Composition

Luliconazole (1 %)

Luliford lotion is primarily used in the management of various superficial skin fungal infections. This medicine is part of a group of medications known as antifungals, specifically designed to combat and control fungal growth.

This lotion is not limited to one type of fungal infection, but can be used to manage a range of conditions caused by dermatophytes such as Trichophyton, Microsporum, and Epidermophyton species. These include interdigital tinea pedis (commonly known as athlete's foot), tinea cruris (jock itch), and tinea corporis (ringworm).

As with all medications, it is crucial you consult your doctor for the correct dosage and frequency. Make sure you inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medication before starting this lotion. Any side effects observed should be immediately reported to your doctor. Continue taking the lotion for the duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Puncture the plug before use.
Ensure that your skin is clean and dry before application.
Apply a thin layer of Luliford lotion to the affected area once daily.
Extend the coverage to approximately 1 inch of the surrounding skin.
Avoid contact with eyes.
After application, wash your hands thoroughly unless they are the treatment site.
For further assistance or specific advice, consult your doctor.

Luliford lotion is applied topically.

Using Luliford lotion may lead to the following side effects:

Application site reactions: You may experience discomfort where the lotion is applied.
Burning sensation
Stinging sensation
Redness
Itching

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Luliford lotion. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Burning Sensation: Try applying the lotion at bedtime to lessen daytime discomfort.
Itching: If itching occurs after application, consider using the lotion at night to avoid scratching during daytime activities.

Luliford lotion contains Luliconazole (1%), which works on the body as follows:

Disrupts Ergosterol Biosynthesis: Luliconazole acts by blocking the formation of ergosterol, a vital component of the fungal cell membrane. It does this by inhibiting an enzyme called lanosterol 14α-demethylase, which converts lanosterol into ergosterol.
Fungal Cell Membrane Compromise: With the disruption in ergosterol biosynthesis, there's an accumulation of methylated sterol precursors and depletion of ergosterol. This compromises the integrity of the fungal cell membrane leading to its degradation.
Anti-Inflammatory Properties: Apart from its antifungal activity, Luliconazole also exhibits anti-inflammatory properties which help reduce symptoms associated with fungal infections.

Pregnancy

While using Luliford lotion during pregnancy, it's important to exercise caution. Only consider this medicine if its potential benefits outweigh any possible risks to the unborn child. Consult your doctor before you start using it.

Breastfeeding

The effects of Luliford lotion on lactating mothers are not fully known. If you are breastfeeding, be cautious and consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Alcohol

There is no known interaction between alcohol and Luliford lotion, as this is a topical application. However, always discuss your alcohol consumption with your doctor for overall health considerations.

Liver

The use of Luliford lotion is unlikely to affect liver health, given its topical nature. However, if you have liver issues, it is best to discuss them with your doctor before starting this medication.

Kidney

As a topical application, Luliford lotion does not generally affect kidney function. Nevertheless, if you have any kidney concerns, consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Using Machines & Driving

Using Luliford lotion is unlikely to impact your ability to drive or operate machinery. No specific precautions are necessary in this regard.

Allergy

If you know you are allergic to Luliconazole or any other ingredients of Luliford lotion, do not use this medication. Contact your doctor for alternative options.

Children

Luliford lotion can be used in children aged 2 years and above. However, the safety and effectiveness of this medicine in children below 2 years have not been established. Always consult your doctor before giving any medicine to a child.

Older Patients

While Luliford lotion can be used by older patients, they should do so under medical supervision due to increased susceptibility to side effects. If you are over 70 years old or have liver and kidney issues, please consult your doctor before using this medication.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Luliford lotion interacts with the following medicines:

Antifungal Medications: As Luliford lotion also contains an antifungal agent, luliconazole, using it simultaneously with other topical antifungals like ketoconazole or clotrimazole might increase the risk of skin irritation or other side effects.
Corticosteroids: Combining Luliford lotion with topical corticosteroids such as betamethasone or hydrocortisone could potentially intensify skin reactions.

Drug-Food Interactions

There are no known food interactions with Luliford lotion. As a topical medication, its absorption and effectiveness are not influenced by dietary intake.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Luliford lotion interacts with the following diseases:

Atopic Dermatitis: Individuals with atopic dermatitis, a type of eczema that leads to itchy and inflamed skin, should use Luliford lotion cautiously as it may cause further irritation.
Skin Hypersensitivity: If you have a history of skin allergies or hypersensitivity reactions, using Luliford lotion could potentially trigger allergic skin reactions.

Daily Dose

The daily amount of Luliford lotion you should apply depends on your doctor's instructions. This may be adjusted based on individual factors such as the severity of your condition and your response to the lotion. Always follow your doctor's prescribed dosage and never exceed it without consulting your doctor.

Over Dose

In rare cases, if you unintentionally apply too much Luliford lotion, you might experience mild skin irritation or discomfort. If this happens, rinse the area with cool, clean water. Should any symptoms persist, inform your doctor.

Missed Dose

If you forget to apply Luliford lotion as instructed, apply it as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for the next application, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Never increase your dosage without consulting your doctor.

Store Luliford lotion at room temperature, below 30°C.
Keep the lotion away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain its efficacy.
Remember to always keep it out of reach from children for safety.
Ensure that the bottle is tightly closed when not in use to prevent evaporation.

Maintain good personal hygiene. Keeping your skin clean and dry can help manage fungal infections that Luliford lotion is used to handle. Don't forget to change and wash your clothes, particularly underwear, regularly.
Incorporate probiotic-rich food items into your diet like yoghurt, kombucha, or kimchi. Probiotics can help maintain a healthy balance of microorganisms on your skin and may aid in preventing fungal infections.
