Lamifin Cream

Lamifin Cream is a topical antifungal treatment that contains Terbinafine (1% w/w) as its active ingredient. It is used to treat various fungal infections affecting the skin. Lamifin Cream effectively targets and combats the root cause of fungal skin conditions, providing relief from symptoms such as itching, burning, and inflammation. It is a reliable solution for those suffering from skin fungal infections, ensuring faster healing and improved comfort.

Uses of Lamifin Cream

Lamifin Cream is primarily used to treat a wide range of fungal skin infections, including:

• Ringworm (Tinea corporis)
• Athlete's foot (Tinea pedis)
• Jock itch (Tinea cruris)
• Fungal infections of the nails
• Cutaneous candidiasis

How Lamifin Cream works

Lamifin Cream works by inhibiting the growth of the fungi responsible for skin infections. Its active ingredient, Terbinafine, interferes with the production of ergosterol, an essential component of the fungal cell membrane, ultimately leading to the destruction of the fungus.

Benefits of Lamifin Cream

• Provides quick relief from itching and irritation caused by fungal infections.
• Targets the root cause of the infection for effective long-term results.
• Easy to apply, non-greasy formulation.
• Helps reduce inflammation and redness of the affected area.
• Suitable for use on various skin types and fungal conditions.

How to take Lamifin Cream

For best results, apply Lamifin Cream to the affected area once or twice daily as directed by your healthcare provider. Gently rub a thin layer onto clean, dry skin. Continue using the cream for the full duration of the treatment, even if symptoms improve, to prevent the recurrence of the infection.

Side effects of Lamifin Cream

While Lamifin Cream is generally well-tolerated, some users may experience mild side effects. These may include:

• Skin irritation or redness
• Itching or burning sensation at the application site
• Dry skin

If you experience severe reactions such as blistering, swelling, or difficulty breathing, stop using the cream immediately and seek medical attention.
