About LzHH Cream

LzHH Cream belongs to a class of drugs called antifungals primarily used to treat fungal infections of the skin like ringworm, jock itch, and athlete’s foot. Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus attacks the tissue and causes infection. Fungal infections may be contagious (spread from one person to another). Ringworm is a common fungal infection of the skin that is contagious and causes a rash resembling worm in a ring shape. Jock itch causes an itchy, red rash in the groin, buttocks, and inner thighs. Athlete’s foot usually starts between the toes and causes itching, burning, or stinging sensation due to a scaly rash.

LzHH Cream contains Luliconazole, an antifungal that works by causing holes in the fungal cell membranes that are essential for their survival as they prevent the entry of unwanted substances into the cells and stop the leakage of cell contents. Thus, it kills fungi and clears the infection.

LzHH Cream is only for external use. Take a small amount of LzHH Cream on the finger and apply it as a thin layer on the clean and dry affected area. Avoid contact of LzHH Cream with nose, mouth, eyes, or vagina. In case LzHH Cream comes in contact with these areas accidentally, rinse with water thoroughly. Some people may experience redness, swelling, irritation, or burning sensation of skin at the site of application. Most of these side effects of LzHH Cream do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to LzHH Cream or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or a nursing mother, it is advised to consult a doctor before using LzHH Cream. LzHH Cream is not recommended for children below 12 years to treat athlete’s foot or jock itch but may be used in children above 2 years to treat ringworm if prescribed by a doctor. If you have any allergies to preservatives, foods, or dyes, inform your doctor before taking LzHH Cream.
