Whats That
Clofaz 50mg Capsule is used to treat Leprosy (infectious disease-causing skin lesions and nerve damage). Leprosy, commonly known as Hansen's disease, is caused by Mycobacterium leprae, which is a chronic infectious disease. The illness mostly affects the skin, peripheral nerves, mucosal surfaces of the upper respiratory system, and the eyes. Leprosy can affect anyone at any age, from infancy to old age.
Clofazimine is the active component in Clofaz 50mg Capsule. It works by inhibiting the growth of disease-causing organisms (Mycobacterium) in the body. Thus, Clofaz 50mg Capsule aids in the treatment of Leprosy.
Take Clofaz 50mg Capsule daily at the same time to ensure better efficacy. The dose and duration of Clofaz 50mg Capsule can vary depending on your condition and the severity of the infection. In some situations, you may experience symptoms such as stomach and epigastric pain, diarrhoea, nausea, and vomiting. These negative impacts do not necessitate medical treatment and will gradually subside. However, if you are experiencing these undesirable effects frequently, you should consult your doctor.
Continue using Clofaz 50mg Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it to treat your illness effectively.
