Fungal infections can be fatal, too. According to source, the most common Candida infections have a global mortality rate of 63.6%. That’s more than half the patients suffering from a fungal infection at risk. However, Fluconazole has been an effective treatment for fungal infections of the skin and other organs.

What is Fluconazole API used for?
Fluconazole API is the core element of Fluconazole, used in antifungal treatment. Fluconazole is a triazole-based antifungal known for inhibiting fungal cell membrane formation . It prevents the formation of ergosterol, which is necessary for the growth of infection-causing fungi. It treats both superficial and systemic infections.
What type of fungus does Fluconazole treat?
Fluconazole is used as an antifungal treatment for the following two types of fungi:
- Candida (yeast infections) causes oral thrush, vaginal yeast infection, and skin infection.
- Cryptococcus causes cryptococcal meningitis, an infection in the brain, lungs, and spinal cord. It is often fatal and thus needs careful medical supervision.
What are the benefits of taking Fluconazole?
Fluconazole is a first-generation triazole-based medicine for infection treatment. The following are a few reasons to use it for treatment of skin infections:
High bioavailability
Whether you use oral, topical, or intravenous Fluconazole, it gets easily absorbed by your body. Higher absorption leads to more concentration of Fluconazole in the bloodstream, improving its efficacy. Therefore, the high bioavailability of this fungal infection treatment makes it the most preferred one.
Long-lasting effect
Fluconazole has a half-life of 30 hours, meaning it takes 30 hours for the efficacy of this antifungal treatment to be reduced by half. Therefore, doctors often prescribe it only once a day to treat severe infections.
Available in diverse forms
Fluconazole is available in oral, topical, and intravenous forms. However, the most common form is oral tablets or suspension. Some doctors might prescribe the intravenous form when the patient is hospitalized.
Targeting wide-spectrum fungal infections
Fluconazole effectively treats superficial infections on the first layer of the skin and systemic infections that penetrate the deeper layer. While Fluconazole is widely used for treating fungal infections of the skin, it has a similar impact on oral, vaginal, and nail infections.
Rising demand for Fluconazole fungal infection treatment
The mortality rate of fungal infections ranges from 62% to 68%. The growing pollution isn’t helping to reduce the spread of infection. Therefore, the demand for Fluconazole is rising at a tremendous rate.
According to a market report, the global Fluconazole market values $2.5 billion in 2024 and will grow at a 6.0% CAGR from 2026 to 2033 and reach $4.1 billion by 2033.
Therefore, if you are a pharma company looking to expand your products, you should consider Fluconazole. It has global demand and can be easily developed using high-quality Fluconazole API.

FAQ
Is it safe to take Fluconazole while breastfeeding?
Taking a small dosage of Fluconazole is safe for breastfeeding mothers. That’s because the concentration of the medicine in the milk is much less than the ideal neonatal dosage of Fluconazole. Thus, you can use it for a short period while breastfeeding. However, if you need to use it for an extended period, you should consult your doctor for the exact dosage and guidance.
What infections does Fluconazole cure?
Fluconazole can cure superficial and systemic infections. This anti fungal treatment is used to cure skin infections, oral thrush, vaginal yeast infection, and cryptococcal meningitis. The 30 half-life of this drug makes it an effective treatment option for mild and severe infections as well.
