About Lulizex-S Lotion 30 ml

Lulizex-S Lotion 30 ml 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).

Lulizex-S Lotion 30 ml 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, Lulizex-S Lotion 30 ml kills the fungi and clears the infection.

Lulizex-S Lotion 30 ml is only for external use. Some people may experience application site reactions such as redness, swelling, irritation, or burning skin sensation at the site. Most of these side effects of Lulizex-S Lotion 30 ml do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

It is recommended not to use Lulizex-S Lotion 30 ml if you are allergic to any components present in it. If you are pregnant or a nursing mother, it is advised to consult a doctor before using Lulizex-S Lotion 30 ml. Lulizex-S Lotion 30 ml is not recommended for children until your doctor recommends it. Let your doctor know about your medical history and other medications you are currently taking to rule out any potential negative effects.
