Mycota Cream 25g

Mycota Cream is an antifungal medication commonly used to treat fungal infections of the skin, such as athlete’s foot (tinea pedis), jock itch (tinea cruris), and ringworm (tinea corporis). Here are some key points about Mycota Cream:

Active Ingredients: Mycota Cream typically contains two active ingredients: zinc undecylenate and undecylenic acid. These ingredients have antifungal properties that help to treat and prevent fungal infections.

Mechanism of Action: Zinc undecylenate and undecylenic acid work by disrupting the cell membranes of fungi, which inhibits their growth and reproduction. This helps to eliminate the fungal infection and relieve symptoms such as itching, redness, and inflammation.

Dosage and Application: Mycota Cream is usually applied to the affected area of the skin two to three times daily, depending on the severity of the infection and the recommendation of a healthcare professional. It’s important to clean and dry the affected area before applying the cream.

Duration of Treatment: The duration of treatment with Mycota Cream may vary depending on the type and severity of the fungal infection. It’s important to continue using the cream for the full course of treatment as prescribed, even if symptoms improve before the infection is completely cleared.

Side Effects: Common side effects of Mycota Cream may include mild skin irritation, burning, itching, or redness at the site of application. These side effects are usually temporary and mild. However, if they persist or worsen, medical attention may be needed.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: The safety of Mycota Cream during pregnancy and breastfeeding has not been established. It’s important to consult a healthcare professional before using this medication if pregnant or breastfeeding.

As with any medication, it’s important to use Mycota Cream according to the instructions provided by a healthcare professional and to follow any additional guidance or precautions given. If symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment, it’s important to seek further medical advice.
