Active Ingredients:
beclometasone clotrimazole gentamycine
Therapeutic actions:
Beclometasone is a synthetic corticosteroid and is used to decrease inflammation in the skin. When applied to the skin it is absorbed into the skin cells. Here it works by preventing the release of certain chemicals from the cells. Clotrimazole is an antifungal medicine used to treat infections with fungi and yeasts. Clotrimazole kills fungi and yeasts by interfering with their cell membranes. It works by stopping the fungi from producing a substance called ergosterol, which is an essential component of fungal cell membranes. The disruption in production of ergosterol causes holes to appear in the fungal cell membrane. Gentamycine belongs to a class of antibiotics known as the aminoglycosides. Gentamicine is bactericidal in action (kills bacteria). It does this by causing the bacteria to produce defective proteins which are essential for their growth.
