Amfine Cream 30 gm is used to treat fungal nail and skin infections. It contains Amorolfine, which works by stopping the production of a chemical called ergosterol in fungi that causes nail infections. Without ergosterol, the fungus cannot survive. As a result, it kills infection-causing fungi. It may cause common side effects, such as dry skin, itching, redness, or a burning sensation on the skin. Before taking this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.

Uses of Amfine Cream 30 gm
Directions for Use
Medicinal Benefits
Amfine Cream 30 gm is an antifungal that is primarily used to treat fungal infections of nails and skin such as ringworm, jock itch and athlete’s foot, seborrheic dermatitis (dry, flaky skin on face, scalp, chest, upper back, or ears) and pityriasis (a type of skin rash that causes scaly, discoloured patches on chest, back, legs and arms). The fungal cell membranes are essential for their survival, as they prevent unwanted substances from entering the cells and stop the leakage of cell contents. Amfine Cream 30 gm causes holes in the fungal cell membranes and kills fungi. Therefore, it clears fungal infections and provides relief from the symptoms of cracking, burning, scaling, and itching of the skin caused by these infections.
