Composition of Cicloher Cream

Cicloher Cream contains Ciclopirox (1%w/w). It belongs to the Antifungal class of medicines.

Uses of Cicloher Cream

Cicloher Cream is used in the treatment of fungal skin infections and nail infections.

Key benefits

  • Acts directly on the infected skin
  • Little absorption into the body

How Cicloher Cream works

Cicloher Cream is an antifungal medication. It is used along with the removal of unattached, infected fingernails and toenails to treat fungal infection. It works by stopping the growth of nail fungus and treats nail discoloration, splitting and pain.

How to take Cicloher Cream

Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer and rub it in gently. Wash your hands before and after use, unless your hands are the area being treated. This is for use on the skin only — do not swallow it. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Apply it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next application, skip the missed one — applying extra does not make up for it.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine is unlikely from skin use; swallowing the preparation may cause stomach upset. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Cicloher Cream

Most side effects of Cicloher are mild and settle as the body adjusts. Reported side effects include:

  • Burning or stinging
  • Redness
  • Itching
  • Dryness
  • Peeling

Stop the medicine and seek help immediately for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Safety advice for Cicloher Cream

DrivingNot expected to affect your ability to drive.

Habit formingNo

Warnings and precautions

Keep applying for the full period your doctor stated, usually two to four weeks, and for a week or two after the rash has cleared. Stopping when it looks better is why ringworm keeps coming back. Apply a little beyond the visible edge of the patch — the fungus extends further than the redness. Do not use a combination cream containing a steroid on a fungal infection unless a doctor has specifically prescribed it. The steroid calms the redness while the fungus spreads underneath. See a doctor if the rash covers a large area, involves the scalp or nails, or has not improved in two weeks — these usually need tablets as well.

Do not take Cicloher if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. For external use only. Not for use in the eyes.

Interactions with other medicines

No significant interactions are expected from preparations used on the skin.

How to store Cicloher Cream

Store below 30°C, away from direct sunlight. Close the cap tightly after each use. Keep out of the reach of children.

Expert advice for Cicloher Cream

Keep the area clean and completely dry — fungus thrives in moisture and sweat. Wear loose cotton clothing, change it daily, and wash clothes and towels in hot water. Do not share towels, and treat affected family members at the same time.
