ITZISHTA contains itraconazole capsules 100 mg, an antifungal medication used for the treatment of fungal infections affecting the skin, claws, bones, respiratory tract, and central nervous system in dogs. These itraconazole tablets for fungal infections are effective only against fungal pathogens and should not be used for infections caused by bacteria, parasites, or viruses.

When administered as prescribed, the medication reaches therapeutic concentrations that help eliminate the infective fungus and prevent further progression of the disease.

The itraconazole dog dosage should always be determined by a veterinarian based on the dog's weight, infection severity, and clinical response. Widely prescribed by veterinarians, itraconazole tablets for dogs in India are an important part of long-term fungal infection management when used under proper veterinary supervision.
