The full antifungal effect, however, may take up to 2 weeks. It is crucial to continue treatment for the duration prescribed by your doctor.</p> <p><b>Q2: Can I use this cream on my face?</b> <b>A:</b> You should only use Travocort Cream on your face if your doctor has specifically instructed you to. <span class="citation-230 citation-end-230">The skin on the face is thinner and more sensitive, which makes it more susceptible to side effects from the corticosteroid, such as skin atrophy and acne.</span></p> <div class="source-inline-chip-container ng-star-inserted"></div> <p><b>Q3: Is Travocort safe for children?</b> <b>A:</b> Travocort should be used in children only if a doctor has prescribed it. Children are more susceptible to the side effects of corticosteroids due to their higher skin surface area to body weight ratio.</p> <p><b>Q4: Can I stop using the cream once my symptoms are gone?</b> <b>A:</b> You should use the cream for the full duration prescribed by your doctor, even if your symptoms have disappeared. Stopping early can cause the fungal infection to return.</p> <p><b>Q5: What&#8217;s the difference between this and other antifungal creams?</b> <b>A:</b><span class="citation-229 citation-end-229"> The key difference is that Travocort is a combination product.</span> <span class="citation-228 citation-end-228">It contains both an antifungal (isoconazole) and a potent anti-inflammatory agent (diflucortolone).</span> Other antifungal creams may only contain the antifungal ingredient and will not provide the same level of relief from inflammation, redness, and itching.</p> <div class="tinv-wraper woocommerce tinv-wishlist tinvwl-shortcode-add-to-cart tinvwl-loop-button-wrapper tinvwl-woocommerce_product_get_description" data-tinvwl_product_id="6397"> <div class="tinv-wishlist-clear"></div> <p><a role="button" name="add-to-wishlist" aria-label="Add to Wishlist" class="tinvwl_add_to_wishlist_button tinvwl-icon-heart tinvwl-position-after tinvwl-loop" data-tinv-wl-list="[]" data-tinv-wl-product="6397" data-tinv-wl-productvariation="0" data-tinv-wl-productvariations="[]" data-tinv-wl-producttype="simple" data-tinv-wl-action="add"><span class="tinvwl_add_to_wishlist-text">Add to Wishlist</span></a></p> <div class="tinv-wishlist-clear"></div> <div class="tinvwl-tooltip">Add to Wishlist</div> </div>
