Pharmacology
Miconazole is a broad-spectrum antimycotic. It has high antifungal activity against dermatophytes, yeasts and other phyco-asco and adelomycetes, and it also has a potent antibacterial action against gram-positive bacilli and cocci. Miconazole has been proved markedly effective in secondary infected mycoses. Zinc Oxide and White Soft Paraffin work as emollients. They form an occlusive film that reduces trans-epidermal water loss, and this helps the skin keep its normal humidity level.
