Afderm MN Plus Cream 15 gm

Your doctor may recommend this medicine to help manage the following conditions:

• Skin infections with inflammation: It helps by clearing bacterial and fungal pathogens while reducing swelling, itching, and redness in the affected area.
• Infected eczema or dermatitis: It calms severe skin irritation and treats the underlying microbial infection complicating the eczema.
• Intertrigo or sweat rashes: It resolves painful skin-fold rashes that have become infected by yeast or bacteria due to moisture and friction.

When taken consistently as directed, this medicine may provide the following physiological benefits:

• Dual-Action Relief: By targeting both bacteria and fungi simultaneously, Afderm MN Plus Cream simplifies your treatment plan, eliminating the need for multiple separate creams.
• Rapid Relief from Itching and Redness: The anti-inflammatory component works quickly to soothe angry, irritated skin, helping you feel more comfortable and preventing scratch-related skin damage.
• Faster Skin Healing: By clearing the underlying infection and reducing inflammation, this medication supports the skin's natural barrier repair, leading to a quicker recovery.

• Follow your doctor’s instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication to ensure safe and effective use.
• Apply it as a thin layer on the clean and dry affected area as advised by your doctor.
• Wash your hands before and after using the medicine if your hands are not the affected area to prevent the spread of infection.

• Keep the skin clean and dry: Fungi and bacteria thrive in warm, moist environments. Gently pat your skin dry after bathing, especially in skin folds.
• Wear loose-fitting, breathable clothing: Opt for cotton fabrics to reduce friction, prevent sweat buildup, and allow your skin to heal.
• Avoid scratching the affected area: Scratching can break the skin, worsen inflammation, and spread the infection to other parts of your body or introduce new bacteria.
• Do not share personal items: To prevent spreading the infection or reinfecting yourself, do not share towels, clothing, or bedding with others during treatment.

• Check the tube before use: Inspect the cream before applying; do not use it if the tube is damaged, leaking, or if the cream has changed colour or consistency.
• Avoid contact with eyes, nose, and mouth: It is for external topical use only. If the cream accidentally gets into your eyes, rinse thoroughly with cool water immediately.
• Do not use on open wounds: Avoid applying this cream to broken skin, deep cuts, open wounds, or raw, blistered areas unless specifically advised by your doctor.
• Avoid long-term face application: Do not use this medication on your face for extended periods, as the steroid component can cause skin thinning or acne-like breakouts.
• Do not use on children without medical advice: Children are more sensitive to topical steroids; consult a paediatrician before applying this to a child.
• Consult your doctor if: your symptoms do not improve, worsen, or return after treatment. Your condition may need to be reassessed, and further treatment may be required.
