Description
Nizoral (generic name: Ketoconazole) is an antifungal medication. Fungi are organisms normally found on the skin and in moist areas of the body. When the skin is injured or chronically moistened, or normal bacteria flora of the body are altered due to prolonged antibiotic treatment, fungus can proliferate to cause inflammation of the skin or moist body areas. Fungus organisms can also infect the lungs and other body tissues especially in patients with weakened immune systems. Nizoral is used to treat a variety of fungal infections. Examples of these fungal infections include candida infections of the skin or mouth (thrush), blastomycosis, histoplasmosis, coccidiomycosis, and others. Nizoral is also used to treat fungal infections that have not responded to griseofulvin, another antifungal medication.
Recommendations
Take Nizoral by mouth with or without food.
Do not take an antacid within 1 hour before or 2 hours after you take Nizoral .
If you are also taking an anticholinergic (eg, hyoscyamine), an H2 antagonist (eg, famotidine), or a proton pump inhibitor (eg, omeprazole), take Nizoral at least 2 hours before the H2 antagonist, proton pump inhibitor, or anticholinergic.
To clear up your infection completely, take Nizoral for the full course of treatment. Keep taking it even if you feel better in a few days.
Nizoral works best if it is taken at the same time each day.
If you miss a dose of Nizoral, take it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once.
Precautions
Use of alcohol with Nizoral has rarely caused symptoms such as flushing, rash, swelling of the hands and feet, nausea, and headache. Talk with your doctor before drinking alcohol while taking Nizoral .
Nizoral only works against fungi; it does not treat viral infections (eg, the common cold) or bacterial infections.
