Question 2

how does itracon itraconazole tablets works?

Accepted Answer

Itraconazole : It is an antifungal. It inhibits ergosterol synthesis.

Question 3

how long does it take for itraconazole(sporanox) to start working?

Accepted Answer

Too soon to tell: Even if it is wildly successful, it takes several months with sporanox (or Lamisil (terbinafine) oral or even laser therapy) to see results.  It is because nails grow so slowly and the new nail--the back of the nail--will hopefully be clear, but it takes several months for the new nail to become visible. If working, the nail will grow in like a window shade with progressively more of the nail being clear.

Accepted Answer

Pharmacy: At any pharmacy with a prescription.

Question 5

can u take itraconazole with alcohol?

Accepted Answer

Shouldn't: Alcohol increases liver metabolism. Some medications are metabolized and less effective.

Question 7

im on a 15 day course of itraconazole, can i drink?

Accepted Answer

Alcohol, I assume?: Antifungal agents like itraconazole have strong potential for liver damage. Even though no interactions between itraconazole & ethanol (alcohol) are listed, i'd advise against drinking while on this drug, for it has many other interactions, such as grapefruit juice & dozens of medications. Better to be safe.
