Natspor Cream
Product introduction
Natspor Cream is an antifungal medication. It is used in the treatment of fungal skin infections such as ringworm, athlete’s foot, nappy rash, sweat rash, and vaginal thrush. It kills fungi by destroying the fungal cell membrane.
Natspor Cream is for external use only. You should use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. The affected area should be clean and dry before application of the medicine. Do not use more than you need as it will not clear your condition faster and some side effects may be increased. If your condition goes on for longer than four weeks or gets worse at any time, let your doctor know. The effects of the medicine can be increased by keeping the affected area clean and dry, and washing hands before and after treating the infection. If you have athlete’s foot, wash your socks or tights thoroughly and change your shoes daily if possible.
Some of the common side effects include skin irritation, redness, or itching at the site of application. If the side effects bother you or do not go away, let your doctor know. Some people have a severe allergic reaction which needs urgent medical attention. Signs of this include rash, swelling of the lips, throat or face, swallowing or breathing problems, dizziness and nausea. Get emergency help if this happens.
It is not likely that other medicines you take by mouth or injection will affect the way it works but talk to your doctor before using it if you have used a similar medicine before and had an allergic reaction. This medicine should only be used if it is clearly needed during pregnancy.

Patient concerns
FAQs
How to use Natspor Cream?
Before using Natspor Cream, clean and dry the affected area. Gently and thoroughly massage it into the skin. Be careful not to get the medication in your eyes or mouth. Use Natspor Cream once daily, preferably at night before going to bed, for two to three weeks or as advised by your doctor. If Natspor Cream gets in your eyes accidentally, wash with plenty of water and call your doctor if your eyes are irritated.
For how long do I need to use Natspor Cream?
Symptoms generally get reduced or get completely cured within 2 to 4 weeks. Use Natspor Cream until the symptoms get cured and then for two more weeks after symptoms disappear to avoid recurrence of the infection.
What measures should be taken for a fast recovery?
Keep the affected skin areas clean and dry but avoid excessive rubbing. The itchiness may give you an urge to scratch but avoid scratching as it will damage the surface of the skin, spreading the infection further. Always wash your hands after treating the infection to prevent it from spreading. Wash your socks, stockings, and tights thoroughly in hot water to remove any shed skin or fungal spores. Change your footwear daily, if possible.
When should Natspor Cream not be used?
You should not use Natspor Cream if you are allergic to Natspor Cream or any of its ingredients. You should also avoid using Natspor Cream for nappy rash, for nail or scalp infections, or for vaginal infections.
Is there anything which needs to be taken care of while using Natspor Cream cream?
Natspor Cream may reduce the effectiveness and safety of latex products (such as condoms and diaphragms) if it comes into contact with them. Therefore, you should ensure that Natspor Cream cream does not come in contact with these products. If Natspor Cream cream accidentally comes into contact with a condom or diaphragm, replace the condom or diaphragm before using it as contraception.
Can warfarin be used while using Natspor Cream?
No, Natspor Cream may interfere with the working of warfarin which may cause episodes of bleeding. Therefore, if both are to be used together then the therapy needs to be monitored.
Which fungi does Natspor Cream treat?
Natspor Cream is effective against dermatophytes, yeasts, molds, and other fungi such as Malassezia furfur. It is also effective against Corynebacterium minutissimum.
Can I stop using Natspor Cream when I feel better?
No, do not stop using Natspor Cream without consulting your doctor even if you are feeling better. Your symptoms may improve before the infection is completely cured. Therefore, for better and complete treatment, it is advised to continue your treatment for the prescribed duration.
