About CN-Cyclo Cream

CN-Cyclo Cream belongs to the class of medications called antifungals, primarily used in the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp. It reduces scalp inflammation and relieves symptoms such as itching, redness, and flaking, commonly associated with fungal scalp conditions. Seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp is an inflammatory skin condition that primarily affects areas rich in oil glands, like the scalp. It causes red, itchy, and flaky patches, often accompanied by greasy scales or stubborn dandruff.
