Miconazole is a substituted imidazole, one of the azoles, and can be used to treat candidiasis and superficial dermatophytosis, tinea versicolor, Acanthamoeba, seborrheic dermatitis, and other skin infections. It is also active against Aspergillus, Cryptococcus neoformans, Pseudomonas borderi, and some Gram positive bacteria (such as Staphylococcus and Streptococcus).

Hydrocortisone is a naturally occurring glucocorticoid that is now prepared synthetically. Its important role is in skin damage such as inflammation. It also has antipruritic, antifungal, and vasoconstrictor activities.

Miconazole is an imidazole antifungal agent that can interfere with ergosterol synthesis, thereby changing the permeability of the cell membrane of sensitive fungi. This leads to the death of fungi, and when applied to the skin, hydrocortisone is absorbed into skin cells. It can prevent the release of certain chemicals that can cause inflammation. Therefore, hydrocortisone reduces inflammation.
