Luliconazole cream is indicated for the topical treatment of tinea pedis (athlete's foot), tinea cruris (jock itch), and tinea corporis (ringworm) in adults.
As an azole antifungal, luliconazole inhibits the fungal enzyme lanosterol 14-alpha-demethylase, which is essential for synthesizing ergosterol—a critical component of the fungal cell membrane.
For external use only; avoid contact with eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes. Apply to clean, dry affected areas as directed. Complete the full course of treatment even if symptoms improve.
