Drug Interactions
Aziskil may interact with certain medications, including other antifungal agents or corticosteroids. Inform your healthcare provider about all the medications you are currently taking, including prescription, over-the-counter, and herbal products. They can assess any potential interactions and adjust your treatment plan accordingly.

Avoid contact with the eyes when applying Aziskil. If accidental eye contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical advice if needed.
