Cinatop-Z Shampoo

Cinatop-Z Shampoo is a medicated anti-dandruff shampoo from Cadila Pharmaceuticals containing Ciclopirox Olamine 1% and Zinc Pyrithione 1%. It is used to treat dandruff and seborrhoeic dermatitis of the scalp, which are driven by the Malassezia yeast and cause white or yellow flakes, greasy scaling, redness and itching. The generous 120 ml bottle makes it convenient for regular treatment and maintenance.

How It Works

Ciclopirox binds the metal ions that the scalp yeast needs for its enzymes, stopping its growth, and also reduces scalp inflammation. Zinc Pyrithione adds antifungal and antibacterial activity and slows excessive shedding of scalp cells, so fewer flakes form. The complementary actions of the two ingredients give effective control of dandruff and help prevent relapse.

Flucort-C Cream

PMCAdmin — Fri, 25 Sep 2026 07:01:05 +0000

Flucort-C Cream

Flucort-C Cream from Glenmark is a combination cream containing Ciclopirox Olamine 1% w/w and Fluocinolone Acetonide 0.01% w/w. It is prescribed for fungal skin infections that are accompanied by marked inflammation, such as red, swollen and intensely itchy patches of ringworm, jock itch or candidal intertrigo. The antifungal clears the infection while the mild steroid rapidly calms redness and itching.

How It Works

Ciclopirox kills fungi by chelating iron and other metal ions needed by fungal enzymes, stopping their growth and reproduction, and it acts on dermatophytes, Candida and Malassezia. Fluocinolone Acetonide is a corticosteroid that blocks the release of inflammatory chemicals in the skin, reducing swelling, redness and itch. Together they treat the cause and provide quicker symptom relief than an antifungal alone.

Key Features

Ciclopirox 1% w/w with Fluocinolone Acetonide 0.01% w/w
Dual antifungal and anti-inflammatory action
Rapidly relieves redness, swelling and itching
Treats inflamed ringworm, jock itch and candidiasis
Short-course prescription cream
20 gm tube from Glenmark

How to Use

Clean and dry the affected area
Apply a thin layer to the affected skin once or twice daily as prescribed
Use only for the duration advised by your doctor, usually up to 2 weeks
Do not cover with tight or airtight dressings unless advised

Safety Advice

For external use only
Avoid use on the face, groin or large areas for long periods unless prescribed
Do not use on untreated bacterial or viral skin infections
Prolonged use may cause skin thinning; do not exceed the prescribed course
Consult a doctor before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding
Keep out of the reach of children

Who It Is For

Flucort-C Cream is for adults with inflamed fungal skin infections diagnosed by a doctor. Because it contains a steroid, it should be used only for the prescribed period and not on the face or large areas unless advised.

Hexafung 1% Cream

PMCAdmin — Fri, 25 Sep 2026 07:00:40 +0000

Hexafung 1% Cream

Hexafung 1% Cream is a topical antifungal from Amwill Healthcare containing Ciclopirox Olamine 1% w/w. It is used for common fungal infections of the skin including ringworm of the body, jock itch, athlete’s foot, candidal rashes in skin folds and tinea versicolor. The cream helps reduce itching, redness and peeling and works steadily to clear the infection when used for the full course.

How It Works

Ciclopirox Olamine is a hydroxypyridone antifungal. It binds iron and other metal ions that fungal enzymes depend on, which interrupts energy production, nutrient transport and the removal of toxic peroxides inside the fungal cell. This makes it fungicidal against dermatophytes and highly active against Candida and Malassezia yeasts. It also has mild anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties that help irritated skin heal.

Key Features

Ciclopirox Olamine 1% w/w antifungal cream
Fungicidal against dermatophytes and yeasts
Treats ringworm, jock itch and athlete’s foot
Clears candidal rashes and tinea versicolor
Eases itching, redness and peeling

Cico 1% Cream

Cico 1% Cream is a Ciclopirox Olamine 1% w/w antifungal from Brinton Pharmaceuticals, a company focused on dermatology. It treats superficial fungal infections such as ringworm, jock itch, athlete’s foot, cutaneous candidiasis and tinea versicolor. It comes in a 50 gm tube as well as a 30 gm tube, so you can choose the size that suits the extent of your infection.

How It Works

Ciclopirox Olamine works by chelating iron and other polyvalent metal ions within fungal cells. This inhibits enzymes essential for respiration and for protecting the cell from oxidative damage, so the fungus stops growing and dies. It covers dermatophytes, Candida and Malassezia and also has mild anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects that help the skin settle.

Key Features

Ciclopirox Olamine 1% w/w from Brinton Pharmaceuticals
Choice of 50 gm or 30 gm tube

Truzap Cream

PMCAdmin — Fri, 25 Sep 2026 06:59:40 +0000

Truzap Cream

Truzap Cream is an antifungal cream from Intas Pharmaceuticals containing Ciclopirox Olamine 1% w/w. It is recommended by dermatologists for tinea infections of the body, groin and feet, cutaneous candidiasis and pityriasis versicolor. It works as a companion to Truzap Shampoo for patients who have both scalp and skin involvement, and helps reduce itching and scaling quickly.

How It Works

Ciclopirox inhibits fungal growth by binding iron and related metal ions, blocking metal-dependent enzymes the fungus uses to generate energy and neutralise toxic by-products. This damages the fungal cell and stops it from multiplying. The drug is active against dermatophytes, Candida and Malassezia, and its mild anti-inflammatory action helps soothe irritated skin.

Key Features

Ciclopirox Olamine 1% w/w cream from Intas
Broad-spectrum antifungal action
Treats tinea corporis, cruris and pedis
Helps clear candidiasis and pityriasis versicolor
Soothes itching, redness and scaling

Ciclokon 1% Cream

PMCAdmin — Fri, 25 Sep 2026 06:59:14 +0000

Ciclokon 1% Cream

Ciclokon 1% Cream is a Ciclopirox Olamine USP 1% w/w cream from Eskon Pharma, supplied in a larger 50 gm tube. It is used for superficial fungal infections including tinea corporis, tinea cruris, tinea pedis, cutaneous candidiasis and tinea versicolor. The bigger pack is practical for infections that cover a wider area or need a longer treatment course.

How It Works

Ciclopirox Olamine blocks fungal growth by chelating metal ions such as iron, which the fungus needs for enzymes involved in respiration and detoxification. Without these enzymes the fungal cell membrane weakens and the organism dies. It is effective against dermatophytes, Candida and Malassezia, penetrates the skin well and also calms inflammation.

Key Features

Ciclopirox Olamine USP 1% w/w
Value 50 gm tube for larger areas and longer courses
Treats ringworm, jock itch and athlete’s foot

Trifas 1% Cream

PMCAdmin — Fri, 25 Sep 2026 06:58:54 +0000

Trifas 1% Cream

Trifas 1% Cream is a Ciclopirox Olamine antifungal from A. Menarini India. It is used on the skin to treat dermatophyte infections like ringworm, jock itch and athlete’s foot, as well as yeast infections such as cutaneous candidiasis and pityriasis versicolor. The cream spreads easily, absorbs without a greasy feel and helps settle itching and irritation during the course of treatment.

How It Works

Ciclopirox kills fungi by chelating iron and aluminium ions, which disables enzymes involved in mitochondrial energy production and peroxide breakdown. It also interferes with the uptake of amino acids and ions across the fungal membrane. This broad mode of action works against dermatophytes, Candida and Malassezia and makes resistance rare. It has additional mild anti-inflammatory properties that support healing of inflamed skin.

Key Features

Ciclopirox Olamine 1% w/w from A. Menarini India
Broad-spectrum fungicidal action
Treats ringworm, jock itch and athlete’s foot

Synpirox Vaginal Cream

PMCAdmin — Fri, 25 Sep 2026 06:58:27 +0000

Synpirox Vaginal Cream

Synpirox Vaginal Cream is an antifungal cream from Synmedic Laboratories for the treatment of vaginal yeast infections. It contains Ciclopirox Olamine 1% and is applied inside the vagina to clear vulvovaginal candidiasis, a common infection caused by overgrowth of Candida yeast. Treatment helps relieve itching, burning, soreness and the thick white discharge typical of the condition.

How It Works

Ciclopirox Olamine is a broad-spectrum antifungal that binds iron and other metal ions inside the yeast cell. This blocks enzymes the yeast needs for respiration and repair, so Candida can no longer grow and is gradually eliminated. Because it acts locally, only small amounts are absorbed into the body, and its mild antibacterial activity also helps where mixed infections are present.

Key Features

Ciclopirox Olamine 1% vaginal cream
Treats vaginal candidiasis (yeast infection)
Relieves itching, burning and discharge
Acts locally with minimal absorption
Also active against some bacteria
30 gm tube from Synmedic Laboratories

How to Use

Use as prescribed by your doctor, usually once daily at bedtime
Fill the applicator and insert the cream gently high into the vagina
Complete the full course, usually 6 to 14 days, even during menstruation
Wash the applicator and your hands after each use

Safety Advice

For vaginal use only; do not swallow
Avoid sexual intercourse during treatment or as advised
Stop use and consult a doctor if irritation or allergy occurs
Use during pregnancy only under medical supervision
Store below 30Â°C

Civaderm Shampoo

PMCAdmin — Fri, 25 Sep 2026 06:58:01 +0000

Civaderm Shampoo

Civaderm Shampoo is a medicated scalp cleanser from Ajanta Pharma containing Ciclopirox Olamine 1% w/v and Zinc Pyrithione 1% w/v. It is prescribed for dandruff and seborrhoeic dermatitis, where the Malassezia yeast overgrows on an oily scalp and triggers flakes, redness and itching. The rich lather cleanses the hair and delivers both antifungal agents directly to the scalp.

How It Works

Ciclopirox stops the scalp yeast from multiplying by binding the metal ions its enzymes need, and it reduces scalp inflammation. Zinc Pyrithione adds a second antifungal and antibacterial action and helps normalise the fast turnover of skin cells that produces visible flakes. Used together, they give quicker and longer-lasting control of dandruff than either agent alone.

Key Features

Ciclopirox 1% w/v plus Zinc Pyrithione 1% w/v
Treats dandruff and seborrhoeic dermatitis
Reduces flakes, scaling and scalp itch
Controls Malassezia yeast overgrowth
Gentle lather suitable for regular use
100 ml bottle from Ajanta Pharma

How to Use

Wet hair and scalp with water
Massage a sufficient amount into the scalp and leave for 3 to 5 minutes
Rinse thoroughly; use twice or thrice weekly or as advised

Safety Advice

For external use only
Avoid contact with eyes; rinse immediately if contact occurs
Stop use if scalp irritation develops
Consult a doctor before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding
Store below 30Â°C
Keep out of the reach of children

Ciclorox 1% Cream

PMCAdmin — Fri, 25 Sep 2026 06:57:33 +0000

Ciclorox 1% Cream

Ciclorox 1% Cream is an affordable antifungal cream from BDR Pharmaceuticals containing Ciclopirox Olamine 1% w/w. It is used to treat fungal infections that affect the outer layer of the skin, such as tinea corporis, tinea cruris, tinea pedis, cutaneous candidiasis and tinea versicolor. The cream calms itching and helps clear red, scaly and discoloured patches when used regularly for the full course.

How It Works

Ciclopirox Olamine is a hydroxypyridone antifungal that works by chelating iron and other metal ions inside fungal cells. This inhibits key metal-dependent enzymes, disrupts the fungal cell membrane and blocks the transport of nutrients, so the fungus can no longer survive. It is active against dermatophytes, yeasts and moulds, and its mild anti-inflammatory effect helps soothe irritated skin during treatment.

Key Features

Active against dermatophytes, yeasts and moulds
