The Osworth Tydineal cream is a multi-action topical medication used to treat various skin conditions involving fungal infections, bacterial infections, and inflammation. It combines three active ingredients to provide broad-spectrum treatment.
Key Information
- Active Ingredients: The cream contains Ketoconazole (antifungal), Neomycin Sulfate (antibiotic), and Clobetasol Propionate (a potent corticosteroid).
- Uses: It is indicated for topical treatment of fungal infections such as ringworm (tinea corporis), jock itch (tinea cruris), athlete’s foot (tinea pedis), and yeast infections (Candida albicans). It is also effective for dermatitis, eczema, itching (pruritus), black spots, and rashes where inflammation and bacterial infection are also present.
- Application: It is typically applied externally to the affected area twice daily, or as directed by a physician.
Important Precautions
- Consult a doctor: It should be used under a doctor’s supervision, especially if applying to the face or over a large area of skin for an extended period, due to the presence of a potent steroid (clobetasol propionate).
- Side Effects: Potential side effects include local skin reactions like redness, itching, or a burning sensation at the application site.
- Warnings: Prolonged or inappropriate use can lead to skin thinning or other systemic effects from steroid absorption. This product has been found to present a serious chemical risk when used as a cosmetic product.
- External Use Only: Avoid contact with the eyes and mucous membranes.
- Duration: Use the medication for the full prescribed treatment time, even if symptoms improve.
