Diflu Suspension 50 mg/5 ml contains Fluconazole 50 mg per 5 ml, a broad-spectrum triazole antifungal medicine used to treat and prevent a wide range of fungal and yeast infections. It is effective against infections caused by Candida and Cryptococcus species and is commonly prescribed for infants, children, and adults who require a liquid dosage form. The oral suspension is particularly useful for patients who have difficulty swallowing capsules or tablets.

Diflu Suspension is indicated for the treatment of oral thrush (oropharyngeal candidiasis), esophageal candidiasis, systemic candidiasis, urinary tract fungal infections, cryptococcal infections, and other susceptible fungal infections. It may also be used to prevent fungal infections in patients with weakened immune systems, such as those receiving chemotherapy or immunosuppressive therapy.

With excellent oral absorption and extensive distribution throughout the body, Fluconazole provides effective antifungal treatment with the convenience of once-daily dosing for many conditions. Diflu Suspension should always be used according to the advice of a qualified healthcare professional.

Composition

Each 5 ml of oral suspension contains:

• Fluconazole 50 mg

How Diflu Suspension Works

Fluconazole belongs to the azole antifungal class of medicines. It works by inhibiting the fungal enzyme 14-alpha-demethylase, which is essential for the synthesis of ergosterol, a key component of the fungal cell membrane.

By disrupting ergosterol production, Fluconazole weakens the fungal cell membrane, preventing fungal cells from growing and multiplying. This action effectively eliminates susceptible fungi while having minimal effects on human cells.
