Biocip-FC Ointment may help manage certain inflamed skin conditions complicated by susceptible bacterial or fungal infections. The primary benefits include:

• Helps control susceptible infections: Ciprofloxacin acts against susceptible bacteria, while clotrimazole treats fungal infections, helping control the underlying infection.
• Relieves itching and discomfort: Fluocinolone acetonide helps reduce inflammation, relieving associated itching and discomfort.
• Reduces redness and swelling: The anti-inflammatory component suppresses substances involved in inflammation, helping reduce redness and swelling in the affected skin.

• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication.
• Take a small amount of Biocip-FC Ointment on the fingertip and apply as a thin layer on the clean and dry affected area as advised by your doctor.
• Biocip-FC Ointment is only for external use. Avoid contact with the nose, mouth or eyes. In case of accidental contact with these areas, rinse with water thoroughly. Wash your hands before and after using to prevent the spread of infection.

• Keep the affected area clean and dry: Gently wash the area as advised and pat it dry. Avoid rubbing or scratching, as this may further irritate the skin.
• Avoid sharing personal items: Do not share towels, clothing, razors, or other personal items that come into contact with the affected skin, as some infections can spread to others.
• Wear breathable clothing: Choose loose-fitting, breathable clothing where possible to reduce moisture and friction around the affected area.
• Avoid skin irritants: Limit exposure to harsh soaps, fragranced products, and other substances that may irritate the affected skin or worsen inflammation.
• Follow good hygiene practices: Wash your hands before and after applying Biocip-FC Ointment, unless your hands are the area being treated.
• Do not scratch the affected area: Keep your nails short and avoid scratching, as this may damage the skin and increase the risk of further infection.

• Use only on the skin: Apply Biocip-FC Ointment only to the affected skin as prescribed. Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, and other sensitive areas.
• Apply a thin layer: Use only the amount recommended by your doctor. Applying more medicine or using it more often will not improve results and may increase the risk of side effects.
• Complete the prescribed treatment: Continue using Biocip-FC Ointment for the duration advised by your doctor, even if your symptoms begin to improve. Do not use it for longer than recommended.
• Monitor your skin condition: If your symptoms do not improve within the timeframe advised by your doctor or become worse, contact your doctor so that your treatment can be reassessed.
• Avoid airtight coverings: Do not cover the treated area with bandages or airtight dressings unless advised by your doctor, as this may increase the absorption of fluocinolone acetonide.
• Watch for skin changes: Contact your doctor if irritation persists or worsens, or if you notice skin thinning, changes in skin colour, or other unusual changes in the treated area.
• Avoid unnecessary long-term use: Prolonged or extensive use of topical corticosteroids may increase the risk of local skin changes and greater absorption into the body.
• Use with care in children: Children may absorb proportionally larger amounts of topical corticosteroids through the skin. Use Biocip-FC Ointment in children only as prescribed and for the recommended duration.
