Therapeutic indications

Treatment of athlete’s foot.

The preparation is not for vaginal use.

Posology and method of administration

The cream should be thinly applied and rubbed into the affected areas once daily, preferably at night before retiring, for two to three weeks.

The affected areas should be washed and dried thoroughly before the cream is applied.

A physician or pharmacist should be consulted if symptoms do not improve within seven days.

Overdose

No risk of acute intoxication is seen as it is unlikely to occur following a single dermal application of an overdose (application over a large area under conditions favorable to absorption) or inadvertent oral ingestion.

However, in the event of accidental oral ingestion, routine measures such as gastric lavage should be performed only if clinical symptoms of overdose become apparent (e.g. dizziness, nausea or vomiting). Gastric lavage should be carried out only if the airway can be protected adequately.

60 months.

Special precautions for storage

None.
