What Is Econazole Cream?

Econazole nitrate is a cream-based medication that is used in treating tinea infections, including tinea pedis (athlete's foot), tinea cruris (jock itch), and tinea corporis (ringworm). Like fluconazole (Diflucan) and terbinafine (Lamisil), econazole belongs to a class of medications known as antifungal agents. Specifically, econazole nitrate cream is typically prescribed when the causative agent is Trichophyton rubrum, Trichophyton mentagrophytes, Trichophyton tonsurans, Microsporum canis, Microsporum audouini, Microsporum gypseum, and Epidermophyton floccosum although treatment may vary as a result of resistance patterns. Research is being done on other potential uses for econazole formulations.

Econazole - Cost and Dosage

Econazole cream is relatively affordable, costing under $20 per 30 gram tube of econazole 1% cream. Econazole coupons can sometimes be found online and some insurance plans may cover costs associated with an econazole prescription. Econazole nitrate cream 1% is typically prescribed to be applied to affected areas once per day although the ultimate regimen prescribed depends on the health needs of the patient and the judgement of the prescribing medical provider. Depending on the use, econazole treatment is often continued for four weeks or more. Econazole 1% cream is generally available in tubes containing 15 grams, 30 grams and 85 grams. Econazole cream should usually be stored below 86° C but consult the package insert for exact instructions.

Can I Buy Econazole Online?

Because of this, one cannot just buy econazole online without going through the initial step of consulting a medical provider and obtaining an econazole nitrate prescription. People in need of an econazole nitrate cream prescription can use Push Health to connect with a local medical provider who can prescribe econazole cream, including econazole 1% cream, when appropriate to do so.

Stinging and tickling have also been reported after econazole use. Econazole nitrate and alcohol should not be used together. People with a hypersensitivity to econazole or similar medications should not use econazole cream.
