Description
Lulimac Lotion is a topical antifungal medicine (applied to the skin surface) that contains Luliconazole. It is used to treat skin infections caused by fungi such as athlete's foot (an infection that affects the skin on the feet, between the toes), jock itch (red and itchy rash in warm and moist areas of your body especially affecting the groin area), and ringworm infections (scaly, red, and itchy patches on your skin). This medicine works by preventing the growth of fungi that cause infection. Lulimac Lotion has some side effects like irritation, itching, redness, and burning sensation at the site of application. However, these side effects may occur at the initial phase and subside by themselves as your skin adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if any of these side effects bother you or worsen. Do not use this lotion if you are allergic to it. Lulimac Lotion is for external use only. Use it regularly as directed by your doctor. Wash and dry the affected area before application. Spread a thin layer of the lotion over the affected area. Do not cover the affected area with bandages unless instructed by your doctor. Avoid contact with your eyes, nose, or mouth. If it comes in contact with such areas, rinse with plenty of water. Avoid applying this medicine to other areas of your body and for other skin conditions. If you do not see any improvement even after two weeks of use, consult your doctor. Lulimac Lotion may not be suitable for all people. It is not recommended for use in children below 12 years of age. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before using this medicine. Also, inform your doctor if you have other skin conditions and about other medicines that you may be using.
