(10 mg + 1 mg)/g (1 + 0.1% w/w), cream
Isoconazole nitrate + Diflucortolone valerate
The medicine contains two active substances: isoconazole nitrate and diflucortolone valerate. Isoconazole nitrate treats fungal skin diseases.
Diflucortolone valerate belongs to a group of corticosteroids with strong effects, reduces skin inflammation, and alleviates symptoms such as itching, burning, and pain.
Travocort is indicated for the initial treatment of superficial fungal skin infections with concomitant severe inflammatory or eczematous skin changes, e.g., hands, interdigital spaces of the feet, and groin and genital areas.
Before starting treatment with Travocort, discuss it with your doctor or pharmacist.
Apply the medicine carefully to avoid getting it into the eyes or on the mucous membranes.
Tell your doctor or pharmacist about all medicines you are taking or have recently taken, as well as any medicines you plan to take.
No studies have been conducted on the interaction of Travocort with other medicines.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to have a child, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine. The doctor will carefully assess whether the benefits to the mother outweigh the potential risk to the fetus.
Pregnancy
Do not use Travocort in the first trimester of pregnancy. The decision to use the medicine in the remaining period of pregnancy is made by the doctor, taking into account the benefit-risk ratio. During pregnancy, avoid using the medicine on large areas of skin, for a long time, or under dressings.
Breastfeeding
It is not known whether Travocort passes into breast milk, but it cannot be ruled out that it may pose a risk to the health of the breastfed child.
During breastfeeding, avoid using Travocort:
Fertility
There are no data on the negative effect of Travocort on fertility.
It is unlikely that Travocort will affect your ability to drive or use machines.
Travocort contains cetostearyl alcohol, which may cause skin reactions (e.g., contact dermatitis).
Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. If you are not sure, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Apply a thin layer of Travocort to the affected skin area twice a day.
Treatment with Travocort should be stopped when the skin condition improves. Usually, treatment should not last longer than two weeks. If necessary, the doctor may continue treatment with an antifungal medicine that does not contain a corticosteroid, especially when using the medicine in the groin and external genital areas.
Hygiene is essential during treatment with Travocort (see section 2).
No dose adjustment is necessary for children from 2 years of age and adolescents. Do not use in children under 2 years of age.
It is unlikely that Travocort will cause acute poisoning after a single application of too much medicine or accidental ingestion of the medicine.
Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed dose.
Take the next dose at the right time and continue treatment as prescribed.
If you have any further doubts about using the medicine, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
