Mode of Action
How Does It Work?
Candipraz Oc Cream works by the combined action of its components.
Clobetasol Propionate is a steroid, which works by blocking the production of certain chemical substances in the body (prostaglandins) which cause itching, swelling and redness.
Itraconazole is an antifungal agent and works by interfering with the cell membranes of fungi, thus stopping their growth and eventually causing their death.
Ofloxacin inhibits bacterial DNA, thereby restricting their growth and eventually killing the bacteria.
Ornidazole destructs the DNA helical structure, which interrupts the protein synthesis and ultimately leads to the death of bacteria....
