This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the cream. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.

How Itchmosol Cream works

Itchmosol Cream is a combination of two medicines: Clobetasol and Miconazole, which treats skin infections. Clobetasol is a steroid medicine. It blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Miconazole is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering.

Dear sir please elaborate your symptoms, history, treatment and investigations done.

Hello, I work in a very sweaty environment, I recently had a ringworm outbreak, I used EBERNET and it worked perfectly fine for me, On the recommendation of a few friends who suggested to use anti-fungal soap for a few days to ensure that the spores are completely eliminated from my body. Are there any effective anti-fungal soaps or shampoos that I can use to treat ringworm infection? Is there a method to determine if my scalp is affected by ringworm's? If I do happen to have this, What should be my next set of actions to treat ringworm's on scalp, before visiting a hospital/clinic? Regards, PATIENT

FAQs

What precautions should be taken while using Itchmosol Cream?

Itchmosol Cream should not be used on the face and contact with eyes should be avoided. Do not apply a bandage or dressing to the area being treated, as this will increase absorption of the medicine and increase the risk of side-effects. This medicine should only be used for the condition it is prescribed for. Do not use it for any other condition without consulting your doctor. Do not give it to other people even if their condition appears to be the same.

Can I stop taking Itchmosol Cream when my symptoms are relieved?

No, do not stop using Itchmosol Cream and complete the full course of treatment even if you feel better. Your symptoms may improve before the infection is completely cured.

How to use Itchmosol Cream?

Itchmosol Cream should be used as advised by the doctor or as per the instructions on the label of the medicine. Apply a thin layer of Itchmosol Cream two or three times a day, as suggested to cover the affected areas. The dose would depend on the condition for which it is prescribed. Wash your hands after using Itchmosol Cream, unless it is used for treating infection of the hands. Avoid any contact with the eyes.

What would happen if I use a higher than the recommended dose of Itchmosol Cream for long periods?

The dose and duration of using Itchmosol Cream should be strictly according to the doctor’s advice. Using it in higher doses and for longer periods can cause a change in color at the site of application. Veins beneath the skin become visible because of the thinning and weakening of the skin. There could be an increased hair growth. The medicine may get absorbed into the blood circulation and can cause weight gain, high blood pressure and rounding of the face. If you experience an increased severity of your symptoms, please consult your doctor for re-evaluation.

What are the instructions for the storage and disposal of Itchmosol Cream?

Keep this medicine in the packet or the container it came in, tightly closed. Store it according to the instructions mentioned on the pack or label. Dispose of the unused medicine. Make sure it is not consumed by pets, children and other people.

What are the contraindications associated with the use of Itchmosol Cream?

Use of Itchmosol Cream is considered to be harmful for patients with known allergy to any of the components or excipients of this medicine.

Consult your doctor before using it for any condition.
