As the fungal infection improves, symptoms gradually become less severe and recovery can begin.

Why is Micanfa 50mg Injection given by a doctor?

Micanfa 50mg Injection is administered as an intravenous infusion directly into a vein and should only be given by a doctor. Proper administration helps ensure the medicine is delivered safely and allows your doctor to monitor your response and manage any side effects that may occur during treatment.

Why are liver function tests monitored during treatment?

These tests help assess how your liver is responding to treatment and allow early detection of any treatment-related changes. Monitoring helps ensure the medicine is being used as safely as possible.
