What is Luliconazole Cream 1.0% w/w?

Luliconazole Cream 1.0% w/w is a topical antifungal agent used to treat skin infections caused by fungi.

Uses of LONICAZOLE 50

Luliconazole Cream 1.0% w/w is indicated for the treatment of various dermatophytic infections. The main conditions it treats include:

Luliconazole helps alleviate the itching, burning, and cracking associated with athlete's foot.
