Frequently asked questions

What is Micetal used for?+
Micetal contains flutrimazole, a topical imidazole antifungal indicated for the treatment of superficial dermatophyte infections such as tinea corporis, tinea cruris and tinea pedis. It works by eliminating the causative fungi on the skin, relieving symptoms like itching, redness and scaling.
How does flutrimazole work?+
Flutrimazole inhibits the fungal enzyme lanosterol 14α‑demethylase, a key step in the synthesis of ergosterol, the sterol component of fungal cell membranes. By blocking ergosterol production, the drug disrupts membrane integrity, leading to fungal cell death and clearance of the infection.
What is the usual dose?+
The specific dosage and duration of Micetal are determined by the prescribing healthcare professional based on the type, location and severity of the infection, as well as patient age and skin condition. The prescriber will provide written instructions for the amount to apply and the frequency of use.
Is Micetal safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for flutrimazole during pregnancy and lactation are limited. Healthcare providers generally weigh the potential benefits against any possible risks before prescribing a topical antifungal to pregnant or nursing individuals. Patients should discuss their situation with a qualified clinician before use.
How do I order Micetal from GNH USA?+
To request Micetal, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then replies with pricing, availability, shipping details (including any cold‑chain requirements) and the necessary import documentation.
How does Micetal compare with other antifungal options?+
Compared with other topical imidazoles such as clotrimazole or miconazole, flutrimazole offers a similar spectrum of activity against dermatophytes but may differ in formulation, skin penetration and patient tolerance. Choice of therapy depends on physician preference, local resistance patterns and individual patient factors.
How should Micetal be stored?+
Store Micetal at room temperature, below 25 °C, in its original packaging. Protect the product from moisture, direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to maintain stability. Keep the container tightly closed when not in use and keep out of reach of children.
How is Micetal applied?+
Micetal is applied topically to the affected skin area. The prescribed amount is spread in a thin layer and gently rubbed in, usually twice daily or as directed by the prescriber. Hands should be washed before and after application, and the treated area should be kept clean and dry.
What are the most serious risks associated with Micetal?+
Although rare, serious adverse reactions can include severe allergic contact dermatitis, extensive skin swelling, blistering or systemic hypersensitivity. If any of these symptoms develop, the product should be discontinued immediately and medical attention sought. Prompt reporting of severe reactions helps ensure patient safety.
Who should not use Micetal?+
Micetal should not be used on broken or inflamed skin, mucous membranes, or in individuals with a known hypersensitivity to flutrimazole or any other imidazole antifungal. Patients with extensive skin disease or those taking systemic azole medications should consult a healthcare professional before initiating therapy.
