Composition

Amorolfine (0.25 %)

Amrolstar Cream is primarily used for managing various superficial fungal infections of the skin. This medicine belongs to a class of medicines known as morpholine antifungals.

Apart from its main use, this cream also helps manage conditions such as tinea pedis (athlete's foot), tinea cruris (jock itch), tinea corporis (ringworm), cutaneous candidiasis, and pityriasis versicolor. It is instrumental in controlling these skin conditions by targeting the fungus causing these infections.

Before you start using this medicine, consult your doctor for the right dosage and frequency. If you have any pre-existing conditions or are on ongoing medications, inform your doctor about these. Any side effects observed during the course of the medication should be reported to your doctor immediately. For optimal results, continue using the medicine for the duration prescribed by your doctor.

Directions for Use of Amrolstar Cream 30gm

To use Amrolstar Cream effectively, follow these steps:

Ensure the affected skin area is clean and dry before applying the cream.
Using your fingertips, apply the cream to cover the infected area and its surroundings.
Gently rub in until the cream disappears.
Wash your hands thoroughly after application to prevent spreading the infection.
For precise instructions regarding quantity and duration of use, consult your doctor.

Amrolstar Cream is applied topically.

With the use of Amrolstar Cream, you may experience some side effects. These include:

Itching at the application site
Redness
Burning sensation
Stinging
Dryness
Peeling: Here, the outer layer of your skin might start to come off in pieces.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Amrolstar Cream. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Itching: Applying a cold compress to the affected area can help to soothe itchiness.
Dryness: Moisturise your skin regularly, but avoid applying moisturiser immediately before or after applying Amrolstar Cream as this could dilute the medication.

Amrolstar Cream contains amorolfine (0.25 %) which works on your body in the following ways:

Inhibits Enzymes: Amorolfine inhibits two key enzymes involved in ergosterol biosynthesis - delta14-reductase and delta7-delta8-isomerase. These enzymes play a significant role in the production of ergosterol, a vital component of fungal cell membranes.
Alters Fungal Cell Membrane: By inhibiting these enzymes and consequently depleting ergosterol, amorolfine alters the structure and function of the fungal cell membrane.
Increases Cell Permeability: The alteration caused by amorolfine increases cell permeability which leads to leakage of cellular contents and ultimately inhibits fungal growth.

Pregnancy

If you are pregnant or planning to conceive, it is best to consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Breastfeeding

If you're nursing an infant, consult your doctor before applying this cream.

Alcohol

There's no known interaction between Amrolstar Cream and alcohol. Yet, it's advised to ask your doctor if alcohol consumption can affect skin health or the action of the cream.

Liver

Amrolstar Cream is applied externally and rarely interacts with liver diseases. However, if you have a history of liver conditions, please consult your doctor.

Kidney

Topical applications like Amrolstar Cream typically have minimal interactions with kidney diseases. Nonetheless, if you have any kidney health issues, it's best to consult your doctor.

Using Machines & Driving

Using Amrolstar Cream doesn't usually affect your ability to drive or operate machinery. But if you experience any adverse reactions that could impair these abilities, stop these activities and seek medical advice.

Allergy

Don't use Amrolstar Cream if you're allergic to amorolfine or any other ingredients in the cream. If you experience any allergic reactions such as rash or itching after application, stop using the cream immediately and contact your doctor.

Children

The safety and effectiveness of Amrolstar Cream in children haven't been established. It should be used in children only if the benefits outweigh the risks and under a doctor's guidance.

Older Patients

Older patients may be more susceptible to skin sensitivity when using Amrolstar Cream due to age-related skin changes. If you're above 70 years of age or taking other medications, it is best to consult your doctor before using this cream.

Drug-Drug Interactions

Amrolstar Cream interacts with the following medicines:

Topical Corticosteroids: Combining amorolfine with topical corticosteroids like hydrocortisone may reduce the effectiveness of amorolfine.
Other Topical Antifungals: Using amorolfine with other topical antifungal agents such as clotrimazole may lead to reduced efficacy due to potential antagonistic effects.
Topical Antibacterials: Combining amorolfine with topical antibacterials like mupirocin may result in reduced effectiveness of the antifungal treatment.

Drug-Food Interactions

There are no known interactions between Amrolstar Cream and any foods or beverages. As this medicine is for topical use, it is not absorbed into the bloodstream in significant amounts and does not interact with food.

Drug-Disease Interactions

Amrolstar Cream interacts with the following diseases:

Allergic Reactions: If you have a history of allergic reactions to any of the components in Amrolstar Cream, like amorolfine or any of the excipients, there's a risk you might have an allergic reaction to this cream as well.
Skin Conditions: If you have broken skin, open wounds, or severe skin conditions at the area where you want to apply Amrolstar Cream, it might not be suitable for you. The cream could potentially worsen your existing condition or delay healing.

Daily Dose

The daily dose of Amrolstar Cream should be administered as directed by your doctor. The dosage may vary according to the severity of your condition and how well you respond to the medication. Always follow the prescribed dosage and don't exceed it without consulting your doctor.

Over Dose

In case you apply more Amrolstar Cream than you should, don't panic. Wash off the excess cream with clean water at room temperature. If symptoms persist or worsen, do inform your doctor.

Missed Dose

If you forget to apply Amrolstar Cream as instructed, do so as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for your next application, skip the missed one and return to your regular schedule. Never increase your dosage without consulting your doctor.

Keep Amrolstar Cream in a cool place, ideally below 25°C.
Keep the cream tube tightly closed when not in use to prevent air exposure.
Avoid exposing the cream to direct sunlight or moisture.
Keep this medicine out of reach of children for safety reasons.
Remember to check and adhere to the expiry date printed on the packaging before using.

Since Amrolstar Cream is used to manage skin fungal infections, maintaining good hygiene practices like regular bathing and keeping your skin clean and dry can help manage your condition.
If you're managing athlete's foot or jock itch, wearing breathable footwear and loose cotton clothing can prevent excessive sweating that may promote fungal growth.
