Oxiconazole (1% w/w)
Active composition
Oxiconazole alters fungal cell membrane permeability, leading to cell death.
Medical applications
Maxizol Cream contains Oxiconazole 1% w/w, a broad-spectrum antifungal agent indicated for the treatment of superficial fungal infections of the skin, including dermatophytosis, candidiasis, and pityriasis versicolor. Oxiconazole belongs to the imidazole class of antifungals and exerts its effect by inhibiting the biosynthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes, thereby disrupting membrane integrity and leading to fungal cell death. Maxizol Cream is suitable for topical application to affected areas, providing targeted antifungal activity with minimal systemic absorption. It is commonly prescribed for conditions such as tinea corporis, tinea cruris, tinea pedis, and cutaneous candidiasis. The cream should be applied once or twice daily to the clean, dry affected area, with the duration of treatment typically ranging from 2 to 4 weeks depending on the severity and type of infection. Adverse effects are generally mild and may include local irritation, burning sensation, or erythema at the application site. Maxizol Cream is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to oxiconazole or any of the cream’s excipients. Caution is advised when used in pregnant or lactating women, and use in pediatric populations should be under medical supervision.
Azole derivatives {Imidazoles}
Important precautions
Based on clinical trials and patient reports.
Overall Tolerance
Common Side Effects
Maxizol Cream is generally considered safe to use during pregnancy. Animal studies have shown low or no adverse effects to the developing baby; however, there are limited human studies.
High Risk
Maxizol Cream is probably unsafe to use during breastfeeding. Limited human data suggests that the drug may pass into the breastmilk and harm the baby. The baby's skin should not come into direct contact with the treated area of skin. Water-miscible cream/gel is preferred as ointments may expose the baby to harmful effects of Maxizol Cream via licking.
