Zocon DT 100 mg Tablet

Zocon DT 100 mg Tablet is an antifungal medicine that contains fluconazole 100 mg in each tablet. It is used to treat fungal and yeast infections in different parts of the body, including some mouth, throat, vaginal, skin, and systemic infections, when a doctor decides it is appropriate. This Zocon DT 100 mg Tablet is a prescription-strength oral tablet made by FDC, India, and it is intended for use under medical guidance.

How it works: Fluconazole works by blocking a fungal enzyme that the organism needs to build its cell membrane. Without that protective membrane, the fungus cannot grow well and the infection can improve over time after taking the Zocon DT 100 mg Tablet by mouth.

Zocon DT 100 mg Tablet is the higher-strength option compared with Zocon DT 50 mg Tablet, so it may be chosen when a doctor wants a 100 mg dose rather than two 50 mg tablets. It can be more convenient for patients who need this exact strength and schedule, but it is not meant for everyone or for self-selection. A doctor may choose Zocon DT 100 mg Tablet based on the type of infection, severity, body weight, kidney function, and how often the dose needs to be given.

• Vaginal yeast infections
• Oral thrush
• Esophageal candidiasis
• Skin fungal infections
• Preventing fungal infection in some high-risk patients

• Take Zocon DT 100 mg Tablet by mouth with water exactly as prescribed.
• Swallow the tablet whole unless your pharmacist or doctor tells you otherwise.
• It may be taken with or without food.
• Take it at the same time each day if you are on a daily schedule.
• Do not use it more often or for longer than prescribed, even if symptoms improve.
• If you miss a dose, take it when remembered unless it is almost time for the next dose.

Each Zocon DT 100 mg Tablet provides 100 mg of fluconazole. Depending on the infection, it may be taken once daily, as a single dose, or on a schedule set by the prescriber; the maximum dose per day depends on the condition being treated and the doctor’s instructions. Because this is a 100 mg strength, it is a higher-dose tablet than Zocon DT 50 mg Tablet and should be used only when the prescribed regimen calls for 100 mg.

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