Description
Zoderm lotion is used to treat common skin infections, such as athlete’s foot, ringworm, jock itch, and tinea versicolor (a skin condition that causes discoloured patches). This lotion contains an antifungal medicine called oxiconazole. This cream is intended for use on the skin only.
Use Zoderm lotion once or twice a day on the affected area and a little around it. For tinea versicolor, once a day is enough. Continue using it every day, even if the skin looks better, and don't stop early.
This lotion is intended for external use only and should be applied to clean, dry, and intact skin, avoiding cuts, wounds, and irritated areas. Hands should be washed before and after application, unless they are in the treatment area. In the event of accidental eye contact, rinse the affected area immediately with clean water.
