Im 12 weeks pregnant and previously was prescribed with Ecocort Cream due to fungal infection (5 months ago). Is it safe to use the cream to treat the recurrent fungal infection?

Hello and thank you for using our services

We understand your concern of using antifungal cream during pregnancy. We will try and assist you with this matter.

For your information, the antifungal cream should not be used during pregnancy without further investigation of your health history and pregnancy.

Using medication without proper consultation from a doctor can cause serious complication to your baby.

Therefore, I strongly suggest for you to talk to our doctor via teleconsultation to get a proper opinion on this matter.

I hope I managed to assist you in this matter. If you have any other enquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you
