Lucon Capsule 150 mg contains Fluconazole, a broad-spectrum triazole antifungal medicine used for the treatment of various fungal and yeast infections. It is commonly prescribed for single-dose or short-course therapy, especially in vaginal yeast infections and certain mucosal fungal infections.

Fluconazole works by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of the fungal cell membrane. By blocking ergosterol production, it weakens the fungal cell structure, prevents growth, and helps eliminate the infection effectively.

Lucon Capsule 150 mg is widely used for vulvovaginal candidiasis and other Candida-related infections, and it may also be used in oral or systemic fungal infections under medical supervision.
