Fluocinolone acetonide + Miconazole is a combination of two medicines: Fluocinolone acetonide + Miconazole1 and Fluocinolone acetonide + Miconazole2, which treats skin infections. Fluocinolone acetonide + Miconazole1 is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy.

Patient Concerns about MIF Products
Frequently asked questions about MIF Products
Frequently asked questions about MIF Products
Q. What is MIF Ointment used for?
MIF Ointment is used to treat skin infections which may appear on the feet (Athlete’s foot), in the groin area (jock itch), or between skin folds (sweat rash infected with a yeast infection “thrush”). It is also used for candida infections of the skin and nails. It rapidly relieves the itching caused due to these fungal infections.
Q. Is MIF Ointment a steroid cream?
No, MIF Ointment is not a steroid cream. It is an antifungal medicine that belongs to the imidazole class of medicines. It works by killing the fungi or by preventing the growth of fungi that cause infection.
Q. What are the side effects of MIF Ointment?
The common side effects are application site burning, redness, and itching. The application site may also develop some uncommon side effects such as discomfort, dryness, bleeding, severe allergic reactions, urticaria or hives, rash, skin exfoliation, sticky skin, prickling sensation, or inflammation.
Q. Can I use a steroid cream along with MIF Ointment?
It is recommended that you use a mild steroid ointment like hydrocortisone cream/ointment in the morning and use MIF Ointment in the evening. You can then stop using the steroid cream gradually over 2-3 weeks. But, if you have used a potent corticosteroid for seborrheic dermatitis, maintain at least a gap of 2 weeks before you apply MIF Ointment to prevent skin sensitization.
Q. How should MIF Ointment be applied?
Wash the affected area thoroughly with water and then dry it. Wash your hands carefully (until and unless your hands are also affected) after applying MIF Ointment. This will prevent the infection from spreading to other parts of the body or other people.
Q. For how long do I need to use MIF Ointment?
You should use MIF Ointment for as long as advised by your doctor. Generally, it is to be used for 2-4 weeks for jock itch and sweat rash and 2-6 weeks for Athlete’s foot. Do not stop using it even if your symptoms have disappeared because the infection may reappear if not properly treated.
Q. What should I do if I forget to use MIF Ointment?
If you forget to use MIF Ointment, do not worry and continue using MIF Ointment as soon as you remember. However, if you are not sure and have any other doubts, please consult your doctor.
