6. Put the tip of the syringe into the mouth and point towards the inside of the cheek. SLOWLY push down the plunger of the syringe. Do not squirt the suspension out quickly.

If the medicine is to be given to a child, make sure the child is sitting or is held upright.
7. Replace the bottle cap.

Cleaning and storing the syringe:
1. The syringe should be rinsed after each dose. Pull the plunger out of the syringe and wash both parts by holding under warm running water.

2. Dry the two parts. Push the plunger back into the syringe. Keep it in a clean safe place with the medicine.

VFEND IV
VFEND IV is given as an injection by a doctor or trained nurse.
VFEND IV is a powder which is mixed with Water for Injections and then diluted by your pharmacist or doctor. It is then given by injection into a vein.
When to take it
Take your medicine regularly at about the same time each day.
Taking it at the same time each day will have the best effect. It will also help you remember when to take it.
How long to take it
The length of time you take VFEND will depend on the type of infection you have.
If you have a weakened immune system or a difficult infection, you may need long-term treatment to prevent the infection from returning.
You may be switched from the injection to VFEND Tablets or Oral Suspension once your condition improves.
Continue taking VFEND for as long as your doctor or pharmacist recommends. Do not stop taking VFEND because you are feeling better.
If you do not complete the full course prescribed by your doctor, the infection may not clear completely or your symptoms may return.
If you forget to take it
If you forget to take one dose, skip the dose you missed and take your next dose when you are meant to. Do not take a double dose to make up for the dose that you missed.
This may increase the chance of you getting an unwanted side effect.
If you are not sure what to do, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
If you have trouble remembering to take your medicine, ask your pharmacist for some hints.
VFEND IV will be given to you under close medical supervision. It is unlikely that a dose would be missed.
However, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you think that a dose has been forgotten.
If you take too much (overdose)
Immediately telephone your doctor or Poisons Information Centre (Phone Australia 13 11 26 or New Zealand 0800 POISON or 0800 764 766) for advice or go to Accident and Emergency at your nearest hospital, if you think you or anyone else may have taken too much VFEND. Do this even if there are no signs of discomfort or poisoning.
You may need urgent medical attention.
Symptoms of an overdose may include upset stomach, diarrhoea, headache and sensitivity to light.
While you are using VFEND
Things you must do
Tell your doctor immediately if you develop a rash or blisters while taking VFEND.
If this rash worsens, VFEND may need to be stopped.
Avoid going out in the sun for long periods of time while you are taking VFEND.
VFEND can cause sensitivity to light.
Tell your doctor if you notice any changes to your skin while you are taking Vfend.
If the symptoms of your infection do not improve within a few days, or if they become worse, tell your doctor.
Make sure you follow your doctor's instructions and keep all appointments, including blood tests.
Your doctor should monitor the function of your liver and kidneys using blood tests. If you have liver disease, your doctor might lower your dose of VFEND or stop your VFEND treat
