Pregnancy interaction
Pregnancy
- Sertaconazole doesn't go into the body very much, thus it is usually seen to be safe.
- But it should only be used when absolutely necessary and under the care of a doctor, especially in the first trimester.
- Nursing
- Safe to use, but don't put it on or near the nipples so that babies can't touch or eat it.
- Final thoughts:
- If you are pregnant, you should be careful when using SERTAFORD Cream and talk to your doctor first.

Expert advice
- Only use it on skin that is clean and thoroughly dry.
- Use for the whole amount of time that was given (usually 2 to 4 weeks).
- Keep the area cold and dry; moisture makes fungal infections worse.
- Don't wear tight clothes, especially if you have a groin infection.
- Do not use on cuts, scrapes, or open wounds.
- Don't put makeup creams or oils on the diseased region.
- To keep from transmitting germs, don't share towels, socks, or other personal belongings.

How It Works
- Sertaconazole Nitrate
- It breaks down the integrity of the cell membrane of fungi, which kills the cells.
- Fights against dermatophytes, yeasts, and some types of mold.
- It also helps with itching and swelling because it has anti-inflammatory and antipruritic effects.
- Overall Action
- Stops the growth of fungi
- Gets rid of infection
- Lessens itching, redness, burning, and scaling
- Stops the problem from happening again when the full course is finished.
Medicine interaction
- Interactions are uncommon because of low systemic absorption.
- Don't use at the same time as:
- Other antifungals that are applied to the skin (unless told to)
- Corticosteroid creams on the same spot (may hide illness)
- Salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide are harsh exfoliants.
- Cleansers that are made with alcohol and make things worse
How to Use
- Use mild soap and water to clean the region that is hurt.
- Make sure to dry the skin well (this is very important for fungal infections).
- Put a thin layer of SERTAFORD Cream on the affected region and 1 inch surrounding it.
- Gently rub in until it is gone.
- Follow your doctor's instructions and use it once or twice a day.
- Keep going for 2 to 4 weeks, even if your symptoms get better sooner.
- Before and after application, wash your hands.
- Don't cover with airtight dressings unless told to.
