WHAT MYCAMINE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Mycamine contains the active substance micafungin. Mycamine is called
an antifungal medicine
because it is used to treat infections caused by fungal cells.
Mycamine is used to treat fungal infections caused by fungal or yeast
cells called Candida_._ Mycamine
is effective in treating systemic infections (those that have
penetrated within the body). It interferes
with the production of a part of the fungal cell wall. An intact cell
wall is necessary for the fungus to
continue living and growing. Mycamine causes defects in the fungal
cell wall, making the fungus
unable to live and grow.
Your doctor has prescribed Mycamine for you in the following
circumstances when there are no other
suitable antifungal treatments available (see section 2):
•
To treat adults, adolescents and children including neonates who have
a serious fungal infection
called invasive candidiasis (infection that has penetrated the body).
•
To treat adults and
adolescents ≥
16 years of age who have a fungal infection in the gullet
(oesophagus) where treatment into a vein (intravenous) is appropriate.
•
To prevent infection with Candida in patients who are having a
bone-marrow tr
