Itraconazole Dusting Powder: Itraconazole is an antifungal drug that is prescribed for many fungal infections. This type of infection may affect your nails, skin, mouth, throat, or lungs. The drug works by inhibiting the growth of fungi, which leads to resolution of the infection and the prevention of its spread.

For optimal results, Itraconazole must be taken as instructed by the health professional at the same time every day.
