Health Tips for Luliconazole

• Clean the affected area gently with mild soap and water before applying Luliconazole. Ensure that the area is completely dry before applying the medication. Moisture can promote the growth of fungi, so it is important to keep the area dry
• After applying Miconazole, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water, unless your hands are the affected area being treated. This helps to prevent the spread of infection to other areas of the body or to other people
• Complete the full prescribed course of Luliconazole, even if your symptoms improve or disappear before completing the full course of treatment. Completing the full course helps ensure eradication of the fungus and reduce the risk of recurrence
• Avoid using harsh soaps, cleansers, or other products that may irritate the treated skin. Use mild and gentle products that are suitable for sensitive and irritated skin
