Indications

Ravuconazole capsule is indicated for the treatment of Onychomycosis.

Pharmacology

Fosravuconazole L-lysine ethanolate is a prodrug of Ravuconazole, a novel triazole antifungal agent, exerting broad and potent antifungal activity. It shows antimycotic effects by inhibiting the biosynthesis of ergosterol, which is a cellular membrane component of fungi. Ravuconazole is structurally more similar to fluconazole and voriconazole, containing a thiazole instead of a second triazole. It is usually used to treat Onychomycosis. Ravuconazole is highly active against all Aspergillus species (including A. fumigatus & A. flavus isolates), Candida spp., Cryptococcus neoformans & other yeasts, including fluconazole-resistant isolates.

Dosage & Administration

Important:
Do not take any medication without a doctor's prescription. Self-medication can be dangerous.
The usual adult dosage is 1 capsule (100 mg as Ravuconazole) administered orally once daily for a period of 12 weeks.

Interaction

The therapeutic efficacy of Ravuconazole can be increased when used in combination with Amiodarone, Amlodipine, Bepridil, Cinnarizine, Clevidipine & Carvedilol. The therapeutic efficacy of Acenocoumarol can be increased when used in combination with Ravuconazole. Cimetidine, Calcium carbonate, Almasilate, Aluminium phosphate, Aluminum hydroxide & Asenapine can cause a decrease in the absorption of Ravuconazole resulting in a reduced serum concentration and potentially a decrease in efficacy.
