This combination cream treats skin conditions involving both fungal infection and inflammation. Clotrimazole tackles the fungal infection (like ringworm or athlete’s foot), while betamethasone reduces swelling, redness, and itching.
Apply a thin layer to the affected area twice daily. Clean and dry the area before application. Continue treatment for at least one week after symptoms disappear, usually for 2-4 weeks. Longer treatment might be necessary for severe cases. Consult a doctor if no improvement is seen after two weeks.
Common side effects include burning, stinging, or itching at the application site. Rarely, more serious reactions can occur. Stop use and seek medical advice if you experience unusual skin reactions or increased irritation.
This cream isn’t suitable for everyone. Avoid use on the face or near eyes unless specifically instructed by a doctor. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using this medication. Don’t use it if you’re allergic to clotrimazole, betamethasone, or any other ingredient.
| Prolonged use can cause skin thinning or stretch marks. Avoid using on large skin areas. |
| Store at room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children. |
