Description
Daktacort Cream contains a combination of miconazole nitrate and hydrocortisone. Miconazole nitrate is an antifungal that works by destroying the fungus causing the infection and some associated bacteria. Hydrocortisone is a mild corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, swelling, redness, and itching. This cream is used to treat inflamed skin conditions such as eczema and dermatitis, which may be caused by fungal or bacterial infections.

Do not cover the treated area with a bandage or dressing unless instructed by your doctor. Wash your hands thoroughly after applying the cream.
