Sertaconazole + Mometasone is a combination of two medicines: Sertaconazole and Mometasone which treat fungal skin infections. Sertaconazole is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering. Mometasone is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy.
Common side effects of Sertaconazole + Mometasone
Application site reactions (burning, irritation, itching and redness)
It is for use on skin only. Do not use it in your eyes, mouth, or vagina. Rinse with cold water if you accidentally get it in these areas.
Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor, as this may increase the risk of side effects.
If you think the area of skin you are treating has become more irritated, you should stop using Sertaconazole + Mometasone and consult your doctor.
Don't use this medicine more often or for longer than advised by your doctor. Inform your doctor if the treated skin area does not improve after 1 week of treatment.
