For how long do I need to take Itrabat 100 Tablet?
The dose and length of treatment depends on the type and site of infection and your response to the treatment.

I am taking Itrabat 100 Tablet for nail infection but there does not seem to be any improvement. Can I stop taking it?
No, you should not stop taking Itrabat 100 Tablet without completing the entire course because doing so may not completely cure the fungal infection. It usually takes about 6-9 months for nail lesions to disappear because after the medicine eliminates the fungus, the new nail takes several months to grow.

Why has my doctor asked me to get blood tests done?
