Overview

Defuzin 2% Cream contains Clotrimazole 2% and is presented as a cream. It is supplied in a pack size of 15g.

It is classified as a non-prescription medicine, so no prescription is needed to order it. Under Malaysian rules for medicine information, this page carries product, safety and handling information only.

You can consult a doctor or pharmacist online on DoctorOnCall about this product before or after you order. Every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is delivered. Always read the label and the leaflet supplied with the pack.

Directions for Use

Wash and thoroughly dry the affected area before each application, then apply a thin layer of Defuzin 2% Cream to cover the infected skin and a small margin of the surrounding normal skin. Massage in gently until absorbed, usually two to three times a day, and continue for the full recommended treatment period even after the rash or itching appears to have resolved, to reduce the chance of the infection returning.

Dosage

Defuzin 2% Cream is typically applied two to three times daily to the affected skin. Depending on the site and severity of infection, treatment usually continues for two to four weeks; for infections in moist skin folds or on the feet, slightly longer courses may be needed, and a doctor or pharmacist should be consulted if there is no improvement after two weeks.

Shelf Life

Defuzin 2% Cream is generally stable for up to 24 to 36 months from the date of manufacture when unopened and stored correctly; the exact expiry date is printed on the tube and outer packaging. Do not use the cream beyond its stated expiry date.

Storage Instructions

Store Defuzin 2% Cream below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the tube tightly closed after each use and out of reach of children.
