Side effects of Zuguangsan

Foot diseases are common in life, such as athlete's foot, onychomycosis, etc., which can cause serious damage to people's health and image. Therefore, treatment is very necessary, and the commonly used foot treatment medicine is Zuguangsan, which is a very traditional medicine and has excellent effects on the treatment of athlete's foot and other foot diseases. However, does Zuguangsan have serious side effects? Let’s take a look at the explanation below.

Zuguangsan is a new type of allylamine topical antifungal drug, which is used to treat keratotic tinea pedis and bromhidrosis caused by damp heat. Among them, keratotic tinea pedis and bromhidrosis caused by damp heat are skin diseases that are mainly treated with antibiotics.

Zuguangsan is an effective antifungal drug, among which salicylic acid, benzoic acid, boric acid, and Sophora flavescens are the main ingredients of Zuguangsan. Zuguangsan mainly has antifungal, antipruritic and keratin-dissolving effects through salicylic acid. Sophora flavescens can inhibit the growth of many skin fungi, such as Trichophyton rubrum; benzoic acid is a disinfectant and preservative that has inhibitory effects on common bacteria and fungi. Boric acid is used as a cross-linking agent for emulsified paraffin and can also be used as an antibacterial agent.

Zuguangsan has a bactericidal effect on skin fungi (Trichophyton, Microsporum, Epidermophyton), an antibacterial effect on Malassezia, Candida and other yeasts, and also has a local bactericidal effect on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Its mechanism of action is to inhibit fungal squalene epoxidase, interfere with the biosynthesis of ergosterol in the fungal cell wall, affect the lipid metabolism of the fungus, damage or kill the fungal cells, and thus play a bactericidal and antibacterial role.

Therefore, Zuguangsan can treat diseases caused by fungi such as athlete's foot. However, since the salicylic acid ingredient is not suitable for long-term use, it is best not to use foot light powder for a long time.

At present, Zuguangsan is a safe and reliable drug, but it has been reported that the use of this product has caused contact dermatitis and occasionally severe dermatitis. Therefore, it is still necessary to use science.
