About BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM

BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM is a dermatological combination medication used to reduce swelling, itching and redness caused due to certain fungal skin infections. Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus attacks the skin tissue and causes infection. Fungal infections may be contagious (spread from one person to another).

BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM contains Nadifloxacin (antibiotics), Mometasone (corticosteroid) and Miconazole (antifungal). Nadifoxacin is bactericidal and works by killing bacteria that cause infections. It inhibits the repairing of bacterial cells and kills the bacteria, thereby preventing the infection's further spread. Mometasone blocks various chemical messengers (like histamine) involved in allergic and non-allergic mediated inflammation. It reduces inflammation, itchiness and redness by preventing infection-fighting white blood cells (WBCs) from travelling to the affected area of your body. Miconazole belongs to the antifungals class that works by causing holes in the fungal cell membranes and killing fungi.

BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM is only for external use. Some people may experience dry skin, itching, irritation, redness or burning sensation at the application site. Most of these side effects of BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM 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 known to be allergic to BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM 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 the BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM. Do not use BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM in more than prescribed doses or for prolonged periods as it may cause adverse effects. Do not wrap or cover the treated area with bandages unless your doctor advises. Avoid using BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM for more than five days in children and on the face. Do not apply BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM to broken skin or cuts. Do not swallow BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM. In case of accidental swallowing, contact a nearby poison control centre or consult a doctor immediately. Avoid smoking or going near naked flames, as this medicine catches fire and burns easily. If you have glaucoma, cataracts, diabetes, psoriasis, adrenal gland or liver problems, inform your doctor before taking BACTIMAX CREAM 7.5GM.
