Composition

Luliconazole (1 %)

Lulitec Cream is primarily used to manage various fungal skin infections in adults. This medication belongs to the imidazole class of antifungals, a group of medicines known for their potent activity against fungal pathogens.

In addition to managing common fungal skin infections, this is particularly effective against certain types of dermatophyte infections, such as tinea pedis (athlete's foot), tinea cruris (jock itch), and tinea corporis (ringworm). These are superficial fungal infections that typically affect the outer layers of the skin.

You should apply this medicine as directed by your doctor. Before starting this medication, it's crucial that you inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions you may have or any other medications you may be currently using. If you experience any side effects while using this cream, inform your doctor without delay. Remember to continue using the cream for the full duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Directions for Use of Lulitec Cream 10gm

Please follow these instructions while taking Lulitec Cream:

Ensure your skin is clean and dry before application.
Use your fingertip or a clean cotton swab to apply the cream.
Apply a thin layer over the affected area and gently rub it in until absorbed.
Always wash your hands before and after applying this cream, unless your hands are the treatment site.
Remember, this cream is for external use only. Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, or vagina.
For specific advice on how to use this cream, always consult your doctor.

Lulitec Cream is applied topically.

The use of Lulitec Cream may cause the following side effects:

Burning sensation at the application site
Stinging feeling at the application site
Itching
Redness
Dryness

Managing the Side Effects:

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

Burning sensation: Try applying this cream in cooler temperatures to reduce a burning sensation.
Itching: If itching persists, consider applying a cooling lotion after using Lulitec Cream.

Lulitec Cream contains luliconazole (1%), which exerts its antifungal activity in the following ways:

Inhibits Ergosterol Synthesis: Luliconazole blocks the activity of an enzyme called lanosterol 14α-demethylase in the fungus. This enzyme is key in converting lanosterol and ergosterol, two major components of the fungal cell membrane.
Disrupts Fungal Cell Membrane: By blocking ergosterol synthesis, luliconazole causes alterations in the fungal cell membrane's permeability and stability. This leads to instability and eventual death of the fungal cells.
This action against fungi makes Lulitec Cream an effective solution for managing common superficial fungal skin infections in adults.

Pregnancy

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

Breastfeeding

Lulitec Cream should be used with care during breastfeeding. Always discuss this with your doctor before starting the medication.

Alcohol

As Lulitec Cream is a topical medication, interactions with alcohol are unlikely. However, it's always wise to discuss your alcohol consumption with your doctor.

Liver

Since liver disease rarely affects the use of topical products like Lulitec Cream, concerns regarding liver health are minimal. Yet, reach out to your doctor if you have any liver-related health issues.

Kidney

Kidney conditions are unlikely to influence the effectiveness of topical medications such as Lulitec Cream. However, if you have kidney problems, it's best to consult your doctor.

Using Machines & Driving

Applying Lulitec Cream does not impact your ability to drive or operate machinery.

Allergy

If you have known allergies to luliconazole or any of the cream's components, avoid using Lulitec Cream.

Children

The safety and efficacy of Lulitec Cream in children have not been established. Therefore, it is recommended that this medicine is not applied to children under 18 years of age.

Older Patients

Older patients should use Lulitec Cream under medical supervision, as they may be more susceptible to its side effects. Your doctor will guide you based on your health status.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Lulitec Cream interacts with the following medicines:

Topical Steroids: Lulitec Cream, when used in combination with topical steroids like hydrocortisone or betamethasone, might enhance the anti-inflammatory effect but can also increase the risk of side effects.
As Lulitec Cream is applied topically with minimal systemic absorption, its interaction with other medications is generally low. However, always inform your doctor about all medications you're currently using before starting this cream.

Drug-Food Interactions

There are no known food interactions with Lulitec Cream as it is meant for topical application. Therefore, your normal diet does not influence the effectiveness of this cream.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Lulitec Cream interacts with the following diseases:

Allergic Reactions: If you have a history of allergy or hypersensitivity to imidazole antifungal creams such as miconazole or ketoconazole, you should exercise caution while using Lulitec Cream as it might trigger similar allergic reactions.

Daily Dose

You should apply the daily dose of Lulitec Cream as prescribed by your doctor. The amount required can vary based on the severity of your condition and how you respond to the medication. Always stick to the dosage recommended by your doctor.

Over Dose

Using more than the prescribed amount of Lulitec Cream may lead to skin irritation or worsen existing symptoms. If you've used excessive cream, gently wipe off the extra amount and rinse with cool water. Notify your doctor if symptoms persist.

Missed Dose

If you forget to apply Lulitec Cream at the scheduled time, do it as soon as you remember. But if it's nearly time for your next application, omit the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Don't apply extra cream without consulting your doctor.

Store Lulitec Cream at room temperature not exceeding 25°C.
Keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain its effectiveness.
Make sure the cream is out of reach and sight of children.

Since fungal infections thrive in warm, moist areas, ensure you keep your skin clean and dry. Regularly change and wash clothes that come into contact with the infected area.
A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains can boost your immune system, making you less susceptible to infections.
