Fungal infections
Medicinal Benefits:
Canducid 70 mg Injection is an antifungal agent, a medicine used to treat several fungal infections. It can be used to treat fungal infections that other drugs have failed to treat. It is also used to treat serious fungal infections in persons who have a reduced immune system. Canducid 70 mg Injection works by killing or preventing fungi or yeast by inhibiting an enzyme in fungi responsible for its membrane formation. As a result, fungal cells get killed, or their growth is minimized.
Canducid 70 mg Injection contains Caspofungin, which inhibits the formation of a fungal cell wall component required for the fungus to continue living and growing. When fungal cells are exposed to Caspofungin, their cell walls become partial or faulty, making them fragile and unable to grow.
Canducid 70 mg Injection is not suitable for patients with known hypersensitivity to any components present in Canducid 70 mg Injection.
Canducid 70 mg Injection is unlikely to interfere with your contraception, including the combination pill or emergency contraception. For further information, seek medical advice from your healthcare professional.
