How It Works
Clotrimazole disrupts the integrity of the fungal cell membrane, leading to leakage of cellular components and death of the fungus.
Uses & Benefits
Medical applications
InfectionSkinFungal
Glocan Cream contains Clotrimazole 1% w/w, an imidazole antifungal agent effective in the treatment of various superficial fungal infections. Clotrimazole acts by inhibiting the biosynthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting membrane integrity and leading to fungal cell death. Glocan Cream is indicated for the topical management of dermatophytosis, candidiasis, and pityriasis versicolor affecting the skin.

It is suitable for use on affected areas such as the body, feet, groin, and other skin folds. The cream formulation allows for easy application and rapid absorption, providing localized antifungal activity with minimal systemic exposure. Treatment duration typically ranges from 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the severity and location of the infection. Patients are advised to apply a thin layer of Glocan Cream to the affected area twice daily, ensuring the surrounding skin is also treated to prevent reinfection.
Common adverse effects are generally mild and may include local irritation, burning sensation, or erythema at the application site. Glocan Cream is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to Clotrimazole or any cream excipients. It is recommended to consult a healthcare professional before use, especially in cases of extensive infection or immunocompromised status.
