Biocip FC Cream is a combination of three medicines: Fluocinolone acetonide, Ciprofloxacin and Clotrimazole. Fluocinolone acetonide is a steroid medicine. It blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy. Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic. It kills bacteria by preventing them from reproducing and repairing themselves. Clotrimazole is an antifungal which stops the growth of fungi by preventing them from forming their own protective covering.

If you miss a dose of Biocip FC Cream, apply it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

Biocip FC Cream must be applied as a thin layer on the affected area as prescribed by your doctor.

Do not use this medicine more often or for longer than advised by your doctor.

Before each application, wash the affected area with soap and water and dry well.

Avoid getting it in the eyes, mouth or nose. Rinse with cold water if you accidentally get it in these areas.

Do not cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor, as this may increase the risk of side effects.

Inform your doctor if the treated skin area does not improve after 2-4 weeks of treatment.
