HOW LULICONAZ CREAM WORKS
LULICONAZ CREAM works by damaging the cell membranes of the fungus (essential for the survival of the fungus as they prevent the entry of unwanted substances into the cells and stop the leakage of cell contents) and killing fungi. As a result, LULICONAZ CREAM relieves discomfort, itching and irritation on the skin.
