About Oxistat

What is this medication? Oxistat is a topical antifungal medication used to treat various types of skin infections caused by fungi. The active ingredient, oxiconazole nitrate, works by weakening the cell membranes of the fungi, which prevents them from growing and spreading. This medication is available by prescription and is typically found in either cream or lotion forms for direct application to the infected area of the skin. Healthcare providers commonly prescribe Oxistat to address conditions such as tinea pedis, tinea cruris, and tinea corporis, which are more widely known as athletes foot, jock itch, and ringworm. It is also used to treat tinea versicolor, a fungal infection that creates light or dark patches on the chest, back, or arms. Patients usually apply the medication once or twice daily for several weeks to ensure the infection is completely eradicated and to prevent it from returning.

Use in pregnancy

Pregnancy Teratogenic Effects Reproduction studies have been performed in rabbits, rats, and mice at oral doses up to 100, 150, and 200 mg/kg/day (57, 40, and 27 times the human dose based on mg/m 2 ), respectively, and revealed no evidence of harm to the fetus due to oxiconazole nitrate. There are, however, no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, this drug should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed.
