However, consult your doctor for advice on the benefits and risks of using Lulipin Cream based on your specific medical circumstances and the potential impact on your unborn baby.
Is Lulipin Cream fungicidal or fungistatic?
Lulipin Cream possesses fungicidal properties. It works by inhibiting the growth of fungi by interfering with a critical component of fungal cell membranes (ergosterol). This inhibition leads to the slowing of fungal growth.
