Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Trichophyton rubrum, Epidermophyton floccosum. Trichophyton interdigitale

In addition this cream has a very rapid alleviating effect on the pruritis which frequently accompanies infection.

miconazole.

DOSAGE AND DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
For external use only.

Miconazole Nitrate Cream should be applied to the lesions twice daily and thoroughly rubbed into the skin.

When all lesions have disappeared (usually after 2 to 5 weeks), treatment should be continued for a further

10 to 14 days to prevent relapse.

SIDE EFFECTS AND SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS:
Miconazole Nitrate Cream is excellently tolerated and leaves no stain on skin or clothes. Minimal absorption

of the active ingredient takes place through the skin and systemic side-effects are therefore most unlikely

to arise.Local irritation and sensitivity reactions may occur with DAKTARIN cream.
Drug interaction
Systemic absorption of miconazole, although low after topical administration, may potentiate the activity of

warfarin.

KNOWN SYMPTOMS OF OVERDOSAGE AND PARTICULARS OF ITS TREATMENT:
Poisoning or overdosage is unlikely to occur owing to the limited extent to which miconazole nitrate is

absorbed. If it does occur treatment should be along conventional lines.

STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS:
Store in a cool and dry place between 15-30°C . Protect from light.
