Price ≠ effectiveness:

A lower-priced substitute doesn't mean it's less effective. Many generic medicines work just as well as branded ones.

Check the dosage form and strength:

Always match the substitute’s strength (e.g., 5mg, 10mg) and form (tablet, capsule, syrup) with what your doctor prescribed.

Medicinal Benefits

Rexizole Lotion contains clotrimazole, an antifungal medication used to treat various fungal skin infections such as athlete's foot, ringworm, fungal nappy rash, and fungal sweat rash. Furthermore, it helps to alleviate the symptoms of thrush. Rexizole Lotion damages the fungal cell membrane and causes the components to leak out, thus killing the fungus and curing the infection.
