Biozole 200 mg

Contains the active ingredient: Fluconazole 200 mg which belongs to the group of azole antifungals. It blocks an enzyme that is vital for fungi.

Cholesterol is usually only mentioned in a negative context - as a blood fat that can "clog" the vessels. In certain quantities, however, cholesterol is essential for the human body. Among other things, it is an important building block of the cell membrane. 

Without cholesterol and thus without a functioning membrane, the body's cells would no longer be able to perform many tasks.

The membrane of fungal cells contains a building block that is structurally related to, but not identical to, cholesterol: ergosterol (also called ergosterol). Without this substance, the fungal membrane loses its stability and the fungus is no longer able to grow.

What is it used for?

Treat fungal infections. 

Examples of this are the infestation of the oral, nasal and vaginal mucous membranes with the yeast fungus Candida albicans (e.g. oral thrush, vaginal thrush), fungal skin diseases (dermatomycoses) and the infestation of the meninges with Coccidioides immitis (coccidioidomycosis, also known as valley or desert fever).

Therapy with fluconazole can also be carried out as a precautionary measure to prevent a (renewed) fungal infection in immunocompromised patients. These would be, for example, transplant patients, cancer and HIV patients.

Treatment is usually carried out over a limited period of time, as the development of resistance in the fungi cannot be ruled out. In individual cases, however, long-term treatment with fluconazole may also be necessary.
