Indications of Micoral Gel
An antifungal medication called Micoral Gel 15gm treats fungal skin infections. It functions by eliminating the fungus that causes dry, flaky skin, athlete's foot, ringworm, thrush, and Dhobie Itch. The dosage and duration of Micoral Gel 15gm should be followed as directed by your physician. For the most effectiveness, this medication should be taken on a regular basis. Don't take more than you require; doing so won't help your condition get better and might even make the adverse effects worse. Usually, skin infections clear up in two to six weeks. If your problem does not improve after two to six weeks of treatment, let your doctor know. Do not take the medication for longer than prescribed. Keeping the afflicted region dry and clean and washing your hands both before and after treating an infection might enhance the benefits of medication. Change your shoes daily if you can, and wash your tights or socks well if you have an athlete's foot. This medication's most frequent adverse effects include burning, skin irritation, dryness, peeling, and blistering. Although these are typically not life-threatening, you should contact your physician if you suspect a severe allergic reaction.
Pharmacology of Micoral Gel
Miconazole is a synthetic broad-spectrum antifungal medication that works against gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus and Streptococcus spp.) and pathogenic fungi, such as yeast and dermatophytes. It prevents the production of membrane sterols and obstructs the fungal cell membranes' ability to pass through.
Dosage of Micoral Gel
For infants aged 4 to 24 months, provide 1.25 ml (1/4 measuring spoon) of gel four times a day after meals to treat oropharyngeal candidosis. Apply 2.5 cc (1/2 measuring spoon) of gel four times daily after meals for adults and kids ages two and up. Children and adults who have trouble swallowing tablets and infants four months of age or older should take 20 mg per kilogram of body weight daily in four separate doses to treat gastrointestinal tract candidosis. No more than 250 mg (10 ml gel) should be taken four times a day.
Interaction of Micoral Gel
In vitro studies suggest that oral medications may impair metabolism. Therefore, concurrent therapy with Terfenadine, Astemizole, and Cisapride should be avoided, as these products may precipitate. Micoral may also slow down the metabolism of phenytoin and cyclosporine, which could lead to toxicity from both drugs.
