Cutaneous fungal infections caused by dermatophytes, yeasts, and molds, even when associated with infections caused by gram-positive bacteria.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
TROSYD GINECOLOGICO is contraindicated in patients who have shown hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients.
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
For external use only. TROSYD GINECOLOGICO is not for ophthalmic or oral use.
If a sensitization reaction or irritation occurs, use of the product must be discontinued.
INTERACTIONS
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you have recently taken any other medicines, including those without a prescription.
Econazole is a known inhibitor of cytochrome CYP3A4 and CYP2C9. Despite low systemic availability following cutaneous application, clinically relevant interactions may occur, as reported in patients receiving oral anticoagulants such as warfarin and acenocoumarol. In these patients, caution is advised and INR should be monitored more frequently. Adjustment of the oral anticoagulant dosage may be necessary during treatment with econazole and after its discontinuation.
SPECIAL WARNINGS
Pregnancy and lactation
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking any medicine.
Use during pregnancy
In animal studies, econazole nitrate did not show teratogenic effects but was fetotoxic in rodents at maternal subcutaneous doses of 20 mg/kg/day and at maternal oral doses of 10 mg/kg/day. The relevance of this effect in humans is unknown.
In humans, systemic absorption of econazole is low (< 10%) after topical application on intact skin. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies on adverse effects resulting from the use of TROSYD GINECOLOGICO in pregnancy, and no other relevant epidemiological data are available. From the limited number of post-marketing data, no adverse effects of TROSYD GINECOLOGICO on pregnancy or on fetal and neonatal health have been identified.
Due to systemic absorption, TROSYD GINECOLOGICO should not be used during the first trimester of pregnancy unless considered necessary by the physician for the patient's health.
TROSYD GINECOLOGICO may be used during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy if the potential benefits to the mother outweigh the possible risks to the fetus.
Use during lactation
After oral administration of econazole nitrate in lactating rats, econazole and/or its metabolites were excreted in milk and detected in suckling pups.
It is not known whether topical administration of TROSYD GINECOLOGICO may result in systemic absorption of econazole sufficient to produce detectable levels in human breast milk.
Caution should be exercised when TROSYD GINECOLOGICO is administered to women who are breastfeeding.
Effects on ability to drive vehicles and use machinery
None known.
DOSAGE, ADMINISTRATION METHOD, AND DURATION OF TREATMENT
Apply once in the morning and once in the evening to infected skin areas with gentle massage.
For moist intertriginous areas (interdigital spaces of the feet, gluteal folds), it is advisable to clean with gauze or bandages before applying TROSYD GINECOLOGICO.
For the treatment of onychomycosis, an occlusive dressing is recommended.
OVERDOSE
TROSYD GINECOLOGICO is intended for cutaneous application only. In case of accidental ingestion, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may occur; treat with symptomatic therapy. Given the pharmaceutical forms available, intended for topical use, acute overdose due to ingestion is extremely unlikely and has never been reported to date.
If the product comes into accidental contact with the eyes, rinse thoroughly with clean water or physiological saline solution and consult a doctor if symptoms persist.
In case of accidental ingestion/overdose of TROSYD GINECOLOGICO, contact a doctor immediately or go to the nearest hospital.
IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS ABOUT THE USE OF TROSYD GINECOLOGICO, CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR OR PHARMACIST.
UNDESIRABLE EFFECTS
Like all medicines, TROSYD GINECOLOGICO can cause adverse effects, although not everyone experiences them.
Data from clinical trials
The safety of econazole nitrate cream (1%) and econazole nitrate emulsion (1%) was evaluated in 470 subjects participating in 12 clinical trials who received at least one of the formulations. Based on safety data collected from these clinical trials, the most commonly reported adverse drug reactions (ADRs) (incidence ≥ 1%) were (with incidence in %): pruritus (1.3%), burning sensation of the skin (1.3%), and pain (1.1%).
The table below lists ADRs reported with the use of dermatological formulations of econazole in clinical trials or in post-marketing experience. Frequency classes are reported according to the following convention: very common (≥ 1/10); common (≥ 1/100 to < 1/10); uncommon (≥ 1/1,000 to < 1/100); rare (≥ 1/10,000 to < 1/1,000); very rare (< 1/10,000); and not known (frequency cannot be estimated from the available data from clinical trials).
In the table below, all ADRs with known frequency (common or uncommon) come from clinical trial data, and all ADRs with frequency not known come from post-marketing data.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Concomitant use of latex-containing condoms or diaphragms with anti-infective vaginal preparations may reduce the effectiveness of latex contraceptives. Therefore, products such as TROSYD GYNECOLOGICAL cream must not be used concurrently with diaphragms or latex-containing condoms. Patients using spermicidal contraceptives should consult their doctor, as local vaginal treatments may inactivate the efficacy of spermicidal contraceptives (see section "Interactions").

TROSYD GYNECOLOGICAL must not be used in combination with other products for internal or external treatment of the genital area. If marked irritation or sensitization occurs, treatment must be discontinued.

Patients with known sensitivity to imidazoles have also reported sensitivity to econazole nitrate.

TROSYD GYNECOLOGICAL is not intended for ophthalmic or oral use.

INTERACTIONS
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you have recently taken any other medicinal product, including those without a prescription.

Econazole is a known inhibitor of cytochromes CYP3A4 and CYP2C9. Despite limited systemic availability following vaginal application, clinically relevant interactions may occur, as reported in patients receiving oral anticoagulants such as warfarin and acenocoumarol. In such patients, caution is required and INR should be monitored more frequently. Adjustment of the oral anticoagulant dosage may be necessary during and after treatment with econazole.

Contact between latex-containing products (such as diaphragms and condoms) and TROSYD GYNECOLOGICAL cream must be avoided, as components of TROSYD GYNECOLOGICAL may damage latex. Patients using spermicidal contraceptives should consult their doctor, as any local vaginal treatment may inactivate the spermicidal contraceptive (see section "Precautions for use").

SPECIAL WARNINGS

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking any medicinal product.

Pregnancy
In animal studies, econazole nitrate did not show teratogenic effects but was fetotoxic at high doses. The relevance of this effect in humans is unknown.
Due to vaginal absorption, TROSYD GYNECOLOGICAL must not be used during the first trimester of pregnancy unless considered necessary by the physician for the patient's health.

TROSYD GYNECOLOGICAL may be used during the second and third trimesters if the potential benefits outweigh the possible risks to the fetus.

Breastfeeding
After oral administration of econazole nitrate to lactating rats, econazole and/or its metabolites were excreted in milk and detected in suckling pups.
It is not known whether econazole nitrate is excreted in human breast milk.
Caution should be exercised when administering TROSYD GYNECOLOGICAL to women who are breastfeeding.

Effects on ability to drive and use machines
None known.

DOSAGE, METHOD AND DURATION OF ADMINISTRATION

Vaginal cream:
one applicator filled with cream every evening for two weeks.

Vaginal ovules:
one ovule every evening for two weeks.

Pregnant women should thoroughly wash their hands before self-administering TROSYD GYNECOLOGICAL vaginal ovules (for further information, see section "Special Warnings"). Furthermore, regarding TROSYD GYNECOLOGICAL cream, administration is recommended without using the applicator, or alternatively, should be performed by a physician.

OVERDOSE
Overdose with econazole nitrate has not been reported to date.
Given the available pharmaceutical forms intended for vaginal application, acute overdose due to ingestion is extremely unlikely and has never been reported. In case of accidental ingestion, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea may occur. If necessary, treat with symptomatic therapy.
