Adverse Reactions

The following adverse drug reactions are derived from product labeling unless otherwise specified.

Vaginal:

Postmarketing: Dermatologic: Burning sensation of skin, contact dermatitis (Abhinav 2015), contact hypersensitivity (Roller 1978), desquamation, erythema of skin, pruritus, skin blister, skin edema, skin irritation, stinging of the skin, urticaria

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to clotrimazole or any component of the formulation.

OTC labeling: When used for self-medication, do not use vaginal cream if you have never had a vaginal yeast infection diagnosed by a doctor.

Warnings/Precautions

Concerns related to adverse effects:

• Local irritation: If irritation/sensitivity develops, discontinue therapy and institute appropriate alternative therapy.

Dosage form specific issues:

• Benzyl alcohol and derivatives: Some dosage forms may contain benzyl alcohol; large amounts of benzyl alcohol (≥99 mg/kg/day) have been associated with a potentially fatal toxicity (“gasping syndrome”) in neonates; the “gasping syndrome” consists of metabolic acidosis, respiratory distress, gasping respirations, CNS dysfunction (including convulsions, intracranial hemorrhage), hypotension and cardiovascular collapse (AAP ["Inactive" 1997]; CDC 1982); some data suggests that benzoate displaces bilirubin from protein binding sites (Ahlfors 2001); avoid or use dosage forms containing benzyl alcohol with caution in neonates. See manufacturer's labeling.

Other warnings/precautions:

• Appropriate use: Topical: For external use only; avoid contact with the eyes. Not effective for treatment of scalp or nails. When used for self-medication, discontinue use and contact a healthcare provider if there is no improvement in 2 weeks (jock itch) or 4 weeks (athlete's foot, ringworm).

• Self-medication (OTC use): Vaginal: When used for self-medication (OTC), consult a health care provider before use if experiencing vaginal itching and discomfort for the first time, frequent vaginal yeast infections (eg, monthly, 3 in 6 months), or exposure to HIV. A mild increase in vaginal itching, burning, or irritation may occur with use; a health care provider should be consulted before switching to another agent if patient does not experience complete relief. Discontinue use and contact a health care provider if symptoms do not improve in 3 days or last more than 7 days, or if symptoms of a more serious condition occur (eg, abdominal pain, back/shoulder pain, fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, foul-smelling vaginal discharge). For vaginal use only; do not use tampons, douches, spermicides, or other vaginal products or have vaginal intercourse during treatment.

Progesterone: Antifungal Agents (Vaginal) may decrease therapeutic effects of Progesterone. Risk X: Avoid

Sirolimus (Conventional): Clotrimazole (Topical) may increase serum concentration of Sirolimus (Conventional). Risk C: Monitor

Tacrolimus (Systemic): Clotrimazole (Topical) may increase serum concentration of Tacrolimus (Systemic). Risk C: Monitor

Reproductive Considerations

Vaginal products may weaken latex condoms and diaphragms (CDC [Workowski 2021]).

Pregnancy Considerations

Clotrimazole is minimally absorbed following topical or vaginal administration.

Based on available data, vaginal use of clotrimazole is not associated with an increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes (Czeizel 1999; Czeizel 2004; Daniel 2018; Farr 2021; Papadopoulos 2024; Rotem 2018).

Topical azole therapies with 7-day regimens are recommended in pregnant patients with vulvovaginal candidiasis (CDC [Workowski 2021]). Shorter courses of topical azoles are less effective (Young 2001).

Monitoring Parameters

Hypersensitivity, local irritation.

Mechanism of Action

Binds to phospholipids in the fungal cell membrane altering cell wall permeability resulting in loss of essential intracellular elements

Pharmacokinetics (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Absorption: Topical: Negligible through intact skin; Intravaginal: 3% to 10% of dose is absorbed

Time to peak, serum: Vaginal cream: ~24 hours
