Afderm Plus Cream 15 gm

Afderm Plus Cream is used in the treatment of bacterial skin infections and fungal skin infections. The detailed uses of Afderm Plus Cream are as follows:

• Mixed skin infections: Afderm Plus Cream targets skin conditions where both bacteria and fungi are present alongside inflammation.
• Infected eczema: It helps reduce severe swelling, redness, and itching while treating bacterial or fungal infections that can complicate eczematous skin.
• Infected dermatitis: Afderm Plus Cream calms itchy, irritated skin while clearing the microbes causing the infection.

Afderm Plus Cream helps treat inflammatory skin conditions complicated by bacterial and fungal infections, providing relief from discomfort and supporting skin healing.

The following are the key benefits of Afderm Plus Cream:

• Helps relieve itching, redness, swelling, and skin irritation.
• Reduces bacterial and fungal infections affecting the skin.
• Improves skin comfort by calming inflammation and discomfort.
• Supports faster healing of damaged and infected skin.
• Helps prevent further skin damage caused by scratching.
• Provides comprehensive treatment by addressing inflammation, bacterial infection, and fungal infection together.

• Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before and after applying the cream.
• Clean and completely dry the affected skin area before application.
• Apply a thin layer of Afderm Plus Cream to the affected area and gently rub it in.
• Do not cover the treated area with bandages or airtight dressings unless specifically told to do so by your doctor, as this can increase absorption and the risk of side effects.
• Always follow your doctor's exact instructions regarding how often and how long to use Afderm Plus Cream.

• Keep skin clean and dry: Gently clean the affected area and keep it completely dry, as excess moisture can encourage the growth of bacteria and fungi.
• Wear breathable clothing: Choose loose-fitting cotton clothing to reduce friction and allow air to circulate, helping prevent sweat from building up around the treated skin.
• Avoid scratching: Do not scratch the affected area, as this can worsen irritation and increase the risk of spreading or introducing infection.
• Use gentle cleansers: Wash with mild, fragrance-free soaps or cleansers to help protect your skin and minimise further irritation while it heals.

• Check the tube before use: Inspect the cream tube before each use. Do not use it if the seal is broken, the tube is leaking, or the cream has changed colour.
• Avoid applying to sensitive areas: Do not apply this cream to your face, groin, or underarms unless your doctor tells you to. These areas absorb the medicine more easily and are more likely to develop side effects.
• Keep away from your eyes and mouth: Avoid getting the cream in your eyes, nose, or mouth. If accidental contact occurs, rinse the area immediately with plenty of cool water.
• Use only for the prescribed duration: Do not use this cream for longer than your doctor recommends. Prolonged use can cause skin thinning, increased absorption of the medicine, and hormone-related side effects.
• Watch for allergic skin reactions: Stop using the cream and contact your doctor if you develop a new rash, worsening redness, severe itching, or swelling after starting treatment. These may be signs of an allergic reaction.
• Do not use for certain skin conditions: Do not use this cream unless your doctor advises you to if you have viral skin infections such as chickenpox, shingles, cold sores, or herpes, or if you have skin tuberculosis, rosacea, acne, perioral dermatitis, or are allergic to any of its ingredients.
• Do not share your medicine: Use this cream only for yourself. Do not share it with others, even if they have similar skin problems.
