Fungicort

For external use only. Wash and dry the affected area thoroughly before application. Apply a thin layer of cream to the affected skin area and gently rub it in. Wash hands immediately after application. Do not cover the treated area with occlusive dressings unless advised by a doctor.

Clotrimazole works by inhibiting the biosynthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of the fungal cell membrane, leading to increased permeability and eventual cell death. Betamethasone Dipropionate is a potent corticosteroid that provides anti-inflammatory, antipruritic, and vasoconstrictive actions, reducing swelling, redness, and itching.

• Hypersensitivity to Clotrimazole, Betamethasone, or any component of the cream
• Viral skin infections (e.g., herpes simplex, varicella)
• Tuberculosis of the skin
• Acne vulgaris, rosacea, perioral dermatitis
• Vaccinia, syphilitic skin lesions

Store in a cool, dry place below 30°C. Protect from light. Do not freeze. Keep out of reach of children.

Excessive or prolonged use of Fungicort-1-01-cream may lead to local side effects such as skin atrophy, striae, or rarely, systemic corticosteroid effects (e.g., Cushing's syndrome, adrenal suppression). In case of accidental ingestion, seek immediate medical attention. Management is symptomatic and supportive.

Use with caution during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Avoid prolonged use or application to large body areas. Consult your doctor. It is unknown if topical Clotrimazole and Betamethasone are excreted in breast milk; use with caution in nursing mothers.
