Indications & Clinical Uses

Miconazolnitraat/Hydrocortison acts on fungal skin infections and inflammatory skin conditions.

  • Dermatophytosis (tinea): eliminates the fungal pathogen and alleviates associated itching and redness.
  • Candidiasis of the skin: clears yeast overgrowth while soothing irritation.
  • Eczema: reduces inflammation, redness and itching, preventing secondary infection.
  • Inflammatory dermatoses: controls inflammatory response and limits fungal colonisation.

How It Works

  • Miconazole nitrate inhibits fungal ergosterol synthesis, disrupting cell‑membrane formation and leading to fungal cell death. Hydrocortisone binds glucocorticoid receptors, modulating gene transcription to suppress inflammatory mediators, reduce edema and diminish immune‑cell activity at the site of application.

Side Effects

Topical application of Miconazolnitraat/Hydrocortison may cause local skin reactions.

Common Side Effects

  • Burning or stinging sensation at the application site
  • Mild itching or redness
  • Dryness or flaking of the skin
  • Mild irritation or tingling
  • Slight swelling of the treated area
  • Minor discomfort after application

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Allergic reaction with rash, hives or angio‑edema
  • Severe contact dermatitis
  • Widespread skin infection or secondary bacterial infection
  • Systemic corticosteroid effects such as adrenal suppression with extensive use
  • Significant swelling or pain at the site
  • Unusual skin discoloration or ulceration

Precautions & Warnings

Before using Miconazolnitraat/Hydrocortison, consider the following precautions.

  • Avoid use on broken skin: may increase systemic absorption.
  • Do not apply to eyes, mouth or mucous membranes: risk of irritation.
  • Limit duration of therapy: prolonged use can cause skin atrophy.
  • Discontinue if allergic reaction occurs: seek medical advice promptly.
  • Use only under medical supervision in children: dosage may differ.
  • Store at room temperature: keep in the original pack, protect from moisture and light.

Avoid Interactions

Miconazolnitraat/Hydrocortison can interact with other medicines and treatments.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Concurrent use of potent topical steroids: may increase systemic corticosteroid effects.
  • Systemic azole antifungals: additive toxicity risk.
  • Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors: may raise miconazole levels.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Occlusive dressings: enhance drug absorption.
  • Other skin irritants or sensitizers: may exacerbate local reactions.
  • Immunosuppressive agents: monitor for opportunistic infections.

Frequently Asked Questions

Miconazolnitraat/Hydrocortison is a topical combination of miconazole nitrate and hydrocortisone used to treat fungal skin infections such as dermatophytosis (tinea) and candidiasis, and to reduce inflammation in eczema and other inflammatory dermatoses.

Miconazole nitrate blocks the synthesis of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes, causing membrane instability and cell death. This antifungal action helps clear the infection from the skin.

The dosage and duration are determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the specific condition, severity, and patient characteristics. The product is applied to the affected skin area as directed on the label or by the clinician.

Safety data for the combination in pregnancy and lactation are limited. It should be used only if clearly needed and after consulting a healthcare provider, who will weigh potential benefits against possible risks to the mother and infant.

Submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and required import documentation.

Compared with single‑agent antifungals, the combination adds a corticosteroid, which can reduce inflammation and itching more quickly. It may be preferred when both infection and significant inflammation are present, whereas monotherapy may be sufficient for mild fungal infections without inflammation.

Store at room temperature, below 25 °C, in the original container. Keep the packaging tightly closed, protect from moisture and direct sunlight to maintain product stability.

The cream or ointment is applied topically to the cleaned, dry skin area, usually two to three times daily, or as instructed by the prescriber. The area should be gently rubbed in until fully absorbed.

Rare but serious adverse reactions include severe allergic responses such as angio‑edema, widespread rash, or contact dermatitis. Systemic effects from excessive corticosteroid absorption, such as adrenal suppression, may occur with prolonged use over large areas.

Individuals with known hypersensitivity to miconazole, hydrocortisone, or any excipients in the formulation should avoid it. It is also contraindicated on broken skin, mucous membranes, or in patients requiring long‑term high‑potency steroid therapy without medical supervision.
