Nadifa M2 Cream 7.5 gm is a dermatological combination medication used to reduce swelling, itching and redness caused due to certain fungal skin infections. Fungal infection is a skin disease in which a fungus attacks the skin tissue and causes infection. Fungal infections may be contagious (spread from one person to another).
Nadifa M2 Cream 7.5 gm contains Nadifloxacin (antibiotics), Mometasone (corticosteroid) and Miconazole (antifungal). Nadifoxacin is bactericidal and works by killing bacteria that cause infections. It inhibits the repairing of bacterial cells and kills the bacteria, thereby preventing the infection's further spread. Mometasone blocks various chemical messengers (like histamine) involved in allergic and non-allergic mediated inflammation. It reduces inflammation, itchiness and redness by preventing infection-fighting white blood cells (WBCs) from travelling to the affected area of your body. Miconazole belongs to the antifungals class that works by causing holes in the fungal cell membranes and killing fungi.
Nadifa M2 Cream 7.5 gm is only for external use. Some people may experience dry skin, itching, irritation, redness or burning sensation at the application site.
