Q. Can I use a steroid cream along with Nizoclin Cream?
It is recommended that you use a mild steroid ointment like hydrocortisone cream/ointment in the morning and use Nizoclin Cream in the evening. You can then stop using the steroid cream gradually over 2-3 weeks. But, if you have used a potent corticosteroid for seborrheic dermatitis, maintain at least a gap of 2 weeks before you apply Nizoclin Cream to prevent skin sensitization.
Q. How should Nizoclin Cream be applied?
Wash the affected area thoroughly with water and then dry it. Wash your hands carefully (until and unless your hands are also affected) after applying Nizoclin Cream. This will prevent the infection from spreading to other parts of the body or other people.
Q. For how long do I need to use Nizoclin Cream?
You should use Nizoclin Cream for as long as advised by your doctor. Generally, it is to be used for 2-4 weeks for jock itch and sweat rash and 2-6 weeks for Athlete’s foot. Do not stop using it even if your symptoms have disappeared because the infection may reappear if not properly treated.
Q. What should I do if I forget to use Nizoclin Cream?
If you forget to use Nizoclin Cream, do not worry and continue using Nizoclin Cream as soon as you remember. However, if you are not sure and have any other doubts, please consult your doctor.
