Fludar 200 mg Tablet

Fludar 200 mg Tablet is an oral antifungal medicine that contains 200 mg of fluconazole in each tablet. It belongs to the triazole class and is used to treat certain fungal and yeast infections, including vaginal yeast infections, oral thrush, esophageal candidiasis, and some systemic fungal infections when prescribed. This exact strength is a higher-dose tablet, so it is typically chosen when a clinician wants a larger fluconazole dose in a single tablet.

How it works: Fluconazole works by blocking a fungal enzyme needed to make ergosterol, an important part of the fungal cell membrane. Without that membrane support, the fungus cannot grow normally and gradually dies off, and the Fludar 200 mg Tablet lets the medicine be absorbed through the digestive system after swallowing.

Fludar 200 mg Tablet provides 200 mg of fluconazole in one tablet, which is more than the lower-dose tablets often used for milder infections or stepwise dosing. Because this is a higher strength, it is usually suited for adults who have been specifically assessed by a doctor and need a stronger single-dose or maintenance dose depending on the infection being treated.

• Yeast infections
• Oral thrush
• Esophageal candidiasis
• Certain systemic fungal infections
• Prevention of fungal infection in selected patients

• Swallow the Fludar 200 mg Tablet whole with a glass of water.
• Take it exactly as prescribed; the dose and schedule depend on the infection being treated.
• You can usually take fluconazole tablets with or without food unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Take it at the same time each day if you are prescribed more than one dose.
• Do not double up on doses if you miss one; ask your doctor or pharmacist what to do.
• Keep taking it for the full course even if symptoms improve early.

Each Fludar 200 mg Tablet supplies 200 mg of fluconazole per tablet. Depending on the infection, a doctor may prescribe it as a one-time dose, once-daily dosing, or another schedule, and the maximum daily amount depends on the condition and your prescriber’s plan. Do not change the dose on your own, because the right amount for this 200 mg strength is individualized.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
