Daktacort Hydrocortisone Cream is a medicine designed to treat inflamed sweat rash and Athlete’s Foot. This cream contains two active ingredients: Hydrocortisone acetate, a mild topical steroid that reduces inflammation, swelling, redness, and itching of the skin, and Miconazole nitrate, an antifungal agent that destroys the fungus causing the infection as well as some associated bacteria. Daktacort Hydrocortisone Cream is suitable for targeting irritated skin conditions caused by fungal infections and provides symptomatic relief.

Active ingredients (per 1 g):

  • Miconazole nitrate 20 mg
  • Hydrocortisone acetate equivalent to 10 mg hydrocortisone

Other ingredients: Macrogol 6-32 stearate, glycol stearate, oleoyl macrogolglycerides, liquid paraffin, butylhydroxyanisole, benzoic acid, disodium edetate, sodium hydroxide, purified water.

Please refer to patient information leaflet.

Always use this medicine exactly as instructed in the leaflet. Do not exceed the stated dose. Not for use by children under 10 years of age without medical advice. For external use only on the skin surface.

  • Wash your hands thoroughly before use.
  • Apply the cream sparingly to the affected area, twice a day, for a maximum of 7 days. Gently massage the cream into the skin to aid absorption.
  • Do not cover the treated area with a dressing or plaster.

If the condition does not improve after 7 days, or worsens, consult your doctor.

If you or a child accidentally swallows the cream, contact your doctor or nearest hospital immediately and take the packet with you for identification.

If you forget to apply the cream, use it as soon as you remember and apply the remaining doses for that day at evenly spaced intervals.

If you have further questions on the use of this product, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

Do not use Hydrocortisone Cream in the following situations:

  • If you are allergic to hydrocortisone or any of the other ingredients of this medicine.
  • If you have a bacterial infection (e.g. impetigo), viral infection (e.g. cold sores, herpes simplex, chicken pox), or fungal infection (e.g. tinea also called athlete’s foot, ringworm, or thrush) of the skin.
  • On your face or near your eyes, on the anal or genital region, or on broken skin.

Hydrocortisone Cream is not suitable in these cases:

  • Allergic skin reactions including temporary red or raised areas on your skin (short-lived ‘wheal and flare’ reactions)
  • Conditions involving the deeper skin layers, such as granulomas
  • Psoriasis (long-term scaly skin condition); only use on medical advice and with supervision by your doctor

Do not cover the treated area with a plaster or dressing after application.

Apply the cream sparingly to the skin of infants or children, especially in the nappy area, as covering the area can increase absorption. Treatment for infants must not exceed 7 days.

Do not apply to the face for long periods of time.

If your condition worsens during use, seek advice from a pharmacist or doctor.

If a recurrence occurs within 2 weeks after stopping treatment, do not restart without consulting a healthcare professional. If the redness extends beyond the initial treatment area or is accompanied by a burning sensation, seek medical advice before resuming treatment.

Possible side effects include rash, itchy skin, swelling of the lips, eyes and tongue, or difficulty breathing—these may indicate an allergic reaction. Stop using the cream immediately and seek medical advice.

Other side effects: ‘Stretch marks’ especially in skin folds (groin, armpits); steroid withdrawal reaction with symptoms such as redness, burning or stinging sensation, intense itching, peeling of the skin, oozing open sores.
