About LAMIFIN M CREAM
LAMIFIN M CREAM is a dermatological medication primarily used to treat fungal skin infections. It is commonly prescribed for conditions such as ringworm, athlete's foot, jock itch, tinea versicolor (which causes light or dark patches on the skin), and inflammatory skin disorders, including eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis (characterized by itchy, dry, or inflamed skin). Eczema is characterised by red, itchy, and cracked patches, while psoriasis involves the rapid buildup of skin cells, forming thick, scaly plaques. Fungal infections occur when fungi invade the skin, leading to symptoms such as redness, itching, and scaling.
LAMIFIN M CREAM contains two active ingredients: Mometasone (a corticosteroid) and Terbinafine (an antifungal). Mometasone works by blocking the release of inflammatory substances, such as prostaglandins, which helps reduce swelling, redness, and itching associated with eczema and psoriasis. Terbinafine combats fungal infections by inhibiting ergosterol synthesis, an essential component of the fungal cell membrane, ultimately causing the fungal cells to die. This dual action makes LAMIFIN M CREAM effective for both inflammatory and fungal skin conditions.
Common side effects of LAMIFIN M CREAM include skin irritation, redness, dryness, peeling, itching, or a burning sensation at the application site. These effects are usually mild and temporary. However, inform your doctor if you experience more serious side effects such as rash, headache, swelling, skin thinning, nausea, or vomiting. Always use the medication as prescribed and for the duration recommended by your doctor to minimize risks.
LAMIFIN M CREAM is meant for topical use only. Avoid using it on sensitive areas such as the eyes, lips, nostrils, ears, or genitals unless directed by a doctor. Do not cover the treated area with bandages or dressings unless advised. Inform your doctor about any allergies to its ingredients or if you are taking other medications or supplements. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before using LAMIFIN M CREAM, as corticosteroids may pose risks with prolonged use. LAMIFIN M CREAM is not approved for use in children below 12 years of age unless specifically prescribed.
Uses of LAMIFIN M CREAM

- Treats fungal skin infections: LAMIFIN M CREAM is effective in treating fungal infections, including ringworm, athlete’s foot, jock itch, and tinea versicolor.

Key Benefits
LAMIFIN M CREAM is used to treat fungal skin infections, such as eczema, psoriasis, ringworm, athlete's foot, jock itch, dermatitis, and tinea versicolor. LAMIFIN M CREAM is composed of Mometasone (corticosteroid) and Terbinafine (antifungal). Mometasone is a corticosteroid that blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers), which causes the affected area to become red, swollen, and itchy. It effectively treats inflammation and itchiness caused by eczema and psoriasis. Terbinafine is an antifungal drug that treats fungal infections by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol in the fungal cell membrane (a compound present in the fungi to maintain cell integrity) and thus resulting in fungal cell death.

Drug Warnings
Avoid contact of LAMIFIN M CREAM with nose, mouth, or eyes as it may irritate. If LAMIFIN M CREAM comes into contact with these areas accidentally, rinse thoroughly with water. Mometasone may also increase the risk of infection in patients exposed to viral illnesses, such as chickenpox or measles. Topical use of corticosteroids may occasionally cause systemic immunosuppression (a decreased ability to fight infections), which can further exacerbate the disease; therefore, corticosteroids should be used with caution in patients with active infections. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult the doctor before starting LAMIFIN M CREAM. LAMIFIN M CREAM is not recommended for children below 12 years of age.
