About Oxicojen 1%W/W Cream

Oxicojen 1%W/W Cream belongs to a class of drugs known as 'antifungals', primarily used to treat fungal infections of the skin like dry and flaky skin, thrush, dhobie itch, 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). 

Oxicojen 1%W/W Cream contains Oxiconazole, which is used to treat fungal skin infections. It works by causing holes in the fungal cell membranes and kills fungi. Fungal cell membranes are essential for fungus survival as they prevent the entry of unwanted substances into the cells and stop the leakage of cell contents. Thereby it clears the fungal infection. 

Take Oxicojen 1%W/W Cream as prescribed by your doctor. Depending upon your medical condition, you are advised to take Oxicojen 1%W/W Cream for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects, such as dry skin, skin irritation, burning sensation, blisters on the skin, and skin peeling. Most of these side effects of Oxicojen 1%W/W Cream do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

Do not use Oxicojen 1%W/W Cream if you are allergic to any component present in it. If you are pregnant or a nursing mother, it is advised to consult a doctor before using the Oxicojen 1%W/W Cream.
