About this product

Overview

Acort Cream is a combination medication containing Isoconazole & Difluocortolone as its active ingredients. Isoconazole is an antifungal agent used to treat fungal infections of the skin, such as athlete’s foot, ringworm, and jock itch. Difluocortolone is a corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation and itching associated with various skin conditions. Together, they provide relief from fungal infections and associated symptoms.

Uses

Acort Cream is indicated for:

  • Fungal Skin Infections: Used to treat fungal infections of the skin caused by dermatophytes, yeasts, and other fungi, including tinea corporis (ringworm), tinea cruris (jock itch), and tinea pedis (athlete’s foot).
  • Inflammatory Skin Conditions: Provides relief from inflammation, redness, itching, and swelling associated with fungal infections or other inflammatory skin conditions.

Side Effects

While generally well-tolerated, Acort Cream may lead to some side effects, including:

  • Burning or stinging sensation at the application site.
  • Skin irritation or redness.
  • Dryness or peeling of the skin.
  • Allergic reactions (rare).

Precautions

Before using Acort Cream, it’s essential to consider the following precautions:

  • Allergy: Discontinue use and seek medical attention if an allergic reaction occurs, such as rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing.
  • Long-term Use: Avoid prolonged use of corticosteroids on large areas of the skin, as it may lead to systemic absorption and adverse effects.
  • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Use under medical supervision during pregnancy or breastfeeding, as the safety of Acort Cream in pregnant or nursing women has not been established.

When Not to Use

Avoid using Acort Cream if you:

  • Are allergic to isoconazole, difluocortolone, or any other ingredients in the cream.
  • Have viral, bacterial, or parasitic skin infections, unless specifically indicated by your healthcare provider.

Wash and dry the affected area before applying a thin layer of the cream, rubbing it gently until absorbed. Apply twice daily or as directed by your healthcare provider.
