Uses
Zocon Transgel 0.5% (Fluconazole) is a topical anti-fungal medication used to treat skin conditions such as ringworm or psoriasis. It works by preventing cell reproduction to stop the spread of the infection. Your doctor may also prescribe this medication to treat other conditions not listed here.

Dosage and Administration
Zocon Transgel 0.5% (Fluconazole) is generally prescribed to be used in a cycle of medication lasting one to two weeks. During this time you will be instructed to apply the gel two to three times daily based on your symptoms and health condition. Never stop treatment before instructed, even if your symptoms are improving, to prevent a relapse that is stronger or more resistant to treatment.

Ask your doctor or pharmacist about the correct procedure for applying the medication. This generally involves thoroughly washing and drying the area to be treated. Apply a thin layer of gel to the site and gently massage it into the skin. Do not cover the area and allow any excess to air dry. Wash your hands before and after each application to keep the medication from coming into contact with any areas not being treated. It is also important to keep it from coming into contact with the mucous membranes or areas of skin that are broken or damaged.

During your treatment you are advised to consult your doctor regularly. It may be necessary to adjust your regimen based on your response to the medication based on his or her judgement.
