Itraconazole<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Itraconazole Stada contains the active substance itraconazole, which belongs to a group of antifungal medicines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Itraconazole Stada is used to treat infections caused by fungus or yeast. It is used for:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– Infection is in the mouth or vagina that causes cod (a specific type of inflammation of the mucous membrane)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– Skin infections<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– Infection is in nails<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Itraconazole contained in Itraconazole STADA may also be approved for the treatment of other conditions not mentioned in this product information. Ask your doctor, pharmacist, or other healthcare professional if you have any further questions, and always follow their instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to itraconazole or any of the other ingredients of Itraconazole Stada (see section 6 Further information, at the end of this leaflet).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– if you are pregnant or may become pregnant unless your doctor has explicitly stated that you can (see section “Pregnancy and breastfeeding”).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– if you have or have had heart failure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
– if you are being treated at the same time with any of the following medicines:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Antifungal drugs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Talk to your doctor if you have previously had a hypersensitivity \/ allergic reaction to any medicine containing an azole substance (eg fluconazole ). It is possible that you are then also allergic to Itraconazole Stada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Liver disease<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have impaired liver function due to excessive alcohol intake ( cirrhosis ), your doctor may need to adjust your dosage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Kidney disease<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have impaired kidney function, your doctor may need to adjust your dosage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Heart disease<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Tell your doctor if you suffer from heart failure (when your heart can no longer pump enough blood with symptoms such as shortness of breath, swollen ankles, and problems with cardio). If you develop any of these symptoms during treatment, stop taking Itraconazole Stada and see a doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have or have had heart failure, you should not take Itrakonazole Stada unless your doctor considers the benefits to outweigh the risks. In order for the doctor to be able to determine this, it is important that you tell them if you have any other diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gastric acid<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Your medicine is better absorbed if your stomach contains stomach acid. If you are taking antacids (eg aluminum hydroxide), take the antacid at least two hours after Itraconazole Stada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is possible that your stomach does not contain enough stomach acid so that you do not produce normal levels. This can happen if you have HIV ( AIDS ) or if you are taking medicines for stomach ulcers such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n – H 2<\/sub> – antagonist is<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Proton pump inhibitors<\/p>\n\n\n\n If this is the case, take Itraconazole Stada with something sour to drink, such as a carbonated soft drink or fruit juice, which are usually acidic. Itraconazole Stada will be properly absorbed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Liver disease<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are taking Itrakonazole Stada, your doctor may need to check your liver function during treatment. If you have any symptoms of inflammation of the liver ( hepatitis ), you must stop taking Itraconazole Stada immediately and contact your doctor. Symptoms include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Loss of appetite ( anorexia )<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Nausea<\/p>\n\n\n\n Vomiting<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Fatigue<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Stomach pain<\/p>\n\n\n\n – Dark-colored urine<\/p>\n\n\n\n You should not take Itraconazole Stada if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n – you have a liver disease<\/p>\n\n\n\n – your blood tests show elevated levels of liver enzymes<\/p>\n\n\n\n – you have had liver problems in connection with taking medicine before<\/p>\n\n\n\n Neuropathy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you develop signs of nerve damage ( neuropathy ), you should stop taking Itraconazole Stada. Signs of nerve damage include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n loss of sensation<\/p>\n\n\n\n shaking<\/p>\n\n\n\n tingling and tingling<\/p>\n\n\n\n – the feeling of weakness<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hearing loss<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Tell your doctor if you notice any hearing loss. The hearing loss usually disappears when treatment is stopped but may persist in some patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n High blood pressure<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Tell your doctor if you have high blood pressure and are being treated with a medicine that belongs to the group of calcium channel blockers (eg dihydropyridines, verapamil). The dosage one with your blood pressure medication may need to be changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Resistant infection you<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Some infections may be resistant to medicines of the same type as Itraconazole Stada. For example, cod may be resistant to treatment with fluconazole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tell your doctor if you have previously been treated with fluconazole for cod without effect. Your doctor may consider prescribing a medicine other than Itrakonazole Stada. Your doctor may also perform a test to find out if Itraconazole Stada will be effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Patients with immediate life-threatening systemic fungal infections<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Itraconazole Stada capsules are not recommended for initiating treatment of patients with direct life-threatening systemic fungal infections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Other diseases<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Tell your doctor if you have AIDS or your immune system is not working as well as it should.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Children and the elderly<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Itraconazole Stada capsules are not normally given to children or the elderly. DO NOT TAKE Itraconazole Stada capsules unless your doctor tells you to. Your doctor can determine if the benefits outweigh the risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have any further questions on the use of this product, ask your doctor or pharmacist.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Itraconazole Stada capsules are not normally given to children. DO NOT TAKE Itraconazole Stada capsules unless your doctor tells you to.

Swallow the capsules whole. If you are taking medicines that reduce your stomach acid, you should drink something acidic, such as a carbonated drink.
