How Does It Work?

• Cobate Gm Cream contains a combination of clobetasol, gentamicin, miconazole, clotrimazole and chlorocresol as active substances.
• Clobetasol is a steroid that acts by blocking the production of a natural substance called prostaglandin, which is responsible for itching, swelling and redness.
• Gentamicin is an antibiotic agent which is widely used for treating various bacterial infections of the skin. It works by preventing the growth and multiplication of infection-causing bacteria.
• Miconazole and clotrimazole are antifungal medicines that work by preventing the formation of a fungal cell wall component. This leads to the formation of a defective cell wall which ultimately kills the infection-causing fungus.
• Chlorocresol is a disinfectant and antiseptic.

Interactions with other medicines

• Cobate Gm Cream is meant for external application on the skin and thus is less likely to interact with other medicines taken orally.

• Particular care should be taken if you are taking antifungal medicines like itraconazole, ritonavir which is used in HIV infections, antibiotics such as erythromycin, blood-thinning agents like warfarin and verapamil used in heart problems.
