About Voriways Tablet
Voriways Tablet is used to treat a broad range of infections caused by fungi and yeast. A fungal infection is caused when a fungus invades and affects any part of the body, including the mouth, throat, oesophagus, lungs, bladder, genital area and blood.
Voriways Tablet contains ‘Voriconazole’ that kills or prevents fungi or yeast by inhibiting an enzyme in fungi which interferes with the fungal cell membrane's formation.
In some cases, you may experience common side effects such as vomiting, headache, nausea, abnormal liver function tests, rash, slow heart rate, and altered vision. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention. However, talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Do not take Voriways Tablet if you have had an allergic reaction to Voriways Tablet or any of its ingredients. Voriways Tablet is associated with liver toxicity, including fatalities in patients with other serious underlying diseases. Voriways Tablet is a pregnancy category D drug, so it should not be taken by breastfeeding or pregnant women. Antacid should be taken at 2 hours after taking Voriways Tablet.
