Overview

HOE Ecocort Cream contains Econazole Nitrate 1% w/w (antifungal active ingredient) 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

Apply a thin layer of Ecocort Cream to the affected skin and the immediately surrounding area, usually twice daily or as directed by your doctor, gently rubbing it in until absorbed; treatment is typically continued for a limited period as advised, and the corticosteroid component is usually not intended for prolonged continuous use even though the antifungal component may need a longer course to fully clear the infection.

Dosage

The typical dose is a thin application to the affected area twice daily; your doctor will advise on the total duration of treatment, which often involves an initial course to settle inflammation followed by continued antifungal treatment (potentially with a plain antifungal cream) until the infection has fully cleared, to reduce the risk of relapse.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and keep out of reach of children; close the tube tightly after each use.

Side Effects

  • Mild skin irritation or redness at the application site
  • Itching or burning sensation
  • Dry or flaky skin
  • Swelling or rash (rare)

Contraindications

  • Hypersensitivity to econazole nitrate, triamcinolone acetonide, or other ingredients
  • Untreated bacterial or viral skin infections (e.g. herpes simplex, chickenpox, tuberculosis of the skin)
  • Use on the face for prolonged periods without specific medical advice
  • Rosacea or perioral dermatitis
  • Application to open wounds or ulcerated skin unless directed by a doctor

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Concurrent use with other topical corticosteroids may increase risk of systemic absorption and side effects
  • Occlusive dressings or use over large areas may increase systemic absorption of the corticosteroid component
  • Live vaccines may be less effective if significant systemic corticosteroid absorption occurs
  • No significant food interactions are known with correctly directed topical use

Quick Tips

  • Use only on the specific fungal-inflammatory skin condition diagnosed by your doctor
  • Do not use for longer than prescribed, as the steroid component is intended for short-term inflammation control
  • Continue the full course even if symptoms improve early, to prevent the fungal infection from returning
  • Keep the affected area clean and dry between applications
  • Avoid tight, occlusive clothing over the treated area where possible
  • Seek medical review if there is no improvement after the expected treatment period

Ingredients / Active Ingredients

  • Econazole Nitrate 1% w/w (antifungal active ingredient)
  • Triamcinolone Acetonide 0.1% w/w (corticosteroid active ingredient)

Relevant Information

HOE Ecocort Cream is intended for short, doctor-directed courses to bring an inflamed fungal skin infection under control; it is not intended as a long-term maintenance treatment.

  • Your doctor may switch you to a plain antifungal cream (without the steroid) to complete fungal clearance once inflammation has settled.
  • Misdiagnosis of a purely fungal infection as one needing a steroid-antifungal combination, or vice versa, can lead to treatment failure — confirm with your doctor before use.
  • Tell your doctor about any other topical medicines or skin conditions you have before starting treatment.
