Caspogard 50Mg Injection belongs to the class of medicines known as 'antifungals' used to treat various fungal infections. A fungal infection is caused when a fungus invades and affects any body part.
Caspogard 50Mg 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. As a result, fungal cells get killed, or their growth is minimized.
A qualified healthcare professional will administer Caspogard 50Mg Injection. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects, such as injection site reactions, headaches, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, stomach pain, tremors, sweating, high blood pressure, difficulty sleeping and swelling of the hands, ankles, or feet. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Before taking Caspogard 50Mg Injection, inform your doctor about your medical condition, sensitivities, and medications. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Do not use any other medicines with Caspogard 50Mg Injection without a doctor's recommendation. Caspogard 50Mg Injection may cause dizziness; therefore, avoid driving vehicles or operating machinery until you return to normal. Avoid the consumption of alcohol while on Caspofungin therapy.
Caspogard 50Mg 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.
