Luliderm Cream 40gm

Luliderm Cream is used for the following:

• Management of Tinea pedis, commonly known as athlete's foot

• Control of Tinea cruris, often referred to as jock itch

• Reduction of Tinea corporis, better known as ringworm

These conditions are all types of fungal skin infections caused by specific fungi, including Trichophyton rubrum and Epidermophyton floccosum.

To use Luliderm Cream effectively, follow these guidelines:

• Ensure your skin is clean and dry before application.

• Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area and a small margin of surrounding healthy skin.

• Gently rub in the cream until it is fully absorbed.

• Repeat this process as prescribed by your doctor.

• Always wash your hands both before and after applying the cream, unless your hands are the treatment area.

• Remember to avoid contact with your eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.

Remember to consult your doctor if you have specific questions or concerns about using this medicine.

Luliderm Cream is applied topically.

Luliderm Cream contains luliconazole (1 %), which works on the body in the following ways:

• Inhibits Ergosterol Synthesis: Luliconazole blocks the production of ergosterol, an important component of fungal cell walls. Ergosterol helps maintain the structure and function of the fungal cell membrane.

• Creates Holes in Fungal Cell Membranes: By blocking ergosterol synthesis, luliconazole causes holes to form in fungal cell membranes. This prevents essential substances from entering the cells and leads to leakage of cellular contents.

• Kills Fungal Cells: The disruption of cell membranes eventually results in the death of fungal cells. This clears up the infection effectively.

• Store Luliderm Cream in a cool, dry place at room temperature, ideally between 20°C and 25°C.

• Avoid exposure to moisture and direct sunlight.

• Keep the cream in its original packaging and ensure it's tightly sealed when not in use.

• Always keep Luliderm Cream out of reach of children.

• Check the expiry date before use and do not use if the product has expired.

• Since Luliderm Cream is used to manage fungal skin infections, maintaining good hygiene is crucial. Regularly wash your body and hands, particularly before applying the cream, to reduce the chance of further infections.

• Wear clean, dry clothes that allow your skin to breathe. This helps prevent a moist environment where fungus can thrive, especially if you are managing conditions like athlete's foot or jock itch.
