Myconel

The combination of Myconel is used to treat fungal skin infections. It relieves itching, inflammation, and pain. Myconel is sometimes prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.

The combination of Myconel comes in ointment and cream to be applied to the skin. Myconel usually is applied twice a day for no longer than 2 weeks. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Use Myconel exactly as directed. Do not use more or less of it or use it more often than prescribed by your doctor. Wash the affected area thoroughly. Apply a small amount of cream or ointment and gently and thoroughly massage it into your skin. If you use Myconel on your face, keep it out of your eyes. If you are using Myconel on a child's diaper area, do not place tightly fitting diapers or plastic pants on the child. They can increase the absorption of triamcinolone, which can affect the child's growth.
