Overview Zimba 1% Cream

Topical antimicrobial cream, Zimba 1%, effectively treats impetigo in adults and children aged two months and older. This medication inhibits bacterial growth, thereby preventing infection spread. For external use only, apply a thin layer to affected areas twice daily, or as your physician directs. The treated area may be covered with a sterile dressing. Always wash your hands before and after application. Consult your doctor if no improvement is seen within five days. While generally well-tolerated, rare side effects may include erythema (redness, possibly with pustules) and dermatitis (scaly, red patches, particularly seborrheic dermatitis). Report any adverse reactions to your doctor. Avoid contact with eyes, mouth, or nostrils; rinse thoroughly with water if contact occurs. Prior allergy to any ingredient contraindicates use; review the accompanying information leaflet before commencing treatment.
