Your pet's medicine at a glance
Subavet-IT 50 Capsule is an antifungal medicine used in cats and dogs to treat various fungal infections, including dermatophytosis (ringworm). It works by interfering with the formation of the fungal cell membrane, which stops the growth of the fungus and helps clear the infection.
Subavet-IT 50 Capsule should be given exactly as prescribed by the veterinarian. Consider giving food to improve absorption and reduce stomach upset. Continue the treatment for the full prescribed duration, even if your pet’s symptoms improve earlier, as stopping too soon may cause the infection to return. Keeping your pet’s living area clean and disinfected and limiting contact with other animals during treatment. This will help prevent the spread of infection and support recovery.
Subavet-IT 50 Capsule may cause some side effects such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, or increased liver enzymes. These effects are usually temporary and go away once the body adjusts to the medicine. Contact your veterinarian if vomiting, loss of appetite, or tiredness persists or worsens, or if you notice signs of liver problems such as yellowing of the gums, eyes, or skin.
Subavet-IT 50 Capsule should be used with caution in pets with liver or heart disease, or those receiving other medicines that affect the liver. It should not be used in animals with a known hypersensitivity to itraconazole or other azole antifungal medicines. Always inform your veterinarian about any other medicines or supplements your pet is taking, as this medicine may interact with certain drugs. Regular veterinary monitoring is recommended to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the medicine.
