Description
Fungi B Cream is an antifungal medicine used to treat skin infections caused by fungi, such as ringworm and fungal infections between the toes. Fungi B is a combination medicine containing beclometha
sone and clotrimazole. Beclomethasone is a steroid that works by blocking the synthesis of natural substances, i.e., prostaglandins, responsible for itching, swelling, and redness. Clotrimazole functions by inhibiting the formation of a component of the fungal cell wall, which leads to altered permeability and fungal growth, causing infection. This Cream is intended only for external application and should be applied precisely as recommended by your doctor.
