Itracon Vet 15ml

Itracon Vet 15ml is a veterinary medication, typically in liquid form, used to treat fungal infections in animals. It contains Itraconazole, an antifungal agent.

Description:

• Active Ingredient: Itraconazole
• Formulation: Liquid solution, 15ml bottle
• Purpose: Used to treat systemic fungal infections caused by dermatophytes, yeasts, and molds in animals like dogs and cats.

How it works:

Itraconazole belongs to the triazole class of antifungals. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of the fungal cell membrane, leading to increased cell membrane permeability and ultimately fungal cell death.

Usage:

• Typically administered orally in the form of drops or liquid as prescribed by a veterinarian.
• The dosage depends on the animal’s weight, species, and the severity of the infection.
• The treatment duration is decided by the veterinarian, often requiring several weeks.

Important considerations:

• Always follow the veterinarian’s instructions regarding dosage and duration.
• Monitor the animal for any side effects such as gastrointestinal upset or liver issues.
• Regular check-ups and possibly blood tests may be needed to monitor liver function during treatment.
