What is the Working Mechanism of Luliconazole and Chlorocresol Cream?

Luliconazole and Chlorocresol Cream is a topical antifungal and antiseptic formulation used for the treatment of fungal skin infections. The working mechanism of Luliconazole and Chlorocresol Cream has been discussed as follows: 

Luliconazole: It is a broad-spectrum antifungal agent that inhibits the synthesis of ergosterol, which is necessary for the structural integrity of the fungal cell membrane, and without it, the membrane becomes weakened and leaky. Disrupting the integrity of the cell wall leads to leakage of essential cell contents and ultimately causes fungal cell death.

Chlorocresol: Acts as a preservative and antiseptic with antibacterial properties. It prevents secondary bacterial infection in the affected area and enhances the stability of the cream formulation.

The dual-action provides effective relief from infections such as athlete’s foot, jock itch, ringworm, and other dermatophytic conditions.
