Composition

Luliconazole (1 %)

Lucrush Cream is primarily used for managing superficial skin infections caused by fungi, particularly dermatophytes. This medicine belongs to the category of antifungal creams.

In addition to managing skin infections, it is particularly effective against conditions such as Tinea pedis (athlete's foot), Tinea cruris (jock itch), and Tinea corporis (ringworm). These conditions are often caused by fungi like Trichophyton rubrum and Epidermophyton floccosum, which the cream can actively combat.

Before you start applying this cream, make sure to consult your doctor who will guide you on the correct dosage and frequency. It's also essential to inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications that you're taking. If you notice any side effects while using this cream, notify your doctor immediately. Remember to continue using the cream for the duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Directions for Use of Lucrush Cream 50gm

To use Lucrush Cream effectively, follow these steps:

Ensure the affected skin area is clean and dry before application.
Gently apply the cream in a thin layer to the affected area.
Massage the cream gently until it is absorbed into the skin.
Always wash your hands after application to avoid spreading the infection.
For specific advice on how often and how long to use the cream, consult your doctor.

Lucrush Cream is applied topically.

While Lucrush Cream is generally well-tolerated, you may experience some common side effects. These could include:

Redness
Dryness
Itching
Burning sensation: A feeling of mild heat or discomfort might occur at the application site.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Lucrush Cream. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Burning sensation: If you experience a burning sensation post-application, try applying Lucrush Cream at bedtime. This will minimise daytime discomfort.

Lucrush Cream contains Luliconazole (1 %) as its active ingredient. Here's how it works:

Inhibition of Ergosterol Synthesis: Luliconazole inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol, which is a crucial component of the fungal cell membrane.
Disruption of Fungal Cell Membrane: By inhibiting ergosterol synthesis, luliconazole disrupts the integrity of the fungal cell membrane. This action leads to the death of fungal cells, thereby managing the infection effectively.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while applying Lucrush Cream if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Breastfeeding

If you are breastfeeding, you should use Lucrush Cream only under medical supervision.

Alcohol

As Lucrush Cream is a topical medication, interactions with alcohol are unlikely to occur. However, always inform your doctor about any alcohol consumption.

Liver

The use of Lucrush Cream does not typically affect liver function as it is used externally, but if you have any liver health concerns, discuss them with your doctor.

Kidney

Lucrush Cream does not normally interact with kidney function because it's applied on the skin. Nonetheless, if you have kidney problems, it's wise to consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

There are no known effects of Lucrush Cream on your ability to drive or operate machinery.

Allergy

Avoid using Lucrush Cream if you are allergic to luliconazole or any other components of the cream. In case of an allergic reaction, seek immediate medical help.

Children

The safety and effectiveness of Lucrush Cream in children under 18 years of age have not been established. Always consult your doctor before applying this medicine for a child.

Older Patients

Older patients can use Lucrush Cream under medical supervision as they may be more susceptible to skin reactions. Caution is advised if patients are above 70 years of age as they might also have liver and kidney issues and might be on other medication. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Lucrush Cream interacts with the following medicines:

Antifungal Medications: Medicines like ketoconazole or fluconazole, when used concurrently with Lucrush Cream, might diminish the antifungal effect of each other due to a similar mechanism of action. As Lucrush Cream is applied topically, it has minimal systemic absorption and therefore a low potential for significant medicine interactions.

Drug-Food Interactions

Lucrush Cream does not have any known interactions with food. Since it's a topical medication, it's unlikely to interact with substances consumed orally.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Lucrush Cream interacts with the following diseases:

Allergic Disorders: If you have a history of allergic reactions to antifungal medications, careful use of Lucrush Cream is advised because it can potentially trigger similar reactions.
Dermatological Conditions: If you have cuts, sores or broken skin on the affected area, applying Lucrush Cream may cause burning sensation or irritation.

Again, as Lucrush Cream is a topical medication, its interaction potential with systemic diseases is low.

Daily Dose

The daily application of Lucrush Cream should be as recommended by your doctor. This might vary depending on the severity of your skin condition and how well it responds to the medication. Always adhere to the prescribed dosage and do not alter it without your doctor's approval.

Over Dose

Applying more Lucrush Cream than directed by your doctor might lead to some discomfort at the application site, such as redness or a burning sensation. If you've accidentally applied too much, gently clean the area with water. If discomfort persists, inform your doctor.

Missed Dose

If you forget to apply Lucrush Cream at the usual time, do so as soon as you remember. However, if it's almost time for your next application, skip the missed one and continue with your normal schedule. Never apply extra cream to make up for a missed dose without consulting your doctor.

Store Lucrush Cream at room temperature, below 25°C.
Do not freeze the medicine.
Keep it away from direct sunlight and avoid areas with excessive moisture.
Ensure the cream is kept out of reach of children.

Maintain good personal hygiene. Regularly clean and dry the areas prone to fungal infections like feet, groin, and body folds to prevent recurrence of infections managed by Lucrush Cream.
Wear breathable fabrics. Clothes made from natural fibres like cotton allow your skin to breathe, reducing the chances of fungal growth.
