Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

This topical solution is a compounded formulation containing Clotrimazole 30 mg/mL and Miconazole 30 mg/mL, intended for external application to the skin. It offers a convenient and effective means of delivering a high concentration of two potent antifungal agents directly to the site of infection.

Clotrimazole and Miconazole are broad-spectrum antifungal medications belonging to the imidazole class. They work by inhibiting the synthesis of ergosterol, a critical component of fungal cell membranes. This disruption compromises the integrity of the cell membrane, leading to increased permeability, leakage of cellular contents, and ultimately the death of the fungal cell.

The combination of these two antifungal agents enhances the spectrum of activity and can be particularly beneficial in treating various dermatological conditions caused by fungi. This includes infections such as tinea pedis (athlete's foot), tinea cruris (jock itch), tinea corporis (ringworm), and cutaneous candidiasis. The higher concentration provided in this formulation may be especially useful for stubborn or recurrent infections that have not responded to standard therapies.

For patients, it is important to apply the solution exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Typically, this involves cleaning and thoroughly drying the affected area before applying a thin layer of the solution once or twice daily. Consistent use as directed is crucial, even if symptoms begin to improve, to ensure complete eradication of the infection and prevent relapse.

Possible side effects may include mild burning, stinging, redness, or irritation at the site of application. These effects are usually temporary. However, if you experience severe irritation, blistering, or signs of an allergic reaction such as rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing, discontinue use immediately and consult your healthcare provider.

For prescribers, this compounded topical solution provides a tailored approach for patients who may require a more aggressive treatment regimen. The combination therapy can address a broader range of fungal organisms and may reduce the potential for resistance development. When prescribing, consider any contraindications such as hypersensitivity to imidazoles or any component of the formulation. Additionally, assess the patient’s overall medical condition, including any concurrent medications that could interact with antifungal agents.

As with all topical antifungals, advise patients on the importance of hygiene measures to prevent reinfection or spread of the fungus. This includes keeping the affected areas clean and dry

Drug Interactions

A small arrow pointing down

Clotrimazole and miconazole are both antifungal agents commonly used in the treatment of various dermatological conditions, such as athlete's foot, jock itch, ringworm, and other fungal skin infections. This topical solution combines clotrimazole 30 mg/mL and miconazole 30 mg/mL, providing a broad-spectrum antifungal effect that targets the cell membrane of fungi, inhibiting their growth and proliferation. While this formulation is effective in treating fungal infections, it is important to be aware of potential drug interactions that may affect its efficacy or increase the risk of adverse effects.

For patients using this topical solution, it is crucial to inform healthcare providers of all medications currently being used, including prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, and herbal supplements. Although systemic absorption of clotrimazole and miconazole from topical application is minimal, interactions with other topical or systemic medications can still occur. Patients should avoid using other topical products on the same area of skin unless directed by a healthcare provider, as this may alter the absorption and effectiveness of the antifungal agents.

Prescribers should be cautious when recommending this formulation to patients who are concurrently using other topical medications, particularly corticosteroids or other antifungal agents, as these may either potentiate or diminish the effects of clotrimazole and miconazole. Additionally, patients with a history of hypersensitivity to imidazole antifungals should be monitored closely, as cross-reactivity may occur. In such cases, alternative treatments should be considered.

While systemic interactions are unlikely due to the topical nature of this formulation, it is important to consider the potential for local skin reactions. Patients should be advised to report any signs of irritation, redness, or worsening of the skin condition, as these may indicate an adverse reaction or interaction with other topical agents. In such instances, discontinuation of the product and consultation with a healthcare provider is recommended.

For both patients and prescribers, understanding the potential interactions and contraindications associated with clotrimazole and miconazole topical solution is essential for safe and effective treatment.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

The Clotrimazole 30 mg/mL/Miconazole 30 mg/mL Topical Solution is a compounded liquid formulation designed for external application to the skin, offering a targeted approach to treating various dermatological conditions, particularly those caused by fungal infections. This formulation combines two potent antifungal agents, clotrimazole and miconazole, each at a concentration of 30 mg/mL, to provide a broad-spectrum antifungal effect. Both clotrimazole and miconazole belong to the imidazole class of antifungal medications, which work by disrupting the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of fungal cell membranes. By inhibiting ergosterol production, these agents compromise the integrity of the fungal cell membrane, leading to increased permeability, leakage of cellular contents, and ultimately, the death of the fungal cells.

Clotrimazole and miconazole are effective against a wide range of dermatophytes, yeasts, and molds, making this formulation suitable for treating conditions such as athlete's foot (tinea pedis), jock itch (tinea cruris), ringworm (tinea corporis), and candidiasis of the skin. The liquid form of this topical solution allows for easy application and absorption into the affected area, ensuring that the active ingredients reach the site of infection efficiently. This is particularly beneficial for treating infections in areas with folds or creases, where creams or ointments might be less effective due to their thicker consistency.

For patients, the use of this topical solution is straightforward. It should be applied to the affected area as directed by a healthcare provider, typically once or twice daily, depending on the severity of the infection and the specific instructions provided. It is important to clean and dry the affected area before application to enhance the absorption and efficacy of the medication. Patients should continue using the solution for the full duration prescribed, even if symptoms improve, to ensure complete eradication of the infection and to prevent recurrence.

For prescribers, this compounded formulation offers a customizable option for patients who may require specific concentrations or who have sensitivities to commercially available products. The combination of clotrimazole and miconazole in a single solution provides a synergistic effect, potentially enhancing the antifungal activity and offering a broader spectrum of action. This can be particularly advantageous in cases where the causative organism has not been definitively identified, or in mixed infections involving multiple fungal species.

If you have any questions about this formulation or its use, please reach out to us at Bayview Pharmacy. Our team of compounding pharmacists is here to provide additional information and support to ensure optimal treatment outcomes for your patients.

Other Uses

A small arrow pointing down

The Clotrimazole 30 mg/mL/Miconazole 30 mg/mL Topical Solution is primarily formulated for the treatment of fungal skin infections, such as athlete's foot, jock itch, and ringworm. However, beyond these common uses, this formulation may also be considered for other dermatological conditions where antifungal activity is beneficial. For instance, it can be used in the management of seborrheic dermatitis, a condition characterized by scaly patches and red skin, primarily because of its antifungal properties that target Malassezia yeast, which is often implicated in this condition. Additionally, this topical solution may be employed as an adjunctive treatment in cases of intertrigo, where fungal overgrowth in skin folds can exacerbate inflammation and discomfort.

For patients with compromised immune systems, such as those undergoing chemotherapy or living with HIV/AIDS, this formulation can serve as a preventive measure against opportunistic fungal infections that may arise due to their weakened immune defenses. Furthermore, the solution's dual-action formula, combining clotrimazole and miconazole, offers a broad spectrum of antifungal activity, making it a versatile option for mixed fungal infections or when the specific fungal pathogen has not been identified. It is also worth noting that this formulation can be used in veterinary medicine for treating fungal infections in animals, although this should be done under the guidance of a veterinarian.

For prescribers, it is important to consider the patient's overall health status, potential drug interactions, and any history of hypersensitivity to azole antifungals when recommending this formulation. Patients should be advised to apply the solution as directed, typically to clean, dry skin, and to continue treatment for the full duration prescribed, even if symptoms improve, to prevent recurrence. If you have any questions or need further information about the use of this formulation, please reach out to us at Bayview Pharmacy. We are here to assist both patients and healthcare providers in optimizing treatment outcomes.
