal cell death. Zocon 200 is commonly prescribed for candidiasis, including oropharyngeal, esophageal, and systemic candidiasis, as well as cryptococcal meningitis. It is also effective against dermatophytic infections and certain systemic mycoses. The tablet is administered orally, with dosage and duration tailored according to the type and severity of infection, patient age, and renal function. Fluconazole is generally well tolerated; however, potential adverse effects include gastrointestinal disturbances, headache, rash, and, rarely, hepatotoxicity or QT prolongation. Caution is advised in patients with liver impairment or those on medications that may interact with Fluconazole, such as certain antiepileptics, anticoagulants, and statins. Regular monitoring of liver function tests and ECG may be recommended during prolonged therapy. Zocon 200 should be used under medical supervision to ensure efficacy and safety.
