Creobic Cream

Creobic Cream is a topical cream classified as a topical antifungal cream. Its formulation contains Clotrimazole 1% w/w (as listed for Creobic New Formula in Malaysian wholesale data), with the exact strength or quantitative composition to be confirmed from the current product packaging where the batch information does not provide a verified value. The dosage form is designed for the route stated on the label, and the physical characteristics of the product determine how it is prepared, applied or taken. Customers should check the pack before use so that the correct strength, formulation and instructions are matched to the product in hand.

The formulation has a defined pharmaceutical or physical profile rather than being interchangeable with other products that may have a similar brand or general category. Clotrimazole is an imidazole antifungal that interferes with fungal ergosterol synthesis by inhibiting fungal cytochrome P450-dependent enzymes. Disruption of the fungal cell membrane changes membrane permeability and cellular function. Product handling also matters: application technique, measuring accuracy, contact time and storage conditions can affect appropriate use. Keep the original packaging available so the batch, expiry information and current manufacturer instructions can be checked whenever necessary.

Wash and dry the area gently before application. Apply a thin film over the affected skin and a small margin around it, then wash hands after application unless the hands are the treated area. Avoid tight occlusive dressings unless advised by a healthcare professional.

Apply a thin layer to the affected skin at the frequency stated on the current label, commonly two or three times daily depending on the formulation and site. Continue for the full labelled course rather than increasing the amount per application.

Keep the tube tightly closed and store below the temperature stated on the pack. Protect from excessive heat and keep away from children.

• Known allergy or hypersensitivity to any active or inactive ingredient.
• Application to broken, infected or severely irritated skin where the formulation is intended only for intact skin.

• Tell a pharmacist about prescription medicines, anticoagulants, antiplatelet medicines and regular supplements before repeated use.
• Avoid combining products with the same active ingredient unless a healthcare professional has checked the total exposure.
• No specific food interaction is established from the supplied product data; follow the current label for any product-specific restriction.

• Read the current label before the first use and check the strength or formulation.
• Use the measuring device supplied with liquid medicines instead of a household spoon.
• Wash hands before and after topical application unless the hands are the treated area.
• Keep the original packaging so expiry, batch and ingredient information remain available.
• Do not share medicines, applicators or single-use topical products with another person.
• Ask a pharmacist if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, caring for a child, taking regular medicines or unsure about the correct dose.

Precautions: For external use only unless the specific product label states otherwise. Avoid the eyes and mouth. Stop and seek advice if marked irritation, swelling or worsening of the treated area occurs, or if the skin problem is not improving after the labelled treatment period.

When to See a Doctor or Pharmacist: Seek medical or dental assessment for severe, persistent, rapidly worsening or unexplained symptoms, or whenever the product is not producing the expected response within the labelled period.
