Tydineal cream is used for treatment of fungal infections of the skin. It is effective against skin infections like eczema and ringworm.
COMPONENTS OF TYDINEAL CREAM
Tydineal Cream contains:
- Ketoconazole - 10mg
Ketoconazole is a broad spectrum anti-fungal agent that acts on the cell membranes of fungi by changing its permeability.
Pharmacological studies have shown that ketoconazole has extremely potent antimycotic actions against dermatophytes such as (Trichophyton sp., Microsporom sp., and Epidermophyton sp.), Saccharomyces and Candida Albicans. Strains of fungi are unlikely to have a natural resistance to Ketoconazole. Clobetasol is a cortex hormone that is highly effective against gram positive and gram negative bacteria. As a result, this combination of Tydineal cream is highly effective against fungi, bacteria, inflammation and pruritus (itching).
- Neomycin sulfate (5000IU)
Neomycin is an antibiotic that is used to prevent bacterial infection in the intestines. Neomycin is most often used topically to treat superficial infections. This includes treatment of superficial infections from staphylococci and gram-negative bacilli, either alone or in combination with bacitracin, chlorhexidine, or polymyxin. It has also been used orally in combination with other agents for patients prior to abdominal surgery or, in those at special risk from opportunistic infections, with gastrointestinal bacteria. It can also be used to decrease ammonia in encephalopathic patients suffering from hepatic coma.
- Clobetasol propionate (0.25mg)
Clobetasol propionate is the most potent of all topical steroids. It is successfully applied in the treatment of various skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and vulvar lichen sclerosis. Clobetasol propionate relieves the symptoms of a flare-up by reducing inflammation, itching and redness. It is not a cure for the condition, but it will help to relieve the symptoms.

HOW TO ADMINISTER TYDINEAL CREAM TO THE SKIN
Apply externally to the affected area twice daily.
Use this product as directed. Some products call for grooming before use. Follow all directions on the product package.
It is recommended to use tydineal for two (2) weeks on ringworm infections and jock itch, then for four (4) weeks on athlete’s foot and fungal infection of the hand.
Some products need to be shaken before use. Check the label to see if you should shake the bottle well before using. Apply to the affected areas of the skin as needed or as directed on the label or by your doctor.
How often you apply the medication will depend on the product and your skin condition. To treat dry hands, you may need to use Tydineal Cream every time you wash your hands, applying it throughout the day.
If you are using Tydineal Cream to help treat diaper rash, clean the diaper area well before use and allow the area to dry before applying it.
If you are using Tydineal Cream to help treat radiation skin burns, check with radiation personnel to see it can be applied before radiation therapy.
Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. Most moisturizers need water to work well. Apply the product after bathing/showering while the skin is still damp. For very dry skin, your doctor may instruct you to soak the area before using the product. Long, hot, or frequent bathing/washing can worsen dry skin.
Follow all the directions on the label for proper use.
