Overview Sertaset 2% Cream
Fungal infections of the skin, including athlete's foot, tinea cruris (Dhobie Itch), thrush, ringworm, and dry, scaly skin, respond to treatment with the antifungal cream, DermaClear 2%. This medication eliminates the fungi responsible for these infections. Apply DermaClear 2% Cream as directed by your physician, using it consistently for optimal results. Exceeding the prescribed amount won't hasten recovery and may heighten side effects. Continue treatment only as long as directed; inform your doctor if your condition doesn't improve within 2-4 weeks. Maintaining cleanliness and dryness of the affected area, along with handwashing before and after application, enhances effectiveness. For athlete's foot, ensure thorough sock/hosiery cleaning and daily shoe changes when feasible. Common side effects include localized reactions like burning, irritation, itching, and redness. Avoid eye contact; if accidental, flush with water and seek immediate medical help. While unlikely, inform your doctor if you’re currently taking other medications (oral or injectable) or have recently used steroid-containing medications or experienced an antifungal allergy. Disclose pregnancy or breastfeeding to your physician.
