Fungivin 250 mg Tablet

Fungivin 250 mg Tablet is an oral antifungal medicine that contains 250 mg of griseofulvin in each tablet. It is used to treat certain fungal infections of the skin, hair, and nails, including ringworm, tinea, and some scalp infections. The medicine works best when taken exactly as prescribed, because fungal infections often need several weeks of treatment. Fungivin 250 mg Tablet is a prescription product made by Euphoric Pharmaceuticals Pvt. Ltd. and is supplied as a strip/box of 10 tablets.

How it works: Griseofulvin works by getting into the skin, hair, and nails and making it harder for fungus to grow and spread. Since Fungivin 250 mg Tablet is taken by mouth, it treats infections from the inside while new, healthy tissue grows in over time.

The 250 mg strength is a standard tablet option that lets a doctor adjust treatment more precisely than a larger fixed dose would. Because Fungivin 250 mg Tablet is a medium-strength tablet rather than a starter dose for everyone, it may be chosen when a clinician wants a specific total daily amount based on the infection being treated, age, and response. The exact schedule can vary, so the prescribed dose may be one tablet several times a day or another doctor-directed regimen.

• Ringworm of the body
• Athlete’s foot when oral treatment is needed
• Jock itch
• Fungal infections of the scalp and hair
• Some nail fungal infections

• Take Fungivin 250 mg Tablet by mouth with water, exactly as prescribed.
• Take it with a meal or a fatty food, since food helps your body absorb griseofulvin better.
• Swallow the tablet whole unless your doctor or pharmacist tells you a different way to take it.
• Try to take each dose at the same time every day to keep levels steady.
• Finish the full course even if the rash, itching, or scaling starts to improve.
• Do not double up doses if you miss one; follow your prescriber’s instructions.

Each Fungivin 250 mg Tablet provides 250 mg of griseofulvin per tablet. The dosing schedule can range from once daily to divided doses, depending on the infection and the patient, and the total daily amount is set by the doctor. Do not exceed the maximum daily dose your prescriber recommends; this strength is for individualized treatment, not self-adjusting.

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