About Lulican S Cream 15 gm

Lulican S Cream 15 gm belongs to a class of drugs called antifungals. It primarily treats fungal skin infections, including ringworm, jock itch, and athlete’s foot. Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus attacks the tissue and causes infection. Fungal infections may be contagious (spread from one person to another).

Lulican S Cream 15 gm is a combination of two medications: Luliconazole and salicylic acid. Luliconazole has a broad spectrum of antifungal activity. The enzyme lanosterol demethylase is thought to be inhibited by Luliconazole. Lanosterol demethylase is required to synthesise ergosterol, a key component of fungal cell membranes. Salicylic acid is a keratolytic agent that removes dead skin cells and softens skin by breaking down the protein keratin (a part of the skin structure). As a result, Lulican S Cream 15 gm kills the fungi and clears the infection.

Most of these side effects of Lulican S Cream 15 gm do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
