About Flumet Gel 15 gm
Flumet Gel 15 gm is used to treat fungal skin infections. A fungal infection occurs when a fungus invades and affects the skin tissue. Symptoms of a fungal infection include skin rash, irritation, redness and scaling of the skin.
Flumet Gel 15 gm contains Fluconazole. It works by stopping an enzyme in fungi or yeast that is needed to make their cell membrane. This either kills the fungi or yeast or stops them from growing.
In some cases, Flumet Gel 15 gm can cause side effects such as itching, dryness, redness, and a burning sensation at the application site. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention. However, talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
