Fungal Infection

How it works

The mechanism of action of voriconazole is inhibition of cytochrome P450 (CYP 450)–dependent 14a-lanosterol demethylation, which is a vital step in cell membrane ergosterol synthesis by fungi. For yeasts, voriconazole appears to be fungistatic, as are other azoles.

If you get visual disturbances these usually get better over a few days or weeks and do not damage your eyes.
