Three Legs Tinea-Kare Anti Fungal Spray

Three Legs Tinea-Kare Anti Fungal Spray is a topical antifungal spray whose active ingredient is clotrimazole 1%, an azole antifungal. It is supplied by DoctorOnCall as a 30 ml spray and is made by Wen Ken Drug Company (Pte) Ltd, the maker of the Three Legs range. The spray format lets the liquid be applied as a thin film without having to rub the skin, and the bottle has a cap that should be replaced tightly after every use.

It is for external use on the skin only and is not meant to be swallowed, inhaled or sprayed into the eyes, mouth or other mucous membranes. Clotrimazole is absorbed only in small amounts through intact skin, but it can still cause local reactions such as stinging or redness in some people. The list of inactive ingredients is not published in the sources reviewed, so please check the pack if you have sensitivities to alcohol, fragrance or other ingredients commonly found in sprays.

Please always rely on the active ingredient and strength printed on the pack you receive, and follow the directions on the pack for how often to apply it. The spray should be kept away from flames and heat, and it should be used in a well-ventilated area. Our pharmacist team can answer questions about suitability, application and use alongside other products before you order.

Wash and dry the skin area before applying the spray, and make sure the skin is clean, dry and intact. Shake the bottle well before each use, hold it a short distance from the skin, and spray a thin, even film over the required area. Allow the spray to dry naturally on the skin before putting on clothing, socks or shoes.

Replace the cap tightly after each use. Avoid inhaling the spray, and use it in a well-ventilated area away from flames. Wash your hands with soap and water after applying so that the product is not carried to your eyes, mouth or other body areas.

• Use only on intact skin and never on cuts, open wounds or broken skin.
• Avoid spraying the eyes, mouth, nose or other mucous membranes.
• Do not smoke or use naked flames while spraying.
• Use only for the duration stated on the pack and do not share the bottle with others.

Apply a thin film to the required area once or twice a day, as advised by a healthcare professional and as stated on the pack. Do not exceed the recommended frequency, because more frequent application can increase skin irritation without any added effect.

Missed application: apply as soon as you remember, unless it is nearly time for the next one, and do not double up. Continue for the full period stated on the pack, even if the skin looks better, and consult a doctor or pharmacist if the skin condition has not improved after the period on the pack, or if it worsens or spreads.

Check the expiry date on the bottle and carton. A shelf life after opening is not stated in the sources reviewed, so please use the product before the printed expiry date and discard it if the appearance or smell changes.

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight, heat sources and moisture. Keep the bottle upright, with the cap firmly replaced, and out of the reach of children.

• Keep away from open flames and sources of heat.
• Do not leave the bottle in a hot car.
• Do not transfer to another container.

• Known hypersensitivity to clotrimazole, other azole antifungals or any other ingredient in the spray.
• Application on the eyes, mouth, nose or other mucous membranes.
• Application on cuts, open wounds, broken or badly inflamed skin.

• No clinically significant interactions are expected with clotrimazole applied to the skin as directed, because only small amounts reach the bloodstream.
• Do not apply other creams, ointments, powders or sprays to the same area at the same time unless a pharmacist has advised you to, because this may increase irritation or reduce contact of the product with the skin.
• Tell your doctor or pharmacist about all medicines you use, including any other antifungal products, so that duplicate ingredients can be avoided.
• No food interactions are known for this product when it is used externally.

• Shake the bottle well before every use so the contents are evenly mixed.
• Make sure the skin is completely dry before spraying and again before dressing.
• Wash your hands after each application and do not touch your eyes or mouth.
• Keep your own towels, socks and footwear separate and wash them regularly in hot water.
• Continue to use the product for the full period stated on the pack rather than stopping as soon as the skin looks different.
• Store below 30°C, upright, and away from flames.

Precautions: For external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth and other mucous membranes, and do not spray onto broken or badly inflamed skin. Ask a doctor or pharmacist before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or if you are giving it to a child, because suitability depends on the age of the child and the area to be sprayed. The product may irritate sensitive skin, and it should not be used by anyone who has had a reaction to clotrimazole or a similar antifungal. Keep it away from flames and out of the reach of children.

When to See a Doctor or Pharmacist: seek advice if the skin condition does not improve after the period on the pack, if it worsens or spreads, or if it returns soon after you have stopped. See a doctor promptly if you develop blistering, severe irritation, swelling, oozing or signs of infection such as spreading redness, warmth or fever, and seek emergency care if you have swelling of the face or throat or difficulty breathing. People with diabetes, a weakened immune system or a history of repeated skin conditions should also speak to a doctor before using it.
