One of the modern effective antifungal drugs is orungal. Side effects in orungala are fairly common, it is common to all antifungal drugs. That is why the treatment of fungal infections should only be prescribed by a doctor.

The main action orungala

Orungal - a modern anti-fungal drug, the active substance is itraconazole. After oral itraconazole actively absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, the blood flows initially and then to the tissue. Orungala peculiarity is that its active substance accumulates in the tissues in much greater concentrations than in the blood.

Enrolling in the tissue affected by pathogenic fungi, inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol orungal - biologically active substance, a component of cell membranes of fungi, it leads to the destruction of fungal cells.

Displayed orungal with feces and urine, after decomposing in the liver to metabolites. Overall orungal drug is not toxic and is generally well tolerated. But in this case, when it is assigned to a physician taking into account all the indications and contraindications.

Side effects from the cardiovascular system

But if there were pains in the right upper quadrant or liver problems, which may appear light yellow skin and sclera, and can - only changes in the laboratory analyzes, the orungal usually overturned. This must be done, as there are isolated cases of toxic hepatitis Toxic hepatitis - the impact of harmful substances on the liver   patients receiving orungal.

Side effects of other organs and systems
