How to Consume
Guficap Plus 70mg injection will be administered to you by a healthcare professional in a hospital setting. It is usually administered in a vein (intravenous).
Benefits
Guficap Plus 70Mg Injection contains Caspofungin, which inhibits the formation of a fungal cell wall component required for the fungus to continue living and growing. When fungal cells are exposed to Caspofungin, their cell walls become partial or faulty, making them fragile and unable to grow. As a result, fungal cells get killed, or their growth is minimized.
