Composition

• Miconazole Nitrate 2% w/w per 15 g cream

Indications

Micoderm Cream 2% w/w is indicated for:

• Tinea infections of the skin (tinea corporis, tinea cruris, tinea pedis)

• Candidal skin infections

• Intertrigo (fungal infection in skin folds)

• Prevention of secondary fungal infections in susceptible areas

The cream is suitable for use in adults and children, under proper medical supervision, and provides rapid relief from discomfort caused by fungal skin infections.

Mechanism of Action

Miconazole Nitrate is an imidazole antifungal that works by inhibiting ergosterol synthesis, an essential component of the fungal cell membrane. Without ergosterol, the fungal cell membrane becomes weak and porous, causing leakage of cellular contents and ultimately cell death.

Topical application delivers high concentrations directly to the affected area, providing effective localized antifungal action while minimizing systemic absorption and side effects.

Dosage and Administration

• Clean and dry the affected area before application.

• Apply a thin layer of Micoderm Cream twice daily (morning and evening) or as prescribed by a healthcare provider.

• Gently rub the cream into the skin until fully absorbed.

• Continue the treatment for the full duration recommended, usually 2–4 weeks, even if symptoms improve earlier.

Avoid covering the area with airtight dressings unless advised by a doctor, as proper air circulation enhances healing.

Benefits

• Effectively treats fungal skin infections

• Relieves itching, redness, and irritation

• Reduces inflammation and discomfort
