LULICONAZOLE DUSTING POWDER 1% W/W

Fungal skin infections are among the most common dermatological problems in India, largely due to hot and humid climate, excessive sweating, tight clothing, and poor air circulation on the skin. Conditions such as ringworm, athlete’s foot, jock itch, and fungal rashes not only cause discomfort but can also become recurrent if not treated properly.

LONICAZOLE Dusting Powder 1% w/w is a clinically effective antifungal formulation containing Luliconazole 1% w/w, developed to treat and prevent fungal skin infections while keeping the affected area dry and comfortable. Its dusting powder form makes it especially suitable for areas prone to moisture, friction, and sweating.

Manufactured with high-quality standards, LONICAZOLE Dusting Powder offers targeted antifungal action along with moisture control, making it an ideal choice for daily antifungal skin care.

Understanding Fungal Skin Infections

Fungal infections of the skin are caused by dermatophytes, yeasts, or molds that thrive in warm, moist environments. Common risk factors include:

• Excessive sweating

• Wearing tight or synthetic clothing

• Poor personal hygiene

• Diabetes

• Weakened immunity

• Prolonged use of occlusive footwear

If untreated, fungal infections can spread, recur frequently, and significantly affect quality of life.

What is Luliconazole 1% w/w?

Luliconazole is a modern imidazole class antifungal agent with broad-spectrum activity against dermatophytes and other fungi responsible for skin infections.

Key Properties of Luliconazole

• Potent antifungal action

• Effective at low concentrations

• Rapid relief from itching and redness

• Suitable for short-duration therapy

• Low systemic absorption

In LONICAZOLE Dusting Powder 1% w/w, Luliconazole is combined with a powder base that helps absorb moisture and prevent fungal growth.

Composition of LONICAZOLE Dusting Powder

Each gram of dusting powder contains:

• Luliconazole – 1% w/w

The formulation ensures uniform distribution, easy application, and prolonged antifungal protection.

How LONICAZOLE Dusting Powder Works

LONICAZOLE Dusting Powder 1% w/w works through a dual mechanism:

Antifungal Action

Luliconazole inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes. This leads to:

• Disruption of fungal cell structure

• Inhibition of fungal growth

• Elimination of existing infection

Moisture Control

The dusting powder base:

• Absorbs excess sweat

• Keeps skin dry

• Reduces friction in skin folds

• Prevents fungal recurrence

This combination makes it ideal for both treatment and prevention.
