Fungone Capsule Uses
About Fungone Capsule
Fungone Capsule uses include treating and managing various fungal and yeast infections. It contains Fluconazole, a triazole antifungal that works by interfering with the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes. This disruption weakens the cell membrane, stops fungal growth, and helps clear infections throughout the body.
