Clozole H Cream

Clozole H Cream contains the active ingredient Clotrimazole, which is an antifungal medication used topically to treat various fungal infections of the skin.

Active Ingredient:

Clotrimazole: This medication belongs to the class of azole antifungals. It works by disrupting the cell membrane of fungal cells, leading to their death and eventual elimination.

Uses:

Clozole H Cream is indicated for the treatment of fungal skin infections, including:

• Athlete’s foot (tinea pedis)
• Jock itch (tinea cruris)
• Ringworm (tinea corporis)
• Yeast infections (candidiasis)
• Other fungal infections of the skin

Mechanism of Action:

Clotrimazole exerts its antifungal effects by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of the fungal cell membrane. This disrupts the integrity of the cell membrane, causing leakage of intracellular contents and ultimately leading to fungal cell death.

Administration:

Apply a thin layer of Clozole H Cream to the affected area(s) of the skin, typically 2-3 times daily, or as directed by a healthcare professional. Wash your hands before and after application, and ensure the affected area is clean and dry before applying the cream.

Side Effects:

Common side effects of Clozole H Cream may include:

• Skin irritation or burning sensation at the application site
• Itching or redness
• Rash or allergic reactions (rare)

Precautions:

• Avoid contact with the eyes, nose, mouth, or other mucous membranes while applying Clozole H Cream.
• Do not use this cream on broken or irritated skin unless directed by a healthcare professional.
• If irritation or sensitization occurs, discontinue use and consult your doctor.

When Not to Use:

Clozole H Cream is contraindicated in individuals with a known hypersensitivity to clotrimazole or any components of the cream. It should not be used in cases of bacterial or viral skin infections.
