How Does It Work?

• During inflammation or infection of the skin, the body releases some chemical substances which make the skin red, itchy and swollen.
• Clobetasol is a steroid that acts by blocking the synthesis of natural substances like prostaglandins which are responsible for itching, swelling and redness.
• Miconazole works by inhibiting the formation of a fungal cell wall component which leads to altered permeability and growth of fungus causing infection.
• Neomycin is an antibiotic agent which is widely used for treating various bacterial infections of the skin. It works by inhibiting the growth and multiplication of the infection-causing bacteria.
• Zinc helps in maintaining the integrity of skin cells and promotes wound healing. Borax has antiseptic properties.
• Collectively all these medicines work more effectively by reducing the infection and inflammation of the skin.
