About Endfung 100Mg Inj

Endfung 100Mg Inj belongs to the class of medicines called antifungals used to treat invasive candidiasis. Invasive candidiasis is a type of fungal infection of the blood or other internal organs caused by yeast (a type of fungus) called Candida. 

Endfung 100Mg Inj contains Anidulafungin, which works by preventing the normal development of fungal cell walls by making them fragile or unable to grow. Thus, Endfung 100Mg Inj kills fungus and helps to treat fungal infection.

Endfung 100Mg Inj will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. Endfung 100Mg Inj may cause common side effects such as nausea, diarrhoea, hypokalaemia (low blood potassium), headache, vomiting, or difficulty breathing. Most of these side effects of Endfung 100Mg Inj gradually resolve over time and do not require medical attention. However, if the side effects worsen or persist, please consult your doctor.

Please tell your doctor if you are allergic to Anidulafungin, caspofungin, or any other medicines. Endfung 100Mg Inj is not recommended for use during pregnancy. If you are of childbearing age, effective contraception should be used. If you are a nursing mother, take your doctor’s advice before receiving Endfung 100Mg Inj.
