Medical Description

Dermikem OC Plus cream is a topical medication used to treat inflammation and swelling caused by bacterial, fungal, or mixed skin infections. It contains clobetasol, neomycin, and miconazole as active ingredients. Clobetasol is a steroid with anti-inflammatory properties, while neomycin and miconazole are antibacterial and antifungal agents, respectively.

It's important to use Dermikem OC Plus cream externally only and not for any other skin condition without consulting a doctor. Follow your doctor's instructions for application, and don't use it on children under two years of age. For best results, use the cream for the prescribed duration. If the condition doesn't improve, contact your doctor.

After applying the cream, wash your hands and avoid getting the cream in your eyes. Keep the affected area clean, and don't touch healthy skin to prevent the spread of infection. You may experience some side effects, but they usually go away over time. If the side effects persist or worsen, report them to your doctor.

Other creams with the active ingredients clobetasol, neomycin, and miconazole include Lobate GM cream, Clobact GM cream, Sonaderm NM cream, Globet GM cream, and Cosvate NM cream. Before using Dermikem OC Plus cream, inform the doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding and about your detailed medical history.
