1 What Lozanoc is and
what it is used for
Lozanoc belongs to a group of medicines
called antimycotics for systemic use, also
called anti-fungal medicines.
Lozanoc is used to treat fungal infections,
including those caused by yeasts. These
infections may affect:
• the skin
• the lungs
• the nails
• internal organs
2 What you need to

➢ Check with your doctor if you think
either of these applies to you.
Warnings and precautions
Tell your doctor before you start to take
Lozanoc:
• if you have, or have had, a problem
with your liver. If your doctor decides to

to be adjusted. You will also need to
look out for symptoms that may appear

more information. If you take Lozanoc

your kidneys. If your doctor decides to

of these or if you are not sure.
Lozanoc with food and drink
Lozanoc capsules may be taken with
or without food (although you may have
previously been told you should take other
anti-fungal medicines after a full meal).
Pregnancy and breast-feeding
Don’t take Lozanoc if you are pregnant
Tell your doctor and don’t take
Lozanoc if you are pregnant, if you
think you may be pregnant or if you are
planning to have a baby.
If you could become pregnant, use
reliable contraception (birth control)
while you are taking Lozanoc. After you
have finished your course of Lozanoc,
carry on using reliable contraception
until after your next menstrual period.
If you are breast-feeding
➢ Ask your doctor before you take
Lozanoc. Small amounts of the
medicine can pass into breast milk.
Children and older people
Lozanoc is not recommended for children
or older people unless the potential
benefits outweigh the risks.
Driving and using machines
Taking Lozanoc will not usually affect
your ability to drive or use machines. But,
very rarely, Lozanoc can cause dizziness,
ringing in the ears (tinnitus) and hearing
loss. Don’t drive or use machines unless
you are feeling well.
3 How to take Lozanoc
Always take Lozanoc exactly as your
doctor has told you to. Check with your
doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.
Swallow the capsules with water. Lozanoc
can be taken with or without food.
How much to take
Lozanoc capsules give you twice as much
of the active medicine, itraconazole, as
other anti-fungal capsules you may have
taken before. So a 50 mg capsule
of Lozanoc gives you as much medicine
as other brands of 100 mg itraconazole
capsule.
TURN OVER
What to expect from Lozanoc
treatment
Don’t worry if you don’t see an immediate
improvement after your treatment.
• With skin infections, the marks or
spots (lesions) typically disappear a
few weeks after you finish the course.
Although the medicine kills the fungus,
the marks don’t disappear until after
new skin has grown.
• With nail infections, marks on the nail
may take 6 to 9 months to disappear,
because new nail needs to grow.
➢ Ask your doctor or pharmacist if
you’re not sure whether the treatment
is working.
Type of infection
If you take more Lozanoc than
you should
Contact your nearest hospital
Emergency department or your
doctor immediately:
• if you (or someone else) swallow a lot of
Lozanoc capsules
• if you think a child has swallowed any
Lozanoc capsules.
Take this leaflet, any remaining
capsules and the container with you to
the hospital or doctor, so they know what
medicine was swallowed.
If you forget to take Lozanoc
If you forget to take a dose, take the next
dose as usual. Then continue with the
course until all the capsules are finished.
Don’t take a double dose to make up for a
missed dose.
If you stop taking Lozanoc
If you stop taking Lozanoc before you
have finished all the capsules in your
course, your infection may not be fully
treated and may come back.
Don’t stop until you have finished the
course, even if you feel better.
