Product introduction
Lactifem Itch Cream is for external use only. It may be prescribed alone or in combination with other medicines. You should use it as advised by your doctor. You should not use it on skin which is broken, bruised, or blistered. If it gets into your eyes, nose, or mouth, vagina, immediately rinse with plenty of water.
It may cause irritation, itching, and burning sensation immediately following application. However, these side effects are temporary and usually subside on their own. Inform your doctor if they persist for a longer duration.
Although medicines used on the skin are not normally affected by other medicines, you should let your doctor know if you are taking any other medicine to be safe. Ask your doctor for advice if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Uses of Lactifem Cream
Benefits of Lactifem Cream
Lactifem Itch Cream is used to treat infections in the ear caused by fungus. It kills and stops the growth of fungus, thereby clearing the infection. Lactifem Itch Cream reduces pain by creating a feeling of numbness at the area of application. It also gives relief from itching, redness and swelling in the ear. Make sure you complete the full dose your doctor has prescribed. This will ensure that the infection is completely cured and prevent it from returning. Along with using ear drops, apply warm compress on the affected ear several times in a day to get relief from pain.

How Lactifem Cream works
Quick tips
- Clean and dry the affected skin gently before applying a thin layer of the Lactifem Itch Cream.
- Apply only to the affected but intact skin and avoid using on open wounds, cracked skin, or near the eyes and mouth.
- Do not cover the application area with a bandage unless your doctor tells you to, as it can trap moisture and worsen irritation.
- Wash your hands right after applying to prevent accidentally numbing or irritating other areas.
- Continue using Lactifem Itch Cream for the full course even if symptoms improve early, to completely clear the fungal infection.
